About CAP
CAP is a Not-For-Profit Organisation working across Aotearoa to support individuals and families who are living in unmanageable debt and poverty.
Every month, CAP receives hundreds of phone calls from New Zealanders across Aotearoa who are grappling with unmanageable debt. Being in unmanageable debt means that their debts consume more than they have to give; individuals and families have no other choice but to sacrifice their everyday living essentials to pay their debts.
CAP’s professional Debt Help Service enables our clients to work towards a brighter future; clients are supported to be able to repay their debts using their own income only, in accordance to their unique budget created just for them. As with all of CAP’s services, our Debt Help Service is also delivered in partnership with our local churches across Aotearoa, enabling our clients to receive holistic care as they journey towards becoming debt free.
About this Role
As part of the New Clients Team, the purpose of this role is to ensure that all our new clients who are engaged with the CAP ‘Debt Help’ service are set up for success in their journey out of debt. This role requires a mix of excellent big picture thinking and interpersonal skills. It is an extremely unique and rewarding role that is vital to the work of CAP.
