Knowsley Council is an award-winning Local Authority, named Local Authority of the Year in the Municipal Journal Awards 2024.

We are an Accredited employer under the Liverpool City Region Fair Employment Charter, demonstrating that we are committed to the principle of fair employment and we are dedicated to providing a healthy, fair, inclusive and just workplace.

Help Build Knowsley's New Multi-Agency Team Supporting People Experiencing Multiple Disadvantage

Knowsley Council and partners are seeking applications from practitioners across the partnership to be part of the new Changing Futures Multi-Agency Team.

Changing Futures is a national programme designed to improve outcomes for people experiencing multiple disadvantage, including homelessness, substance misuse, contact with the criminal justice system, domestic abuse and mental health. The programme aims to do more than support individuals; it aims to use learning from frontline practice to influence and improve the wider system.

We are creating a pioneering multi-agency team that will bring together professionals from different organisations to work differently around a shared cohort of individuals experiencing complex needs. The team will operate using relational, trauma-informed and strengths-based approaches, with a focus on building trusted relationships, reducing repeat crisis demand and improving long-term outcomes.

What Will the Team Do?

The team will provide intensive support to adults experiencing multiple disadvantage through:

Small caseloads.
Assertive outreach and engagement.
Multi-agency problem solving.
Flexible working across organisational boundaries.
Joint risk management.
System navigation and advocacy.
Identification of barriers within the system and opportunities for improvement.

Alongside direct work with individuals, team members will contribute to learning reviews, service development and system change activity.

Who Are We Looking For?

We are seeking people who:

Build positive, trusting relationships.
Are passionate about person-centred support.
Can work confidently with complexity and uncertainty.
Are committed to trauma-informed practice.
Can work collaboratively across agencies.
Are able to balance support, challenge and risk management.
Want to help shape a new way of working across Knowsley.

Assessment Centre

If Successful you will be invited to an assessment day designed to reflect the collaborative nature of the programme. Rather than focusing solely on interviews, the assessment will explore values, behaviours, relationship-building skills, professional judgement and ability to work within a multi-agency environment.

Why Join?

This is a unique opportunity to:

Help shape a flagship programme from the beginning.
Work within an innovative multi-agency team.
Develop expertise in trauma-informed and relational practice.
Influence wider system change.
Improve outcomes for some of Knowsley's most vulnerable residents.

Together, we can build a more coordinated, compassionate and effective system for people experiencing multiple disadvantage.

At Knowsley Council we will consider requests for flexible working. For most roles, the following types of flexibility are usually possible: flexible hours, working from home, compressed hours, part-time. There is a requirement for you to attend your work base at least 3 day’s per week.

We welcome applications from residents and beyond, regardless of background, belief, or identity, recognising the value that diversity brings to our organisation. We particularly welcome applications from individuals from Black and Minority Ethnic backgrounds and candidates with disabilities as we acknowledge their underrepresentation in our workforce.

Please note sponsorship is not available for this role.
