Company Description
Catch22 exists to help build a society where everyone has a good place to live, good people around them, and a fulfilling purpose. We call these our ‘3Ps’.
We achieve this in two ways: we improve lives through frontline delivery of public services, and we use our knowledge to change ‘the system’ by fixing the complex web that can trap and disempower those it was set up to help. With the heart of a charity and the mindset of a business, we are uniquely placed to deliver on this challenging agenda.
Job Description
As a Financial Wellbeing Advisor within Catch22’s Justice team in London, you will play a key role in supporting ex-offenders on probation, focusing on their financial needs. Working with adult males, you’ll explore the root causes of financial hardship and help address debt, benefits, and overall financial wellbeing to build their confidence in managing finances independently.
You will manage a caseload, conducting assessments and developing action plans, while collaborating with local agencies to deliver support. You'll also assist with accessing benefits, banking services, and financial entitlements. The role is autonomous but collaborative, with opportunities to improve service quality and share innovative ideas.
About You
You’re highly organized, process-driven, and able to manage workloads efficiently. With a keen eye for detail and strong writing skills, you ensure timely and high-quality case management. Proactive and resilient, you thrive under pressure and are quick to learn, ready to tackle new challenges in a fast-paced environment.
You’ll have experience in the Criminal Justice System or working with disadvantaged people, with a passion for making a positive impact.
