Sexual Health & HIV Prevention Outreach Worker

Spectra is looking for a Sexual Health Outreach Worker to deliver sexual health and wellbeing outreach and support for targeted groups in commissioned London boroughs (Brent, Ealing, Harrow, Hillingdon, Kingston, Merton, Richmond, Sutton, Wandsworth, Croydon), focusing on those at increased risk of poor sexual health.

This role is intended to sit across two distinct teams: Young People's Sexual Health (2 days per week) and HIV Prevention (3 days per week). 

Working with the young people's team, the postholder will conduct outreach, education, and training in several settings depending on the needs of different young people. These could be educational settings, youth settings, community events, sports settings, clubs and pubs. You will target vulnerable young people, such as looked-after children (LAC), those who are not in education, employment, or training (NEET), those who come from areas of high deprivation and high need, and those with other increased risk factors, as well as young people aged 13-15 who are not yet able to access online services.   

The postholder will deliver targeted and general HIV prevention programming, providing knowledge and skills, and empowering individuals to access the support that they need. This work is with adults (18+). The postholder will liaise with local service providers supporting those groups in commissioned London boroughs, supported by the HIV Prevention Coordinator.
