Advocacy Worker Vacancy

Advocacy Worker Vacancy

Disability Sheffield is looking to recruit an advocacy worker to our team which seeks to provide an accessible high quality advocacy service to disabled people, supporting them to access health and social care services in Sheffield. The post includes the delivery of generic advocacy, with the aim of increasing our generic work output to respond to a growing waiting list due to the pandemic. This role is an entry level post into advocacy. You do not need to have done advocacy within a professional setting before, we will look at other experience you have.

Hours are 17.5 hours per week, with a salary of £27,109.00 (£13,554.50 actual salary).

The closing date for applications is 9am on Monday 4th April 2022.

Interviews will be held on Thursday 7th April 2022.

A fantastic presentation thought provoking and good questions from the floor around promoting this film/message to the general public not just professionals.

Disability Sheffield is a forward-thinking, energetic organisation doing a lot of positive work in Sheffield. I have no doubt they will continue to do so for a long time to come.

When I moved to Sheffield nearly five years ago it was my "go to" organisation. I expect it to stay that way. All the staff and volunteers seem to pull out little gems of effort that disabled people like me couldn't do without. Professionally and personally - I love em :)
