Do you have experience in supporting vulnerable adults and empowering them to move forward with their journey

Walking With the Wounded (WWTW) supports those who have served in the British Armed Forces and their families specialising in developing pathways to independence.

We currently have an exciting opportunity for a Veterans Liaison and Officer (VLSO) to join a team providing support to ex-armed forces personnel. You will be home-based with a caseload spread across Hertfordshire and occasionally adjoining counties.

We are looking for a dedicated individual who will empower ex-service personnel to regain their independence after a period of Mental Health (MH) Crisis supporting them to thrive and contribute to our communities. This role will join a team of existing VLSOs across the East of England as part of a wider collaborative team within NHS Englands Op Courage - the Veterans Mental Health and Wellbeing service and will work with other service charities and local support services. You will be home based with daily travel around your local region to support your clients and build relationships in the community whilst working as part of the wider regional WWTW and NHS clinical teams.

We are looking for a highly motivated self-starter with prior experience of working with vulnerable adults; an individual who can work independently to set priorities that accurately reflect the clients needs. Your role will be to work with clients in the community (or their homes) facilitating intense support and analysing individual needs to create a support plan that will break down barriers to a successful stabilisation whilst navigating their mental health pathway.

In return we will provide you with the opportunity to demonstrate and develop your skills and career as a Veterans Liaison and Support Officer in a supportive inclusive this role no two days are the same and every day will bring new challenges. Internal training will be provided and we encourage our staff to develop their own personal and professional skills.
