Full-Time | Short & Long-Term Opportunities

Why this role?

If you've worked in youth clubs, outreach, or community mentoring, you already know something no classroom can teach - relationships come before everything else. London's AP settings need Youth Workers who bring that empowerment-focused approach to young people aged roughly 11 to 25 who aren't engaging with formal schooling.

A typical week could include

  • Relationship-based mentoring and outreach support
  • Re-engagement work with young people who've disengaged from education or training
  • Emotional wellbeing support and positive behaviour guidance
  • Collaborating with schools, social care, youth justice, and early help services

What you'll need

  • Relevant youth work or SEMH experience
  • Enhanced DBS with children's barred list
  • Level 2 Safeguarding certificate
  • Two phone-verified professional references
  • Right to work in the UK

Even better if you have

  • Community-based or outreach youth work
  • AP settings experience
  • Violence reduction or youth justice background
  • JNC qualification or equivalent
