CV Screen is delighted to be recruiting a Youth Employment Adviser on behalf of a well-established Birmingham charity supporting disabled people and those with long-term health conditions. Based in East Birmingham, with regular outreach across local communities, this full-time role pays £30,000 and is a fantastic opportunity to deliver a Government-backed supported employment programme. You'll help economically inactive 18–25-year-olds into work and support them to stay there, making a real difference to young people's futures. It's ideal for someone who combines strong employer engagement skills with a genuine passion for inclusion.

Duties & Responsibilities

  • Engage eligible young people and local employers and bring them onto the programme
  • Provide one-to-one support, including employment profiling, action planning and benefits and back-to-work calculations

  • Offer in-work support to help clients stay in employment
  • Keep accurate case records and produce reports for managers and funders

What Experience is Required

  • Experience supporting people with disabilities, mental health or other health conditions in an employment-focused setting
  • A track record in employer engagement, recruitment or sourcing jobs for clients
  • Confident IT skills, a flexible approach and the ability to travel locally (an enhanced DBS check will be required)

Salary & Benefits

£30,000 per annum for a full-time role of 36.5 hours per week. This is a fixed-term contract to March 2028, with the option to extend subject to funding, and you'll join a supportive, mission-driven team.
