Gateway Assessors
Gateway assessors help clients get the right help in the fastest time possible.
They assess people's needs, either face-to-face or over the phone and identify the most appropriate course of action. That might be self-help information, referral to a specialist organisation or an appointment with Citizens Advice adviser.
As a gateway assessor you would:
  • Greet clients and explain the gateway assessment process
  • Explore the clients problem(s) and situation
  • Assess the risk/urgency of the clients issue and their ability to deal with the problem themselves
  • Identify the next steps to be taken
  • Summarise the content of the interview for the client and explain what happens next
  • Ensure clients know they can return if necessary
  • Update the Citizens Advice client database
Specific qualifications or experience are not required to train for the role. You need to:
  • Be good at listening and enjoy helping people
  • Flexibility and willingness to work as part of a team
  • Willingness to learn and develop skills in main enquiry areas
  • Have basic computing skills
  • Be open minded and non-judgmental
