About St Giles Trust and the Gwent BOOST Project

A well-established charity that helps ex-offenders and disadvantaged people to move their lives forward, St. Giles Trust offers support to help people overcome any issues that might be holding them back and move forward with their lives in a positive way.

The Gwent Helping End Homelessness Project (BOOST Building On Our Strengths Together) is a five year project supported by the National Lottery Community fund. St Giles and a wider consortium of Third sector and other well-established organisations will develop the value of lived experience for the benefit of those with lived experience - through a programme of peer mentoring, trauma informed care, training and co-production to strengthen opportunities for employment and make homelessness rare, brief, and non-recurrent.

About this vital role

Through our hub based in Newport our team will support and train women with lived-experience, who have faced disadvantage, to become professional advice, guidance and support workers, undertaking assured and accredited advice and guidance training and work placements whilst also receiving professional employment coaching and support.

- A proven track record of sourcing and supporting participants to access employment, training, personal development opportunities and other specialist support (housing, substance misuse, mental health)
- Strong experience of successfully supporting disadvantaged people into sustainable employment
- A background of career coaching and a sound understanding of career adaptability
- Excellent communication, interpersonal and organisational abilities, plus impressive attention to detail
- Sympathy with the aims and ethos of St Giles Trust as an organisation

In return, you can expect a competitive salary, generous leave allowance, staff pension, flexible working, a mentoring programme, an advice and counselling service, access to clinical supervision, season ticket loan and much more.
