Gateway Project Worker CE position online

Gateway is advertising for a new Project Worker CE position which might be of interest.  Please feel free to circulate and see  www.jobsireland.ie for further details. Deadline for applications via Intreo  is 5pm on 4^th February 2016. Attached is the job spec with job reference: ES-1007696 and information on Community Employment (CE) schemes. 

If interested in applying, it is very important that applicants first check their eligibility with their local INTREO office (local social welfare office) beforehand as not everyone is eligible for Community Employment (CE)– list of offices here: http://www.welfare.ie/en/Pages/Intreo---Contact-Information.aspx.  We advise that applicants also check with social welfare to find out how a change to a CE payment would affect entitlements and secondary benefits like living alone allowance etc.

How do I apply?

First Steps:

1. Read the information attached to this email to understand what Gateway is looking for in a new Project Worker.

2. Check www.jobsireland.ie for the Project Worker for Gateway Mental Health Association advert (CE Scheme is Bluebell Women’s Group, Supervisor is Siobhan Parnell).

3. Make a note of the JOB REFERENCE CODE: ES-1007696

4. Contact INTREO and arrange a meeting with the Employment Services Officer and ask them to put you forward for referral to the CE Scheme Sponsor. (a list of these offices are here: www.welfare.ie)

       

    Only candidates on the referral list will be requested to submit a current CV and cover letter for shortlisting for interviews.

Follow On Steps:

    Shortlisting will be done on the basis of the letter of application and CV in accordance with the job spec.

    Interviews will take place in mid February.
    If successful, the new Project Worker will start on the scheme once Garda Vetting has been processed – the successful person can choose to start earlier by volunteering if they wish as Garda Vetting takes approximately 6-8 weeks.

Please approach the local employment service for help needed with CVs and application letters - they can be very helpful and supportive (http://www.localemploymentservices.ie/ )

Best wishes and good luck to everybody interested.
