Belong's restorative justice serivce at HMP The Mount, a Category C male prison in Hemel Hempstead, provides hope, rehabilitation and recovery for prisoners. The service enables prisoners to peacefully resolve conflicts that they have in prison, whether conflicts are with other prisoners or with staff members. It also helps individuals to build positive relationships, healthy conflict resolution skills and access support with disadvantages they face. HMP The Mount prison holds sentenced men aged 21 years and over, with sentences ranging from a few weeks to life.
As part of the service, Belong offers prisoners the chance to take part in restorative justice to move forward after violent or antisocial behaviour incidents at the prison. For prisoners who have committed violence or antisocial behaviour at HMP The Mount, restorative justice is a chance to take responsibility for their harmful behaviour and to receive support to tackle the root causes of this behaviour. For prison staff members or prisoners who have been victims of violent or antisocial behaviour incidents, restorative justice provides a safe space to share with harmers the impact of that violence and antisocial behaviour has had on them. It also gives victims of violence and antisocial behaviour support to cope and recover after these incidents.

Internally your job title will be Recovery Worker.
You’re caring, flexible and creative, thrive under pressure, know how to connect with people at all levels and really enjoy helping others to live as independently as possible. You’d also like to be part of an organisation that counts on the professionalism, insight, expertise and passion of its staff to inspire individual recovery for the people they work with. Welcome to Waythrough (formally Richmond Fellowship’s) Abbots Bank as a Mental Health Recovery Worker.
Abbots Bank is a mental health, supported housing and community based service, working to a recovery model. We provide a range of support services for people with mental ill health to access in their local community, including outreach support, peer support and supported housing. We have been operating in the area for a number of years and offer a staffed service to our residents aged 18 and upwards.
We know that recovery can look and feel very different to each and every one of us. But we also know that if we provide the right support, at the right time, we can inspire recovery nationwide and that recovery is possible for everyone. That’s where you come in. Responsible for helping and inspiring the people who use our services to maintain their tenancy and independence in the community, we’ll rely on you to work with them to come up with a personal support plan that will see them achieve their goals and aspirations.

More important is your caring and compassionate nature and empathy and enthusiasm for helping others. Whatever your background, you’ll need to be happy to work both independently and within a team and willing to be part of a weekly rota system and available for weekends.
In return for your skills and enthusiasm, this role comes with some really great benefits and excellent training and development opportunities.

Approach Social Work (formerly known as the Frontline programme)
Designed and delivered by social work charity Frontline, we teach social work differently.

You’ll gain the technical knowledge and build on your relational skills. We’ll give you the time and support to develop your approach, with confidence.
You earn while you learn, and once you gain your qualification you’ll step right into a job. And through our Frontline Fellowship, you’ll join a network of peers intent on transforming social work practice in England.

Could your expertise in data migration and CRM systems help us successfully implement Dynamics 365? Are you ready to make a real impact by guiding our data migration process to the next level?
We have an excellent opportunity at the Motor Neurone Disease (MND) Association for an experienced CRM Project Data Lead. As a CRM Project Data Lead, you will support the successful migration of data to our new Dynamics 365 platform on a 9-month Fixed Term Contract. In this role, you'll collaborate with internal teams and external delivery partners to ensure a smooth and accurate transfer of data.
Your key responsibility will be leading the data migration process, from mapping and cleaning data, to ensuring it aligns with our new CRM structure. You'll work closely with our delivery partner to transform data from Raiser's Edge into Dynamics 365, ensuring all data is correctly mapped and validated before migration. Part of your role will involve minimising disruptions during any downtime and advising on potential risks or training gaps that may arise throughout the project.
You will be responsible for ensuring the quality of the migrated data, checking for losses, inaccuracies, or duplications, and developing a robust recovery plan for the migration process. You will also work alongside our delivery partner to carry out thorough testing and validation to ensure the data transfer is accurate and meets the needs of the organisation.
Additionally, you'll support the documentation of data structures and migration processes, keeping stakeholders informed of any data changes or updates. Working closely with the senior leadership team, you will provide advice to guide data-led decision-making throughout the project.
This role also involves supporting team training on data standards and the use of Dynamics 365, helping the organisation transition to the new system smoothly.
If you have a strong background in CRM data management and migration, we'd love to hear from you.
What are we looking for?
Experience within a Data Lead or Data Manager role and a strong background in CRM migration projects, ideally involving Microsoft Dynamics CRM. You'll have an excellent understanding of data management, migration methodologies, and CRM structures, with hands-on experience in tools such as SQL and data mapping, ELT processes and data validation.
Your experience working on large-scale CRM implementations with third-party delivery partners will be essential, as will your ability to manage data validation and ensure a smooth transition to the new platform.
You'll need excellent analytical skills to interpret data and resolve complex issues, alongside strong organisational and project management abilities. Collaboration and communication skills are key, as you will be working closely with cross-functional teams to achieve successful outcomes.
