Full Job Description
You will be reporting to the Service Manager, Criminal Justice and Public Protection.
Your working pattern is Wednesday, Thursday, and Fridays. We are happy to talk flexible or hybrid working, where possible, depending on the needs of the service.
The purpose of this role is to supervise people who have been involved in offending behaviour and who will be undertaking unpaid work within the community. You will be working closely with the Court, Procurator Fiscal Service, Community Justice Partners and Third Sector Organisations.
You will have the ability to work as part of a team and on your own initiative, have a positive view of the welfare of all individuals and social circumstances, and have a responsible approach to sensitive information.
You will source and organise projects, placements and other activities that benefit both individuals and organisations in the community and which encourage attendees to develop their skills and reduce the likelihood of becoming involved in further offending behaviour.
The necessary qualification, experience and skills required for this role are detailed in the 'must have' section of the attached job profile. These criteria are used for decisions on shortlisting and appointment of applicants.
This post is a regulated role with adults and requires Level 2 disclosure with PVG Scheme membership.

About this company
Orkney Islands Council
View full company profileForget images of remote islands - Orkney is well served by superb modern transport links. Forget the idea of a few people in the middle of no-where - Orkney is home to over 20,000 people. Orkney may bring to mind certain images, but the chances are they are, to say the least, a little off the mark. Sure, we're a bit off the beaten track, but the needs of our community are just the same as anywhere else. And, as a result, the opportunities we can offer you are comparable with those you'll find elsewhere. Of course, there are a few differences: for starters Orkney consists of 100,000 hectares spread over 70+ small islands (19 of which are inhabited), so, like our service users, you'll need to make the most of the transportation links which are vital to Orkney's social and economic well-being. Orkney Islands Council may be the smallest local authority in Scotland, but we can offer some big challenges. And big opportunities. This could be your big chance to make the move, and make a difference. OIC has an impact on many aspects of everyday life. With around 1,800 staff, we are also the county’s biggest employer.
