Current vacancies
Social Inclusion Worker (MAO North Team)
SOCIAL INCLUSION WORKER (Manchester Assertive Outreach - North Team)
£18, 270 pa + 5% pension contribution + anti-social hours payments
Social Inclusion has a key part to play in supporting people to access services and activities within their own communities. To ensure that this happens we are looking for a creative, innovative person with excellent engagement skills and a positive approach to team-working and working with people with complex needs. You will need to be a team worker but also not afraid to take the lead when needed and we would expect that you will have experience working with people with mental health needs and/or with people who are hard to reach. If you have also had experience of using mental health services this may well be an advantage.
As part of a team work approach you would be providing specific support to people using Assertive Outreach to access identified opportunities around employment, voluntary work, educational and leisure both within service settings and within the local community.
We will not expect you to have a recognised qualification but being able to show evidence of continued professional development would be seen as positive.
