Citizens Advice North Lincolnshire
This is an opportunity for you to join an established charity that has an excellent reputation locally as a trusted partner and as a great place to work. You ll be a part of a small, but committed team with big ambitions that works cohesively and effectively together to get things done.
You will focus on providing debt and money advice and casework but will also have a strong understanding of wider advice issues that are impacting your clients including benefits, housing and energy. Your advice will help people to understand their rights and responsibilities by exploring their problems in depth, proactively encouraging clients to take responsibility for completing actions to resolve problems themselves and taking responsibility for cases and advocating on behalf of clients where appropriate.
You ll work closely with our key partners across North Lincolnshire within the statutory and voluntary and community sectors and ensure clients receive a good quality and holistic service that supports individuals to remove the financial and psychological barriers to achieving positive outcomes and build resilience for the future.
This role is offered both on a trainee and a qualified basis. For the trainee position we re not necessarily looking for someone who has previous experience working within the advice sector, as long as you re empathetic and able to provide person-centred support in a non-judgemental way we can provide full training.
