Job description

Want to play your part in transforming society?

You’re in the right place.

The Spear Assistant Coach will work as part of the River Church staff team, alongside the Centre Manager to deliver the Spear Programme, equipping and empowering 16-24 year olds to overcome barriers to employment and turn their lives around by moving into sustainable work or further education.

 

The important stuff 

Salary: up tp £25,000 pro-rata

Hours: Part-Time, 3 days; 9.30am – 5.30pm with occasional evening working required (for events such as termly Spear Celebration evenings)

Location: River Church Ipswich – we are an office-based organisation

Closing date: We are interviewing on a rolling basis and might close the application early if we find the right candidate

Application pack: Download our application pack for more information

We welcome applications from those who are already part of a local church.

Key Responsibilities 

Spear Programme

  • Lead group sessions of up to 10 young people, using coaching skills to transform their mindsets, and to maximise their potential in stepping into the world of work.
  • Prepare and deliver coaching sessions on a weekly basis and find creative ways of developing ongoing relationships with Spear trainees. This includes running application workshops with past trainees as well as maintaining records and reporting on statistics. 

Relationship Management

  • Build and manage relationships with a variety of stakeholders, including referrers, local businesses, and other organisations.
  • You will support with job fairs, mock interview days and welcoming external visitors to the centre.

Church Community

  • The Assistant Coach is directly employed by River Church, though it is not a requirement of the role for the successful candidate to join River Church as their worshipping community if they are already part of another local church
  • Help to raise the profile of the Spear programme within River Church and build a network of supporters and volunteers from the congregation.

This role will suit you if you are:

  • An active Christian, able to personally represent the values and beliefs of Resurgo and River Church, Ipswich.
  • Passion for social justice and for working as part of the church to transform communities, especially supporting young people in employment or education.
  • Confident communication and interpersonal skills, both over telephone and face to face; particularly a confidence in group facilitation.
  • A commitment to grow and learn as a Christian leader, and a desire to learn and understand coaching techniques.
  • An ambitious and self-motivated individual with the ability to prioritise workload, exercise initiative and work well under pressure.
  • High emotional intelligence, a sense of humour and fun!

A couple of things to note:

  • This role requires occasional evening work, for our termly Spear Celebrations (where we celebrate our trainees as they complete the initial six weeks of the programme).
  • In the event of a job offer, a DBS check will be requested.
