We do this by developing a youth-led supplementary school provision which nurtures and supports working class young people (aged 11 - 14) who have faced numerous challenges on their education journey but still have a passion to learn and achieve their aspirations.
Our primary focus is to design an approach that offers support, connection, hope, and aspiration — one that pushes young people to believe they can be more, while first laying strong foundations of trust. We recognise that their knowledge and ideas are central to shaping this provision. Our approach is rooted in what young people care about, creating space for meaningful conversations with young adults and adults who can act as mentors. This is not an ordinary school or educational establishment. Our board of trustees — many aged 18 to 30 — have shaped the vision, created the previous curriculum, and will remain at the heart of the process every step of the way.
Role purpose
To make this vision a reality we’re looking for a Youth Team Manager to join our team in Tulse Hill, London, on an initial 12 month basis. This is a fantastic opportunity to have a positive impact with an organisation by running creative critical thinking sessions with our young people. The main priorities will be as follows:
- Effective delivery of REKINDLE’s curriculum – Ensure that sessions are engaging, accessible, and aligned with the Snap and Four C’s framework, using strategies that foster critical thinking and independent learning.
- Building meaningful relationships with young people – Develop strong, trusting connections to support their personal and academic growth, ensuring an inclusive and supportive learning environment.
- Safeguarding and wellbeing – Maintain a safe space for all participants by adhering to safeguarding policies, identifying risks, and promoting well-being.
- Collaboration and continuous improvement – Work closely with colleagues and external partners to enhance programme impact, contributing to ongoing development and evaluation.
Key Responsibilities (summary):
-
Plan and deliver sessions that align with our curriculum and values.
-
Support individual and group learning through creative teaching strategies.
-
Promote youth voice, confidence, and critical dialogue.
-
Maintain safeguarding standards and respond to wellbeing concerns.
-
Work with local partners to expand opportunities.
-
Contribute to the programme’s continuous improvement.
Person Specification (essential):
-
Relevant qualifications or equivalent experience (including lived experience).
-
At least 2 years’ experience managing work with working-class young people or those facing social marginalisation.
-
Passion for education as a tool for social change.
-
Understanding of safeguarding practices.
-
Experience planning structured, youth-focused activities.
-
Ability to build strong relationships and think critically.
-
Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
-
Experience with evaluation and research.
-
First Aid/Safeguarding training (or willingness to obtain).
-
Mostly onsite availability, with occasional remote working.
