    Full time
    Description

    Employment Specialist

    £29,182 - £30,547 inclusive per annum

    Hammersmith & Fulham

    You have recent experience in the mental health field (or a related area) and a good understanding of service user involvement, how the use of IPS (Individual Placement and Support) can help the people we support to find paid employment and have awareness of the Recovery and Personalisation agenda. All you need is the perfect environment to put your skills to great use. Welcome to Richmond Fellowship as an Employment Specialist .

    We need someone like you to join the team at our Hammersmith & Fulham Employment Service. We support people living with mental health problems to develop a sense of independence, purpose and fulfilment; to develop their social networks and gain the skills they need to return to work or training where this is their goal. But, we need your help. Your challenge? We help individuals with mental health problems to find paid employment, plus we assist employers and employees to successfully resolve mental health problems in the workplace.

    You will support the delivery of our Employment Service which will see you focus on motivating, supporting and providing person-centred advice and guidance to people receiving support to enable them to move into suitable and sustainable work.

    As well as a good understanding of people with mental health problems, you have experience of networking/liaising with local employers and the initiative to develop and promote a service. Excellent motivational, presentation and listening skills are essential too, as is a willingness to travel in the local area and occasionally work outside of office hours. Customer focused, well organised and collaborative in approach, you are a great administrator and pride yourself on your word processing skills and ability to keep accurate computer records/use a database. A flexible approach to working to ensure effective service delivery is essential.

    This is a full-time role requiring the post holder to work 37.5 hours per week.
