Welfare Rights Officer (Fixed-Term) - Renfrewshire Citizens Advice Bureau

The Welfare Rights Officer will ensure the provision and development of quality advice, information and representation on statutory benefits, and other social welfare matters as appropriate within the area of benefit of Renfrewshire Citizens Advice Bureau. This will be achieved by way of casework and specialist support services to Bureau volunteers and paid staff of the Bureau, social work, health and voluntary sector practitioners.

The Welfare Rights Officer will have particular regard to the requirements of “persons in need” within the Bureau’s area of benefit, and to assist in developing responsive and effective systems of service to address those requirements.
