Volition Community
We identify volunteer roles for unemployed people in partnership with Jobcentre Plus. At the same time we bring a sharp focus to their employability and skills needs, and create a structured pathway to support them back to work. Crucially, we engage employers as partners.
My role is primarily maintaining and establishing referrals to Volition from across the Jobcentre Plus network in Greater Manchester. To work with Jobcentre Plus staff across the Greater Manchester prison network to secure direct referrals onto the Volition programme; to liaise with existing employer partners who are receptive to offering work trials and other opportunities that assist the move of long-term unemployed into work, and to grow the employer network.
