Engagement Job Coach
Restart – Home based
Full time – 37.5 hours per week
Salary – up to £29,000.00 per annum depending on experience, plus Serco Benefits.
Main Purpose:
To successfully manage a range of contact activities across multiple customer groups including JCP staff and scheme Participants.
Engagement Job Coaches will support the efficient Warm Handover booking process, receiving calls from JCP Work Coaches and booking appointments with Progression Job Coaches. They will also support two critical operational aims through direct contact with Participants: reducing the number of disengaged Participants on the scheme by re-engaging Participants who are not attending appointments and supporting sustainability to the Job Outcome point for Participants who are in employment by making contact with Participants in work. Contact will primarily be via telephone, although other contact channels may also be employed to maximise successful contacts.
The Engagement Job Coach will be responsible for accurate record keeping of all contact attempts and will be required to liaise closely with Progression Job Coaches to ensure seamless delivery of services to Participants between the two teams. They will be a crucial point of contact with Participants, and as such will need to be engaging and supportive in all their interactions.
The Engagement Job Coach will also be required to act proactively and decisively when in-work calls highlight a risk or issue with the Participants sustainability to the outcome point. This may involve live job searching over the phone, referral to an EEC, liaison with the Employer or any other activities which will have a positive impact on the Participants employment.
