Role Profile


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 provide generalist level advice and casework focused on welfare benefits, housing and energy as well as offering non-monetary debt advice about priority debts and budgeting.

You'll help people to understand their rights and responsibilities by exploring their problems in depth. You'll proactively encourage clients to take responsibility for completing actions to resolve problems themselves. 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.


You'll really be able to make the role your own.

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'll be an important and valued member of the team and, with the support of Citizens Advice North Lincolnshire, will be responsible for ensuring people focused outcomes are met in a pressurised environment.
