The heart of Client Services is to take the burden of debt from our clients, who are often the most vulnerable and needy, and provide them with the very best opportunity to get out of debt. As a Client Services Reach Intern you will join a fast-paced, dynamic team and become part of providing the First-Rate debt counselling service for which CAP is renowned.

There are four different areas within Client Services which vary from directly dealing with clients, providing insolvency advice to them and speaking on their behalf with creditors. You will be trained in a specific role and will quickly become an advanced and proficient member of the team.

If you want an opportunity to practically express your compassion, desire for justice and heart for the poor, then Client Services could be for you!
