About the role

North & West Gloucestershire Citizens Advice are looking for an enthusiastic individual to join the Projects Team and make a real difference in their community.

This is an opportunity for you to join an established charity that has an excellent reputation for the provision of high-quality advice and is a great place to work. You’ll be part of a team committed to working together and with partner agencies to achieve the best outcomes we can for our clients.

This role is a key part of the new Advice First Aid Project. You will support vulnerable residents with issues such as Benefits, debts, housing and employment and take referrals from Frontline workers across the districts. You will enjoy building relationships with local frontline teams so you can work together to support people. Working from our offices, as well as community settings such as foodbanks, libraries and hubs, you will provide holistic advice and casework support to local residents.

This role is part of an exciting pilot project , jointly delivered by Stroud and Cotswold Districts Citizens Advice so part of the role includes collecting information to report to the funder.

If you do not have the experience for this role, we have a training programme which will provide you with the skills, knowledge, and experience you need, as well as a career opportunity which could lead to professional progression within the service.
