You will work at a regional and strategic level, providing management and leadership to a team of Peer Mentor Coordinators with the aim of working with stakeholders to reduce reoffending through improving the engagement of people on probation. Embedding this work into probation aligns to the organisation approach to rehabilitation set out in the rehabilitation strategy, delivered through the implementation of the Lived Experience Charter.

Equally, you will deliver skilled leadership within the PS to influence the Engaging People on Probation agenda, alongside the Lived Experience Charter, including improving performance, quality, and outcomes.

This work will make a key contribution to reducing reoffending and reducing the number of victims of crime that will support HMPPS’ shared goals with the rehabilitation strategy.
