Help Create Employment Opportunities That Change Lives
At MacIntyre, we believe everyone deserves the chance to live a "gloriously ordinary life." For many people, that includes meaningful paid work, learning new skills, earning their own money, and being valued as an equal part of their community.
We are looking for an experienced, values-driven Employment Engagement Officer to support a 2-year project to strengthen and expand our supported employment pathways and supported internships across MacIntyre. This is a senior, high-impact position designed for a professional with a proven track record who is looking for a genuine step up into national strategic delivery.
Why This Role Matters
The opportunity in front of us is huge, and official figures tell a stark story:
-
6% of Adults with Learning disabilities are in paid employment, compared to 76% of the general population
-
4 out of 5 people with a Learning Disability want to work
(Sources: Department of Health and Social Care / Office for National Statistics)
Most people with a learning disability and many autistic people want to work. With the right support and the right employers, they thrive. Closing this gap is exactly what this role exists to do.
