ABOUT ONLY CONNECT:

We are Only Connect. We may be small, but we’re perfectly formed and we’re on a mission to transform the lives of young people with experience of the criminal justice system. We do this by helping Londoners aged 16+ live more fulfilling and crime-free lives. By encouraging people to harness their own potential, we help progress people who join our Centres (our “Members”) onto education, training and employment (ETE).

PURPOSE OF ROLE:

As a Frontline Executive, your principal responsibility will be to deliver casework and interventions as part of the NOMS CFO3 programme in the Community and HMP Feltham. We may also require you to work from Pentonville HMP. This is a government-funded voluntary programme designed to help young people as they leave custody and return to their communities and/or are already within the community with a history of offending.

You will be expected to work inside prison to identify and recruit appropriate enrolments onto the CFO3 programme, manage a caseload of enrolments and deliver one to one/group sessions inside and outside of the prison settings and/or successfully transition enrolments to the external Only Connect provision. Additionally you will be aware of Only Connect’s work on CFO3 across 3 prisons, ensuring targets are met for your brief and the work is consistently delivered to a high standard. You will be expected to constantly evaluate and track progress against the contract criteria and OC monitoring requirements to ensure this project achieves clear outcomes. You will be expected to deliver consistency and quality through excellent planning, consultation, stakeholder management and on-going delivery management

SPECIFIC ACCOUNTABILITIES:

·  Drive the delivery of the CFO3 programme in the community centres and HMP Feltham, with primary responsibility for resettlement casework support in the prison. We may also require you to work in HMP Pentonville.

·  Work alongside caseworkers and YOT workers to identify and enrol appropriate candidates for the CFO3 programme, working towards a set number of enrolments each month.
