Community Advice & Engagement Manager

Citizens Advice Bury & Bolton (CABB) is a leading provider of legal advice and information, supporting thousands of clients every year. We are a busy, client focused and dynamic service with a track record of delivering high quality advice face to face, over the phone and digitally.

Our communities are facing unprecedented challenges with rising costs. The rising cost-of-living continues to directly impact individuals and families, with more people than ever in negative budgets, debt and housing crises.

This role would provide direct line management to the following teams:

Client Services Team - the initial access points for up to 80% of clients accessing our services. From client facing work at our local town centre premises through to processing our online referral forms, this team is integral to ensuring that clients can access our services.

Volunteer Team – led by 2 part-time volunteer supervisors, our team of 30 volunteers deliver advice to clients over the phone and face to face. Delivering over 6000 hours of volunteering per year, this team has increased by 50% in the past 12 months and is continuing to grow across the organisation.

Community Outreach Team – responsible for delivering community outreach advice sessions across Bury and Bolton, as well as representing CABB in local/ neighbourhood meetings and building relationships with key community stakeholders. This team attended over 700 sessions in 2025, and with increased resources we now envisage this to continue increasing, ensuring we are delivering advice to our clients in the spaces and places they feel comfortable in, removing barriers to advice.

These teams collectively make up our client access points, in 2025-2026 supporting over 16,000 clients to access our services and receive information, guidance and advice.

There’s no ‘average’ day for our teams – each client, case and community location is different. You will be responsible for supporting these teams, enhancing the service and ensuring that we are able to provide high quality information, guidance and advice to clients when they access our services.

You will be part of the Delivery Leadership Team, a well-established team of managers responsible for their areas of specialist advice.

This is a fantastic opportunity for personal and professional development, where you will be fully supported in this role, with development opportunities available.
