Personal Advice and Outreach Co-ordination
Closing Date: THIS OPPORTUNITY HAS NOW CLOSED
West London Working brings together the partners responsible for employment and skills to tackle the high and persistent number of West London residents not in employment. It is one of 15 City Strategy Pathfinders launched by the Department for Work and Pensions in April 2007. The Pathfinders cover cities across Britain, testing how best to build a partnership of government agencies, local government and the private and voluntary sectors to help more jobless people to find and progress in work. Pathfinder partnerships aim to join up employment and skills provision and increase its effectiveness. In return, DWP has provided dedicated funding, and the opportunity for Pathfinders to flex national policies according to local needs.
Personal Advice and Outreach
West London Working is currently working with the London Boroughs of Brent, Ealing, Hammersmith and Fulham, Harrow, Hillingdon and Hounslow to develop innovative projects that address outreach and/or personal advice at a local level.
These projects are designed to test approaches to increase the number of residents accessing employment services, targeting residents hardest to reach, improving right first time referrals and increasing the number of residents who successfully achieve their goals.
The Role
We are seeking a provider that can offer a range of support to our 6 projects including recruitment and training as well as to deliver an external evaluation on the success of the programme.
