By organising a mixed weekly programme, this role will support the learning and development of young people into the next generation of health citizens. Youth Leaders also help young people develop their confidence, teamwork skills, self-discipline, and generally encourage them to strive to be the best they can be, as well as supervise and support other adult volunteers in their team.
You’ll get a huge sense of satisfaction and pride delivering an essential service. It’s great for you, great for your community and great for our nation, and it requires only a small commitment of your time.
We are recruiting for the following locations; Grays, Castlepoint, Leigh, Rochford, Basildon, Maldon, Chelmsford, Harlow, Saffron Walden, Braintree, Manningtree, Colchester and Clacton.
We do not have a fixed closing date, but we may pause recruitment if we become oversubscribed - so if you want to pursue this, please do not delay! If you are not already a St John Ambulance volunteer, after getting some brief details we will first invite you to an interview with our Welcome Team. When pursuing this role, we will check you meet the minimum criteria and then invite you to a Youth Team interview, after which we'll be able to tell you if you've been accepted for this role.
