MentorMe Project Liaison Officer
Salary £22,800, 4 days a week (£28,500 FTE)
Could you empower people with a criminal conviction, and volunteers to mentor them, by delivering a goals-based mentoring programme for meaningful, crime-free lives?
Sixty-One is a Bristol-based charity providing relational and practical support to men and women with a criminal conviction and the motivation to change. We also seek to inspire, engage and equip the church and individual Christians to join our work as a practical expression of Jesus’ love for people on the margins.
MentorMe, Sixty-One’s mentoring project for people with a criminal conviction, is looking for a Project Liaison Officer, 4 days a week (30 hours)
Are you: Passionate about supporting people who have experience of the Criminal Justice System?
Do you: Have experience of working with people with complex needs?
Could you: Bring your excellent people, training and mentoring skills, to our team?
Our work includes supporting people with convictions for violent and sexual offences. In light of the fact that some individuals who we support will be unable to have a female case worker, there is an occupational requirement for this role to be filled by a man (biological male).
A full and active understanding of the Christian faith and Jesus’ teachings as well as the church landscape are key to this role. It is also considered that the need to support mentors (currently) drawn exclusively from churches – for instance with prayer support – and the need to personally
model the work of Sixty-One to churches and mentors requires the role to be undertaken by a professing Christian. It is considered that these occupational requirements fall within the exceptions in the Equalities Act 2010.
To apply, please visit our website www.sixty-one.org and download an application form. Please complete this, along with an Equalities Monitoring form, and return by midnight on Thursday 23rd April 2026 (applications to be sent by email to alisonp@sixty-one.org or by post to our office address on the website).
It is important to refer to the person specification in the job description when completing section five of the application form.
Interviews will be held w/c Tuesday 5th May 2026
Sixty-One supports people with a criminal conviction to lead meaningful crime-free lives. We do this by inspiring, enabling and empowering the local community to provide the relational and practical support people need in, and on leaving prison, through:
Mentoring, Hubs, Gift Projects and Partnerships
All our programmes help people to reach their goals, re-discover hope, reconnect with community and become all that they were meant to be.
We believe that if people are motivated and ready, then with the right support, positive change is possbile.
