We are looking for an experienced adviser to join our existing team of passionate and dedicated advisers, caseworkers, and financial capability workers to help people in Sefton with the problems they face. The post holder may be required to work from other office locations in Sefton and will deliver advice sessions in outreach locations such as job centres, mental health settings and community venues as required.

The adviser will provide a general advice service to members of the public; however, welfare benefits and debt are the dominant areas of advice needed. You will play a crucial role in improving the financial wellbeing of clients by ensuring they receive the correct welfare benefits, identifying and making grant and trust fund applications, and advising on income maximisation options. The adviser will work closely with the welfare rights and money advice teams in Citizens Advice Sefton and with Living Well Sefton partners, mentors, and neighbourhood partners.

Every local Citizens Advice is a registered charity. Different application procedures are adopted by individual local Citizens Advice. Contact the relevant one as outlined in the information about this role. You should not send an application form to national Citizens Advice.

All local Citizens Advice produce their own annual report, but you can find out more about the Citizens Advice network or download the latest national Citizens Advice annual report.
