Engagement Worker – Adult Early Intervention and Prevention

Who we are

Positive Steps is a unique organisation and have been changing the lives of people in Greater Manchester since 1977. Our current offer involves supporting those in Education, Criminal justice, Family and Community and Safeguarding settings. We are at an exciting point in our development with a focus on growing our impact while reaching excellence in all our work. 

The Role

The main purpose of this role is to act as a keyworker delivering packages of support to adults to prevent escalation to more intensive services. Through undertaking an Early Help assessment and by working with clients in a person-centred way, you will help people on your caseload to make positive changes and to develop the skills and resilience to support sustainable change.

This is a hybrid role, meaning that you will be working from our central Oldham office, in clients’ homes and community settings according to business needs. For this role you will need to be confident in caseload management and the use of electronic recording systems.

If you have the required experience, are committed to making a difference and have great engagement skills with vulnerable adults then we look forward to receiving your application.
