Job description

Spark Specialist & Skills Legend? Join the Urban Youth Squad!

Are you a pro at passing on your passion? Do you have the magic touch when it comes to teaching others how to connect with young people? Urban Youth is on the hunt for an inspiring Youth Work Trainer to help our team level up their skills and bring their "A-game" to every session!

What’s the Vibe?

At Urban Youth, we aren’t about boring meetings and dusty clipboards. We’re about action. We get young people off their devices and into the real world—creating interactive spaces where they can connect, laugh, and grow. Whether it’s mastering a new skill or discovering a hidden talent, we’re all about those "lightbulb" moments that change lives.

Why Become our Youth Work Trainer?

Being a Trainer isn't about lecturing from a slide deck—it’s about being a Master Maker. You’ll be the one who equips our squad with the tools to change lives. You’ll be:

  • The Game-Changer: Designing and delivering fun, interactive workshops that teach our team how to engage, mentor, and inspire youth.

  • The Skill-Sharper: Helping our volunteers and staff master everything from behavior management to creating the ultimate "off-screen" activity.

  • The Innovator: Bringing fresh, modern youth work techniques to our sessions so we stay ahead of the curve.

Who are we looking for?

You don't need a PhD or a formal teaching degree. We want people who are:

  • Youth Work Savvy: You know what makes young people tick and how to handle a busy, high-energy environment.

  • Vibrant: You can command a room with your energy and turn a training session into an experience people actually want to be at.

  • Real: You give practical, down-to-earth advice that works in the real world, not just in a textbook.

  • Bold: You love experimenting with new ways of learning—think roleplay, games, and hands-on challenges!

We don't just teach life skills; we create the adventures where those skills are born!!!

The Perks:

  • Massive Impact: By training our team, you’re indirectly impacting every single young person who walks through our doors.

  • Skill Growth: Refine your coaching and presentation skills in a space that rewards creativity and fun.

  • Community: Join a fun, supportive team that believes in the power of "learning by doing."

Ready to Inspire?

If you’re ready to help us turn "scrolling" into "doing" and empower our team to be the best youth workers they can be, we want to chat! No intimidating 10-page application forms here—just a passion for sharing your skills and a bit of your time.

 

Let’s build something epic together.
