User Voice exists to reduce reoffending by presenting the voice of offenders and ex-offenders to decision makers in the criminal justice system. We establish and support Prison, Probation, Youth and Community Councils; undertake projects which enable agencies to access and act upon the insights of offenders; and present the case for service user engagement to a wide range of key audiences.

We are seeking to appoint a Programme Manager to be primarily based and work in Essex but also support projects in the South East.

This is a fantastic opportunity to work in an innovative and growing charity. The primary role of the Programme Manager is to manage the development and delivery of a peer mentoring project with Essex Probation. The successful candidate will have responsibility for engaging staff and service users, delivering training and overseeing the delivery of this project.

User Voice particularly welcomes applications from ex-offenders and from all sections of the community regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, age or disability.

Interview dates TBC.

Applications will be dealt with on a first-come-first-served basis and an appointment may be made before the closing date.
