Joining us as an Associate Link Worker/Link Worker, you will be based in the school with the children and young people you’ll be working with on our programme. Working directly with the children, their families, their teachers and our partners, you will design and facilitate a two-year Impact Programme of support and champion the children and young people along the way.

Since our launch in 2016, our Impact Programme has helped thousands of children and young people at the tipping point of need. 75% are no longer at risk in their emotional and mental wellbeing; two-thirds improved their grades, and 90% of schools renew after the first programme, noting ‘transformational or significant positive impact’ for the children and the wider school environment.

We are proud to be an employer that puts equity, diversity and inclusion at the core of all that we do, for the benefit of our employees, our partners, and the community that we work with.
