Specialist Advisors at Jobcentres

The request was partially successful.

Dear Department for Work and Pensions,

1. How many different types of ‘specialist advisors’ (e.g. Disability Employment Advisors; Lone Parent Advisors; ‘social justice’ advisors) are there? I understand that they may be called different things in different districts, so please categorise each by broad purpose/group they support.

2. For each broad type of specialist advisor, please provide information on:
a. How many exist within JCP nationally as of the most recent data collected?
b. How many existed within JCP nationally, broken down by each financial year since 2011/12?

3. Please provide any official guidance relating to suggested case-loads for specialist advisors of all types.

4. Please provide model job descriptions for specialist advisors of all types.

Yours faithfully,
Liam Crosby
