Prison Careers Advisor, Brixton

You will have a huge impact on peoples lives.  This charity has won awards for being a great employer.   There is lots of career progression (the hiring manager is on his 3rd promotion in a short period of time). Based out of HMP Brixton, you will provide careers advice and guidance to prisoners.  80% of all new prisoners will have an action  plan, which will assess their qualifications, literacy and numeracy, work experience and their long and short term goals.  You will then provide one to one coaching and support, as well as group work such as CV writing workshops and non-accredited qualifications. This is a nice role.  No demanding KPI’s or targets.  And if you have a passion for supporting offenders to rehabilitate then this will be a great fit.  An essential criteria for the role is a careers advice qualification such as IAG (Information Advice and Guidance) or CIAG (Careers, Information, Advice and Guidance) or Diploma in Career Guidance and Development. Please apply via this advert.  If you would like to find out more, we are easy to speak to, just call the office and ask for James or Lawrence (telephone number on the Red 5 People website). This role would suit people with the above mentioned qualifications who might have previously worked if not as a careers advisor, but as an employment advisor or employment consultant (or similar).
