Full job description

S haw Trust promotes team spirit, inclusiveness and it is an organisation where everybody is somebody. I am proud to be part of this great organisation.”

At Shaw Trust we believe everyone has the right to live a decent and dignified life and an opportunity for rewarding work. We are a social purpose organisation challenging inequality and breaking down barriers to enable social mobility.

For us being part of the solution is about creating the conditions for this to happen, advocating and delivering services that make a real difference. Working in partnership not competition, we are part of an eco-system of purpose-led organisations, striving for a fairer, more equal society centred on opportunity for all.

Purpose

As an Employment Specialist, your mission is to empower individuals with mental health support needs by helping them secure sustainable employment in alignment with their preferences (meaningful to them) in order to rebuild their lives.

You will deliver the Individual Placement and Support (IPS) approach, providing person-centred guidance to clients while fostering positive relationships with local employers. Your role within community mental health teams or early intervention psychosis teams will support a holistic approach to recovery through employment.

This is a highly people-focused, community-based role. You will:

Meet clients in the community or mental health settings

Support individuals with job goals, applications, and interviews

Charity or voluntary sector

Coaching, mentoring, or careers advice

Recruitment, HR, or customer advisory roles

Customer-facing leadership roles (e.g. retail, hospitality)

If you’re passionate about people and making a difference, we’ll support you to learn the IPS delivery approach.

If you’re looking for a role where you can genuinely change lives—and be part of a team that values purpose, inclusion, and impact—we’d love to hear from you.

Essential:
You will have:
A people-centred approach

Demonstratable passion to help people with mental health and physical barriers into good employment

Be able to work consistently to targets

Experience/understanding of working with people with mental health support needs, or a similar client group within health, social services or the voluntary sector

Resilience and initiative

Excellent communication skills

Able to work 100% of the time in the community or in a mental health treatment hub

A strong communicator who can build trust quickly

Organised and able to manage a varied workload

Resilient and able to work independently

Professional in your approach and presentation

Motivated to achieve positive outcomes for others
