Employment & Skills Officer

As part of Achieve in B&NES, I lead and support a variety of skills projects, from application stage through to operational delivery. Working with my project team and with partners, my focus is on supporting residents overcome barriers to employment and skills, helping to create a diverse talent pool for businesses to recruit from. As well as projects I sit on a number of networks covering different themes and issues, developing the skills offer in B&NES. I also work closely with the West of England Combined Authority to deliver programmes with local and regional benefits, such as Skills Connect.

Marketing & Digital Project Apprentice

I research, prepare, and develop the messaging of Achieve in B&NES to maximise our audience offering information, advice, and guidance around employment and skills. I capture the strategy and objectives of Achieve in B&NES and the needs our residents and businesses, and I am responsible for delivering high quality content on time and on budget that meets my brief. This content is used on Achieve in B&NES website, X and LinkedIn.

Employment and Accessibility Officer

I lead on Section 106 which supports local residents with work placements, apprenticeships and jobs with local projects/contractors. I also lead the board and work closely with Bath College, set up and lead on the Kickstart programme, which supports hardest to reach into work.

Project Officer – Employment & Skills Pod

I welcome local residents to the Employment & Skills Pod, as the first point of contact by phone, and support the project to ensure we achieve our service goals as part of the Skills Connect - West of England Combined Authority project.

Careers Progression Coach

I work with participants who are already employed or self-employed. As a Career Coach, I help people work out what they want to achieve in their working life and support them as they work towards this goal. This is individual to the participant, but it can include developing confidence, new skills, and working towards a promotion or higher pay. I can help participants work out what is holding them back and direct them to other forms of support if they need it.

Administrator

I provide administrative support for the Future Bright team, supporting coaches behind the scenes. I enable local residents to improve their career prospects, skills, and pay.

Lead Project Officer

I engage with people with a learning disability, learning difficulties, and autistic people to find a way into paid work. Once a participant has been referred, we arrange to meet and enrol the person if we mutually feel the programme will be appropriate. We then start to look at job interests, and volunteering adult learning courses. We have had great success with participants in full and part-time work over the past year.

I reduce barriers to employment by building and maintaining the valuable relationships with partners in B&NES. I am passionate about supporting residents in B&NES to get access to training and career development opportunities they need to be successful. I attend a number of network events and meetings to understand and build on the skills offer within B&NES. I work closely with the West of England Combined Authority to deliver programmes with local and regional benefits, such as Skills Connect.
