Our aims are to provide the independent, impartial, confidential and free advice people need for the problems they face and to improve the policies and practices that affect people’s lives.​

We target our services at the most vulnerable in our community with our client profile closely matching local indices of deprivation. We identify trends to ensure our services remain agile and able to respond to changing and emerging advice needs.​

About the Role

We are looking for a dedicated Advice Support Worker to join our well-established family advice service based at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH).

You'll play a key role in ensuring the smooth running of the service through administrative, organisational and communication tasks that enable our Advisers to deliver high quality social welfare advice and casework.​

​The ideal candidate will have strong administrative experience—ideally within the advice or charity sector—along with a working knowledge of issues such as welfare benefits or housing. Excellent IT, organisational and communication skills are essential, as is a sensitive and client-focused approach within a hospital environment. You will need to be able to work both independently and as part of a small supportive team. This hybrid role includes regular on-site presence at GOSH and requires the successful candidate to meet the honorary staff requirements of the hospital, including passing an enhanced DBS check and completing mandatory training.​
