About the Role
We’re looking for people who can bring energy, stability, and positivity to young people who may have experienced trauma, disrupted education, or barriers to learning.

Resilient, patient and emotionally intelligent
Able to build trust with young people
Confident managing challenging behaviour using trauma-informed approaches
Active, creative and adaptable
Motivated by seeing young people grow and succeed

A rewarding role where you genuinely make a difference every day
