Role description and task arrangements
Integral debt relief worker 32 hours per week for Deventer/Olst-Wijhe
Your work
You support people who have financial worries (and often problematic debts) and cannot find a solution to them on their own. By solving or managing debt problems you give them the opportunity to participate again. You have your own caseload and you conduct intake and counseling interviews in which you examine solutions and offer support together with the client. Together you map out the current situation and make a concrete plan of action in which you describe how you will work towards the desired (financial) situation. You work from the principle of stress-sensitive service provision.
If there are debts, you bring these into focus, look for the causes and make a plan to prevent recurrence. You provide information and advice on financial facilities that can help your client. For other problems you guide the client to specialized institutions. If necessary, you handle a crisis situation.
You advise on the matching of income and expenses, take preventive measures to prevent relapse and help the client to keep agreements made. You supervise clients during the Minnelijk Schuldregelingingsproces (MSNP) or Wettelijk Schuldregelingstraject (WSNP) and, if necessary, initiate a moratorium or compulsory settlement.
