As of today in the UK, if you are under 25 and Black you are 3x as likely to be unemployed than if you are White. Or if you are under 25 and Asian you are 2x as likely to be unemployed than if you are White. This keeps us up at night. We are committed to democratising access to the world of work.

●  Work closely with Apprentice Nation participants to provide 1:1 support navigating the start of their careers, by providing bespoke advice on where to find the right resources and opportunities.

●  Build and maintain relationships with Apprentice Nation brand partners, facilitating active employee engagement across the Apprentice Nation platform.

●  Build collaborative relationships with organisations (e.g. Not Going To Uni, Creative Lives in Progress, local Career Hubs) and engage businesses in supporting young people as they begin their careers.

●  Maintain Apprentice Nation’s Safeguarding policy and practice - and take part in relevant training to support this.

●  Design and implement regular member surveys to track the impact of Apprentice Nation, including qualitative and quantitative data analysis, in line with quarterly reporting to brand partners

●  Work closely with the Marketing team to engage participants in Go Far and Mentor Session opportunities.

Diversity. Inclusion. Belonging. Respect. Our values. These are the principles we use to build our team. We have a national, multicultural following and we’re committed to reflecting that within our team and culture.

This role will be instrumental in connecting the central support function of the diocese (Church of England in Suffolk) more closely with parishes and clergy. Optimising our resources, to meet their expectations, will contribute to improved relationships with parishes and clergy and to helping them build “Flourishing congregations, making a difference”, one of the visible outcomes of the diocesan vision of Growing in God.

Da'aro Youth Project is looking for an experienced caseworker to join our small team based in Streatham Hill. We are interested in recruiting a part-time Youth Caseworker working 3 days a week (preferably Wednesday through Friday).

We are a small community-led organisation supporting young refugees from the Horn of Africa.

Da'aro Youth Project was established in 2018 by members of the Eritrean community in London. Eritreans, Ethiopians and Sudanese are some of the largest nationality groups of unaccompanied minors to arrive in the UK in recent years. Asylum-seeking children and young adults arrive here after traumatic journeys through the Sahara Desert, Libya, the Mediterranean Sea and after crossing borders in Europe, such as in Calais. Once here, young people often struggle to adapt to new lives separated from their families, and find that navigating the complex asylum and social care systems can be stressful and traumatic. We aim to promote the wellbeing of these migrant young people living in the UK, through direct support, through building bridges in the Eritrean community and through advocating for changes to unfair and discriminatory systems which undermine their wellbeing.

We want newly arrived asylum-seeking young people to feel at home and to know they have someone to turn to in a crisis.

Towards this aim we run a weekly youth club – Injera Club – and provide advice, support and advocacy through our casework service for young people in need. 

Through trauma-informed, intensive casework we identify the needs of young people, advocate for their interests within the care and asylum system, and connect young people with the services, opportunities and support they need to reach their goals. 

The Youth Caseworker role will:

Work alongside young refugees, asylum seekers and other young migrants who are at risk or in crisis to ensure that they can access their statutory rights and make progress in their personal, social and educational development so that they can achieve their full potential.
Provide holistic casework, advice and practical support to young people aged 14 to 21 years, working closely with statutory and voluntary organisations to ensure that the immediate and longer -term needs of young people are met.
To encourage the active and meaningful participation of young people in all aspects of Da’aro Youth Project’s youth service delivery.
You'll need to have relevant experience and the energy and determination required to work positively with young migrants who are at risk or in crisis along with the ability to manage a complex caseload and the desire to work as a member of a small team.

Preference will be given to those applicants who have previous experience in casework with children, young adults, and refugees and asylum-seekers – and those applicants with refugee language skills (Tigrinya or/and Amharic).

Closing date for Applications is 23.59 on Sunday 19th December 2021.

Interviews will take place during the following week or so.

To apply, please complete the attached application form and return it to us via our website (see link above).

Please indicate on your application which days you are available to work.

Neighbourhood Watch is the largest crime prevention community in the UK. Neighbourhood Watch Network (NWN) is the umbrella organisation that supports Neighbourhood Watch schemes throughout England and Wales. NWN is a registered charity (CIO) and our Board of Trustees are responsible for the governance of the organisation. The small staff support team are employed to act as the strategic voice for the movement and supports volunteers and members across England and Wales to work with their communities, the police and other agencies to build safer, connected and resilient neighbourhoods.
