Job Summary
Are you a proactive, organised and compassionate individual with a proven record of working with male adults in the criminal justice system, either in the community or in prisons? Do you have experience engaging successfully with challenging individuals such as those with complex needs, reluctance to discuss their needs, or those who are angry and confused?
If so, St Giles Trust is looking for a Personal Wellbeing Coach to join us and oversee the delivery of Personal Wellbeing services to referrals made by Wales Probation Service.
About St Giles Trust
An ambitious, well-established charity that helps people facing adversity to find jobs, homes, and the right support they need. We believe that individuals with firsthand experience of overcoming issues like offending, homelessness, addictions, and gang involvement are key to inspiring positive change in others.
St Giles is now a Kickstart employer, providing opportunities for 16-24-year-olds on Universal Credit at risk of long-term unemployment.
The Wise Group, a leading social enterprise, partners with St Giles to support Probation Resettlement reforms by offering high-quality services delivered by staff with lived experience and cultural competency. We have been awarded contracts to deliver Personal Wellbeing Services across North and South Wales, supporting community offenders and prison leavers, including families, emotional wellbeing, lifestyle, social inclusion, and meet-at-the-gates services.
About this opportunity
Working within a multi-agency team, you will provide person-centred support to service users serving community sentences or being released from prison. You will undertake assessments, create safe environments using trauma-informed practices, and build trusting relationships to facilitate support and interventions aimed at achieving specific outcomes.
You will develop and maintain positive relationships with external agencies, including probation and prisons, to support service users and meet contractual targets. Record activity and provide updates via CRM databases and reports are also essential duties.
What we are looking for
• Experience working with partner agencies in a multi-agency environment or establishing links to further project aims
• Level 3 in Advice and Guidance or equivalent
• Ability to assess client needs and provide tailored, client-led support through action planning, advice, guidance, advocacy, and coaching
• Sensitivity to clients' needs, applying trauma-informed strategies
• Strong IT, relationship-building, and communication skills, both verbal and written.
