Are you passionate about supporting vulnerable young people to overcome adversity and achieve their potential? Do you have the ability to build trusted relationships with young people facing complex challenges and help them make positive changes in their lives?

If so, St Giles Trust is looking for a Keyworker to join the multi-agency Power2 Team in Wolverhampton, delivering intensive mentoring and support to children and young people aged 10–25 who have experienced trauma, exploitation, instability, or other significant vulnerabilities.

About St Giles Trust 
An ambitious, well-established charity that helps people facing adversity to find jobs, homes and the right support they need.  Central to our ethos is our belief that people with first-hand experience of successfully overcoming issues such as an offending background, homelessness, addictions and gang involvement, hold the key to positive change in others.  

About the Service
The Power2 Team is a multi-agency, multidisciplinary service that brings together specialist professionals to support children and young people who are at risk of exploitation, serious youth violence, criminal involvement and other harmful outcomes.

Using trauma-informed, strengths-based and relational approaches, the team works closely with young people, families, communities and partner agencies to improve wellbeing, increase resilience and create safer futures.

About this key role
You will provide intensive one-to-one mentoring and group-based interventions to vulnerable and at-risk young people, helping them to identify and achieve positive goals while reducing the risks they face.

Working as part of a collaborative multi-agency team, you will build trusting relationships with young people and their families, coordinate support, and ensure that the voice of the child remains central to all interventions.

You will:

• Deliver trauma-informed mentoring, group work and targeted interventions that support young people to build resilience, confidence and positive aspirations
• Develop and deliver individual support plans using strengths-based and restorative approaches
• Work closely with families and partner agencies to coordinate effective support
• Identify and respond to safeguarding concerns and risks relating to exploitation, serious youth violence and criminal activity
• Support young people to engage with education, training, employment and community opportunities
• Maintain accurate records and contribute to monitoring and evaluation activities
• Promote the voice, choice and participation of young people in decisions affecting their lives

What we are looking for

• Personal lived experiences similar to those of the target client group
• Experience of engaging positively with young people and families
• Experience delivering one-to-one support, mentoring or advocacy
• Experience facilitating group work and structured interventions

• Understanding of trauma-informed practice and safeguarding
• Ability to assess risk and implement appropriate interventions
• Strong communication, relationship-building and organisational skills
• Experience working with partner agencies and multi-disciplinary teams
• Ability to maintain accurate records and work towards targets

As an organisation that works with children and adults at risk we are committed to safeguarding, protecting and promoting the safety of our clients. An Enhanced DBS Check with children’s barred list is required for this Role-But there is not an expectation it will be ‘clean’- St Giles employs many people with convictions.

We actively encourage people with personal experience of the criminal justice system or lived experience of the issues facing this client group to apply for this role.

In return, you can expect a competitive salary, generous leave allowance, staff pension, flexible working, a mentoring programme, an advice and counselling service, clinical therapist sessions, life insurance (4 x annual salary), duvet days, season ticket loan, employee perks programme, eye care voucher and much more.

We are an equity and inclusion confident employer.

We value the empowering and informative impact that all lived experiences and diversity of thought can offer the organisation.

Breaking the Cycle is currently delivered in partnership with HSBC UK.

Groundwork South is seeking a motivated and experienced Senior Project Officer to lead on the delivery of our Climate Action Fund project over the next five years.

Senior Project Officer (Climate Action Fund Training and Development Lead)
Reference: CAF0626
Contract: Fixed term until June 2031
Hours: Full-Time, 37.5 hours each week
Salary: £28,000 - £32,000 per annum
Location: Home-based (with travel across England) – There is a focus on South West England during the pilot phase

About Us

Groundwork South works with communities across the south of England to transform their lives and the places where they live. We have been at the forefront of social and environmental regeneration for over 25 years, and today we have a simple mission: to create better places, improve people’s prospects, and promote greener living and working.

We are passionate about creating a future where every neighbourhood is vibrant and green, every community is strong and able to shape its own destiny, and no-one is held back by their background or circumstances. This vision drives the work that we do. Each year we deliver over 100 innovative projects, tackling the biggest issues facing our communities and creating real and lasting, positive change.

About the Project

Communities Prepared works with volunteers and communities across England to help them build the skills, confidence and knowledge needed to prepare for, respond to and recover from emergencies. This includes supporting communities to plan for climate-related risks such as flooding, storms, heatwaves, and severe weather.

Despite the successes we have had through our programme to date, we are not currently reaching diverse enough audiences and too often there are people missing from the resilience sector. This needs to change. To address this we are now embarking on an exciting new UK-wide partnership programme funded through the National Lottery Community Fund’s Climate Action Fund over the next five years.

The programme responds to growing evidence that climate-related emergencies, including extreme heat, flooding, fire, cold and severe weather, disproportionately impact marginalised communities, while those same communities are often excluded from resilience planning and decision-making.

The programme brings together Equally Ours, Communities Prepared (part of Groundwork South), and the VCS Emergencies Partnership (VCSEP, part of the British Red Cross) to strengthen climate resilience by ensuring that communities experiencing discrimination and disadvantage are at the heart of climate preparedness, response, recovery and policy-making.

Through a rights-based and co-produced approach, the programme seeks to shift climate resilience policy and practice away from models that frame communities as “vulnerable”, and towards approaches grounded in agency, participation, equality and shared responsibility.

Key Responsibilities

As Senior Project Officer, you will:

• Work with the project team to map stakeholders and co-develop a structured engagement plan to recruit and work with marginalised communities.
• Build a collaborative and trusting relationship with the partner organisations and other stakeholders for this project, ensuring this work meets their expectations and complements areas of the work programme led by others.
• Work with project participants and partners to co-design Communities Prepared material and delivery methods that are more accessible and relevant to diverse audiences.
• Lead on the delivery of resilience training and workshop sessions with diverse audiences, both in-person and online.
• Work with project participants and partners to co-design a train the trainer model that will enable diverse audiences to deliver resilience training within their own communities, amplifying reach and impact.
• Work with the core Communities Prepared team to adapt our offer with the long-term goal of the Programme reaching more diverse audiences, especially those seldom heard in this sector.

The role involves regular travel across the UK, with a focus on South West England during the project’s pilot phase.

We are looking for someone with:

• Experience in community engagement or community development.
• Experience delivering training or workshops.
• Strong organisational and project management skills.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, confident to engage people from a range of different backgrounds.
• Experience working with multiple stakeholders or partners.
• Confidence working independently in a remote role.
• An interest in climate change, community resilience and wider community development.
• A willingness to travel across the country.

Closing date for applications: 11.59pm, 30th June 2026
Interview date: 15th July over MS Teams
Interview panel: Representatives from Groundwork South, Equally Ours and VCSEP (tbc)
