Looking for something part-time, people-focused, and genuinely rewarding? This could be just the thing. We’re looking for someone to cover maternity leave from mid/late October to end of March (around 6 months) as part of a brilliant mental health support programme. It’s 30 hours per week. The current person has Fridays off, but we’re open to flexible patterns—like five shorter days (e.g. 10am–3pm). Full-time salary: £25,937 – £27,297 For 30 hours: approx. £22,190 – £23,337 What’s the role? You’ll support people with mental health challenges—often linked to autism or learning disabilities—helping them return to work, stay in work, or explore new options. Support is delivered over seven structured sessions, tailored to each person. It's not about rushing anyone into a job—it’s about realistic, wellbeing-focused outcomes. You’ll typically see 3–4 clients per day, working from the St Neots office (every Wednesday), as well as community spaces in Biggleswade, Bedford, and Leighton Buzzard. There’s also home working (flexible, no set days). Referrals come from Talking Therapies, GPs, and local charities. Why it’s a great fit You’ll join a supportive, down-to-earth team, with a solid induction and the freedom to manage your own diary. The project is funded until March 2026, and the charity often wins new contracts—so future opportunities are possible (not guaranteed). Who it’s for This role could suit someone with a background in mental health, advocacy, or employability. It’s also a great fit for people who’ve worked as a recruitment consultant, employment adviser, HR adviser, criminal justice support worker, or supported housing officer. If you’ve supported people one-to-one and can build trust in a calm, encouraging way, we’d love to hear from you. How to apply Apply via this ad—we reply to everyone.
