  • Skills in relationship-building, organisation and communication plus confidence using Microsoft Office and case management systems (ECINS knowledge is a bonus, but training will be provided).

We are also committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people/vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Some posts may be exempted under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and as such appointment to these posts will be conditional upon the receipt of a satisfactory response to a check of police records via Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).
We offer a wide range of benefits designed to attract, develop, and reward our employees such as 40 days annual leave (including Bank Holidays), flexible working and a generous pension plan

Responsibilities

As the Reducing Reoffending Project Officer, you will be the driving force behind a borough-wide effort to break the cycle of crime. Working across Wandsworth and Richmond, you will coordinate strategic delivery groups, manage impactful projects and forge powerful partnerships with statutory and community organisations.
You will work closely with HMP Wandsworth, the Police, Probation, and local services to identify gaps, build bridges and create a seamless support network for those most at risk of reoffending.
This is more than a project role – it is a chance to shape systems, influence strategy and be an advocate for change.
