Brighton & Hove City Council

Customer Support Officer - Adaptations

<h4>Job summary</h4>Please refer to Job Description<h4>Job description</h4><p>This is a permanent, non-operational role with no prisoner case-level responsibilities. </p><p>The role will sit within Prison Group Director (PGD) management structures, however, a heavy focus on and presence in establishments will be required (usually with time split between 1-3 prisons depending on complexity and demand at each establishment and local housing landscape) with the expectation that post holders will travel as and when required. </p><p>There are no line management responsibilities as part of this role, and we do not expect the post holder to have operational experience, although this may be advantageous when working within the establishment. </p><p>This role is an exciting opportunity to contribute towards the Government’s commitment to eliminate rough sleeping by the end of 2023/24. The post holder will be responsible for a cluster of 1-3 prisons, splitting their time flexibly between the prisons in their portfolio. Prisons that release low numbers to the UK will fall under the ‘consultancy’ category; for these, post holders will be expected to offer ad-hoc housing advice, but these prisons will not form part of their cluster. </p><p>The post holder will identify areas for improvement with respect to access to accommodation for prison leavers and will work in partnership with key strategic housing stakeholders, probation commissioned rehabilitative services (CRS), and Homelessness Prevention Teams (HPTs) to implement sustainable change. You will ensure that work between each prison and relevant HPTs continues to integrate, and that senior leaders across the agency are supported to improve the quality and use of data. </p><p>In order to offer informed support and guidance to Governors and their teams, the Strategic Housing Specialist will be required to understand, amongst other aspects, the security category of their base prison and the geographical locations to which prisoners will be released. Prison familiarisation training will be provided to ensure successful candidates have the fundamental knowledge they need to be effective in their roles. </p><p>For roles across the women's prison estate, post holders should adopt a trauma- informed and gender specific approach to their role. Post holders should ensure that all activities reflect and embrace the diverse nature of prison populations, including the individual resettlement needs of the female prison population. </p><h4>Person specification</h4>Please refer to Job Description<h4>Behaviours</h4><p>We'll assess you against these behaviours during the selection process:</p><ul><li>Changing and Improving</li><li>Working Together</li><li>Making Effective Decisions</li><li>Seeing the Big Picture</li><li>Communicating and Influencing</li></ul><h4>Benefits</h4>Alongside your salary of £39,803, HM Prison &amp; Probation Service contributes £11,530 towards you being a member of the Civil Service Defined Benefit Pension scheme. <a href="https://www.civilservicepensionscheme.org.uk/memberhub/joining-the-pension-scheme/benefits-of-the-pension-scheme/" target="_blank"> Find out what benefits a Civil Service Pension provides.</a><ul><li>Access to learning and development</li><li>A working environment that supports a range of flexible working options to enhance your work life balance</li><li>A working culture which encourages inclusion and diversity</li><li>A <a href="https://www.civilservicepensionscheme.org.uk/memberhub/joining-the-pension-scheme/benefits-of-the-pension-scheme/" target="_blank">Civil Service pension</a> with an employer contribution of 28.97%</li><li>Annual Leave</li><li>Public Holidays</li><li>Season Ticket Advance</li></ul><p><br><br>For more information about the recruitment process, benefits and allowances and answers to general queries, please click the below link which will direct you to our Candidate Information Page. <br><br>Link: <a href="https://justicejobs.tal.net/vx/candidate/cms/About%20the%20MOJ" target="_blank">https://justicejobs.tal.net/vx/candidate/cms/About%20the%20MOJ</a></p><h4>Things you need to know</h4><h4>Artificial intelligence</h4>Artificial intelligence can be a useful tool to support your application, however, all examples and statements provided must be truthful, factually accurate and taken directly from your own experience.
