Probation Caseworker – Citizens Advice Essex

Citizens Advice Essex, working as consortium lead for the Citizens Advice service in Essex, has been awarded grant funding from the Ministry of Justice to provide support to males on probation concerning their benefits entitlements, to provide any debt advice they need and to support them understand and access financial services. Services will be provided principally in Probation Offices throughout Essex, Southend, Thurrock and Cambridgeshire (PCC area).

We are therefore looking to recruit up to 7 new team members in multiple locations to support the delivery of this exciting project. Posts are available in a range of hours/FTE, depending on location. In all cases, we will be looking to recruit trained debt advisers or people with some experience in the provision of independent advice or, in the case of exceptional candidates, with experience in closely related fields and who, in that case, are able to undertake the necessary training to undertake this skilled and technically demanding role.

For posts assigned to Cambridgeshire, we would like to appoint postholders within a reasonable vicinity of the main probation venues.

If applying, please follow guidance carefully. CV’s without a personal statement or incomplete application forms will lead to the rejection of your application.
