Actively Interviewing

We’re an award-winning charity that runs local learning centres in the heart of communities where the young people we support live. Our centres provide an innovative education programme which includes practical learning support and motivational and confidence-building activities for children and young people aged 7-18. Our aim is to inspire students from the least advantaged neighbourhoods to broaden their horizons and achieve their full potential.
As the UK’s leading university access organisation, our staff team is helping thousands of young people each year. From Spring 2024 we will have forty three centres and extension projects across England and Scotland, with ambitious plans to scale-up our provision further over the coming years.
We are looking for individuals who will thrive in a fast-paced, rewarding role helping to change the lives of young people by taking up a permanent position as a part-time Programme Support Tutor in our IntoUniversity centre in Coventry. You will work closely with our existing team, supporting the delivery and organisation of the IntoUniversity programme in the centre.
As a charity with social mobility as its core objective, IntoUniversity is wholly committed to equality of opportunity. We work with children and young people from a diverse range of backgrounds, and we believe that our staff team should be similarly diverse and representative.
The more inclusive we are, the better our work will be, and we recognise that we have much more to do in this regard. We are committed to building a culture where students, staff and volunteers are valued for the unique people they are. We therefore encourage applications from candidates from as wide a range as possible of ethnic, cultural and social backgrounds. In particular, we actively and warmly welcome applications from Black, Asian and minority ethnic candidates, male candidates and candidates with a disability as they are currently under-represented within IntoUniversity. If you believe that all young people deserve the chance to develop their talents regardless of their background and want to play a part in helping them succeed, then we would be delighted to hear from you.

About Shelter
Home is a human right. It’s our foundation and where we thrive. Yet everyday millions of people are being devastated by the housing emergency. We exist to defend the right to a safe home. Because home is everything. We need ambitious, passionate people to join us. This is your chance to play a part in the fundamental change we are striving to achieve.
Our enemy is the social injustice at the core of the escalating housing emergency. To win this fight, we must be representative of the people we are here to help and those who support our movement. In all our people decisions, we take pride in being inclusive, equitable and transparent. We are committed to combating racism both within and outside Shelter. We welcome you on our journey to becoming truly anti-racist.
About the team
A key element of our fundraising is a network of community charity shops across Great Britain, from small boutiques to large furniture shops. Our online offering has seen rapid growth over the past two years too, with significant turnover during the Christmas peak, success in the launch and promotion of new goods, and the launch of a second-hand online shop. We also envisage rapid further expansion in the coming months.
About the role
As an Apprentice in our Upcycling Workshop, you’ll play an important part in helping us to delivering our strategy that’s designed to grow our sales of second-hand goods, increase our community impact and raise income to tackle the housing emergency.
You will be instrumental in supporting the Workshop Manager and local area shops to maximise the workshop’s financial and community contribution to support our work, via the effective management of volunteers, stock and premises. A great opportunity to deliver efficient and safe workshop guidance and instruction, along the way, you’ll be able to learn and develop new skills whilst increasing the community impact the shop has on upskilling local people.
About you
To succeed, you’ll need some experience of general DIY, creating bespoke and shabby chic items and upcycling, plus knowledge of safe working practices. An understanding of charity retail and the second-hand goods market would be useful too. Well-organised and great at communicating what’s required to run a workshop efficiently, you’re as comfortable delegating work when required as you are managing and motivating others.
- If you don’t have a Level 2 English or Maths qualification, you will need to work towards achieving a Level 1 English and Maths qualifications during your apprenticeship and before taking the final assessment.
- If you have a Level 1 English and Maths qualification, you will need to work towards achieving a Level 2 English or Maths qualification.
- If you already have a Level 2 English or Math qualification, you won’t be required to study English or Maths during the apprenticeship.
Benefits
We offer a wide range of benefits, including 30 days of annual leave, enhanced family friendly policies, pension and interest free travel loans. Our employees also have access to a tenancy deposit loan, payroll giving, cycle to work scheme and an employee assistance programme.
Shelter helps millions of people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness through our advice, support and legal services. And we campaign to make sure that, one day, no one will have to turn to us for help. We’re here so no one has to fight bad housing or homelessness on their own.
