Pay: £89 to £110 per day
Start: Immediate
Contract: Full-time

This role is ideal for someone who sees potential where others see challenge.

You’ll work with young people who need guidance, structure and adults who won’t give up on them. You’ll help them develop coping strategies, rebuild confidence and take steps back into learning.

Your day might include:
• 1:1 mentoring, check-ins and emotional coaching
• Supporting pupils through conflict and crisis moments
• Delivering short, engaging sessions tailored to their interests
• Working with therapeutic staff to support wellbeing
• Helping pupils take ownership of their progress

You’ll be a great match if you:
• Have youth work, coaching, SEMH or outreach experience
• Don’t get thrown off by challenging behaviour
• Can stay calm, firm and kind at the same time
• Understand the importance of safety, boundaries and dignity

This is powerful work, and the right person makes all the difference.
