Citizens Advice Darlington Redcar and Cleveland are recruiting to deliver our project funded Macmillan Welfare Benefits Adviser based at our Darlington office, providing a comprehensive Welfare Benefits advice service to individuals and families in need.
The role involves providing a holistic welfare benefits, employment, housing, and general advice service for people affected by cancer within a hospital setting and through multiple channels.
Our ideal candidate will have an understanding of the impact of cancer and previous experience in supporting clients. The worker will provide support and guidance to clients in understanding and accessing welfare benefits, ensuring they receive the appropriate financial assistance and support, including assistance with welfare benefits and mandatory reconsiderations.
