Make a Genuine Difference in Young People's Lives

We are currently recruiting for a Behaviour Mentor to support children and young people within SEN, SEMH, and alternative provision settings across Bristol.

This is a rewarding opportunity for individuals who are passionate about supporting young people who may struggle with emotional regulation, behaviour, engagement in education, or additional learning needs.

Unlike short-term agency cover, our placements focus on consistency and relationship-building, giving staff the opportunity to make a meaningful long-term impact within schools and specialist settings.

You will help students

  • Build confidence and resilience

  • Access education in a safe and supportive environment

You may support students on a 1:1 basis or within small groups depending on the setting.

Ideal Experience

We welcome applicants from backgrounds including

  • Youth work
  • Support work
  • Residential care
  • Sports coaching
  • SEN support
  • Mental health support
  • Behaviour mentoring
  • Teaching assistant experience

Experience working with children or vulnerable young people is highly desirable.

What We're Looking For

  • Calm, resilient, and empathetic individuals
  • Strong communication and relationship-building skills
  • Passion for supporting young people with additional needs
  • Ability to remain positive in challenging situations
  • Full driving licence is beneficial but not essential

Why Work With Us?

  • Long-term placements with consistency
  • Supportive, relationship-focused approach
  • Opportunities across SEN, SEMH & PRU settings
  • Competitive daily rates
  • Ongoing support from a local team
  • Opportunities for permanent placements
