However willingness to learn, passion for the cause and transferable skills count for a lot and training will be provided if you do not have direct experience but you are creative, good at organisation, enjoy building relationships and have an eye for detail.
An average week might involve a residential or day activity with our group. It might be meeting members on a 121 to support them with their individual needs or planning the next exciting event for our members to attend.

The post holder will not be expected to provide personal care. The successful candidate may be required where appropriate to support young people with tasks such as eating their food, drinking, pushing people in wheelchairs and supporting them on activities.
Job description
We are seeking an experienced and highly motivated youth worker who has excellent planning skills, is great at communicating with different groups of people and the ability to support our members to lead.
Preferably the successful candidate will be able to demonstrate previous experience of leading on successful youth work projects, have experience of 121 and lone working, experience of managing relationships at varying levels, an understanding of disability awareness and working to budgets.
The post holder will be required to manage the day-to-day jobs of the Illumin8 project predominantly working with 18-30 year olds. This will include planning and running events, organising members to get to events including transport and adaptations needed and supporting members with 121 support. The candidate will also be responsible for supporting the rest of the team and other projects we run including Acceler8 and our Advocacy work.
We can’t emphasise enough how much we value transferable skills and passion so please do not be put off from applying if you are applying from a different sector/role.
