Financial Resilience Navigator

About us

We’re a thriving advice organisation that is part of the national Citizens Advice network. Our services are delivered by a team of around 40 paid staff and 60 volunteers. We have a typical annual turnover of £2 million and in addition to our core advice service, funded by Wandsworth Council, we have a range of projects funded by trusts, foundations and our local Integrated Care System.

Why we need you

We’re looking for two Financial Resilience Navigators to join us as we set up an innovative pilot project funded by Wandsworth Council. These roles involve providing holistic support to vulnerable households in order to improve their longer-term financial resilience and avoid the need to access crisis support. They involve giving generalist advice but their focus is acting as an advocate with a broad remit to facilitate access to and engagement with other services. Because of this, we’re open to applications from people with a background in social care, community-based support or similar.

We still want to hear from you if you don’t meet all the criteria in the person specifications – we’re happy to help you develop, learn and grow. Following interviews, we may be able to offer less experienced candidates development roles instead.

Our commitment to EDI

We’re passionate about promoting equity, valuing diversity and working inclusively. We welcome applications from all suitably qualified people but particularly people from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic groups and people with disabilities, as these groups are currently under-represented in our team.
