Background

ReachOut is a mentoring charity working with children in disadvantaged communities to raise aspirations and help them grow in character and competence.

We improve self-confidence and develop Numeracy, Literacy and Communication Skills, whilst reinforcing our core values of Fairness, Self-Control, Good Judgement and Staying Power.

We do this through one-to-one mentoring with positive role models and team activities, to promote leadership, trust and responsibility.

ReachOut runs mentoring projects for young people in various schools in the afternoon and evening. Our young people are referred by schools for a variety of reasons, and many have complex needs that can affect their behaviour and self-esteem. Each project involves weekly mentoring sessions through the academic year. The sessions involve one-to-one academic & non-academic activities with volunteer mentors, group activities with mentors and young people, and extracurricular activities such as multi-sports, drama and arts and crafts.

Our Project Managers report to the Head of Delivery. They are responsible for line managing Project Officers, and through them, the delivery of projects in their region. They build and manage relationships with partner schools and ensure that all projects are delivered to the highest standard. Project Managers work closely with the Volunteer Team and Fundraising Team to maintain impactful mentoring sessions for our young people.

In 2021/22, ReachOut aims to expand our delivery and engage over 1000 young people through a mix of in-person (when safe to do so) and online mentoring programmes. Our long-term aim is to double our reach and be working with 2000 young people by 2024!

We are looking for innovative and passionate people that want to contribute to this growth whilst ensuring maximum impact on each young person.

At ReachOut, we are committed to equality, diversity and inclusion. We aim to be an organisation that represents the young people that we mentor. We actively encourage applications from candidates from Black and minority ethnic backgrounds as these are under-represented within our organisation.

Job Description

The Headline Programme Officer role offers the opportunity to build and manage relationships with a wide range of stakeholders. The Programme Officer will play a leading role in shaping and implementing the delivery of our new leadership programme Headline. You will have responsibility for the quality and consistency of the Headline leader’s experience whilst on the programme. The first prototype will be launching in October 2021, and is the first of its kind in the sector. The participant journey on the Headline programme includes a number of residential leadership modules, workshops, shadowing and extensive executive coaching.

There is a high autonomy culture within the team and organisation, so the role requires someone who is well organised, pro-active and can use their initiative to do what works. The team is small with ambitious targets, so the Officer will need to be flexible and think strategically, at times beyond their role, as the team often work collectively to get the best results. The Officer will need experience in project management and relationship management, implementing programmes and have a confident and inclusive communication style. The successful candidates will work across a varied range of activities so will need to adapt quickly to the demands of the programme and our participants.

At this exciting time in our evolution, we are looking for candidates to take up roles as part-time Programme Support Tutors. We have roles available in our Brighton, Coventry, Manchester North and Southampton West centre. You will work closely with our existing IntoUniversity team, acting as a tutor at after-school Academic Support sessions and supporting the team with programme preparation. 

Our ideal candidate has either paid or voluntary experience working with young people, is well-organised and efficient, a good team-player and is someone excited and enthusiastic at the prospect of helping young people reach their potential.  You will have achieved a minimum of a GCSE grade C (or equivalent) in Maths and English. You might be a retired teacher keen to use your skills to continue to support children or someone who wants rewarding work to fit in with the school holidays, but applications are welcome from anyone interested. No specialist subject knowledge is required for this role and training is provided.

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 achieve their potential regardless of their background and want to play a part in helping them succeed, then we would be delighted to hear from you.
