Description

Moneywise Plus, helps to boost the work and life opportunities of unemployed and disadvantaged people across Leicester and Leicestershire. Led by Reaching People, funded by the European Social Fund and The National Lottery Community Fund, the project is delivered through partner organisations, providing 1-2-1 adviser support to help people to overcome barriers to employment; build key financial and digital life skills and move people closer to their goals. We are looking for 2 delivery organisations to join the partnership.

The contract value is per organisation. The budget is based on 2 FTE staff (24 months of adviser delivery) and includes 15% for management and office costs, as per the funder's restrictions.

• 3 'soft outcomes' achieved by 60 clients showing improved financial, digital and social confidence.

Applications will be shortlisted against the following selection criteria. Organisations must:
• Have experience and expertise in providing effective, holistic, client focussed, 1-2-1 support and advice a) on a range of issues such as benefits, housing, money matters etc. b) to build financial, digital and employability skills and confidence.
• Have a track record of delivering successfully against targets, in target driven projects and ideally, ESF funded.
• Be well established and effectively networked within Leicester and/or Leicestershire to reach the project client group and referral partners.
• Be able to meet the robust financial and administrative, quality and audit requirements of the project at both organisation and adviser level.
• Bring added value to the Moneywise Plus project and partnership.
• Have the necessary organisational capacity, viability and financial standing to deliver.
