Cadet Unit Leaders Wanted in LONDON
Join the Ranger Cadets – Lead a London Unit
Do you want to inspire the next generation and make a real difference in your community?
The Ranger Cadets are seeking passionate leaders to establish and guide our local cadet units across London.
We are a new, independent, non-profit uniformed youth organisation with a bold mission: to engage young people in their communities, equip them with essential life skills, and unlock their full potential. We are non-political, non-religious, and proudly inclusive – open to all, regardless of background.
Now, we are looking for Cadet Unit Leaders to lead our cadets at the grassroots level, ensuring they are seen locally in uniform as positive role models breaking down stereotypes of young people in the community.
The Role
As a Cadet Unit Leader, you will:
-
Set up, manage, and develop one of our London-based cadet units.
-
Lead and inspire cadets, creating a safe, supportive, and engaging environment.
-
Coordinate and deliver the cadet syllabus, ensuring cadets take part in fun, rewarding, and interactive programmes.
-
Help cadets earn badges for their uniform and progress through the ranks.
-
Represent Ranger Cadets locally, showcasing young people as forces for good in their communities.
-
Wear a uniform with rank insignia, reflecting your leadership role.
Why Volunteer With Us?
-
Empower young people: Help cadets grow into confident, capable leaders.
-
Shape the future: Build and lead a unit that will become a cornerstone of the Ranger Cadets.
-
Be part of something new: Join the founding team of a pioneering youth organisation.
-
Inclusive community: Work with a diverse group of young people and volunteers united by service.
Who We’re Looking For
We want someone who is:
-
Passionate about youth development and community service.
-
A strong leader and organiser, able to inspire and coordinate activities.
-
Committed to our values of inclusivity, integrity, and service.
-
Excited to help cadets earn achievements, wear their badges with pride, and advance in rank.
Your Call to Action
This is more than a volunteer role – it’s a chance to make history at the grassroots level. Step into uniform. Take up the challenge. Become a Cadet Unit Leader and help us inspire the next generation in London.
Apply today and be part of the founding team of the Ranger Cadets. Together, we will be a force for good.
