Ready to make a positive impact in the lives of Children and Young People, helping them build a brighter future?
We are seeking a passionate individual with a strong foundation in mental health and emotional wellbeing support. You’ll hold a BTEC Higher Diploma, Foundation Degree, or equivalent experience in a relevant field, with at least one year of post qualification experience working with children, young people and families.
We’re also looking for someone who can demonstrate:
- Knowledge of child development, behaviours and mental health challenges, with experience supporting children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) particularly welcomed.
- Familiarity with safeguarding legislation, confidentiality, consent, mental capacity and data protection guidelines.
- Confidence in delivering mental health advice and engaging diverse audiences, supported by excellent communication skills.
- Strong organisational and IT skills, with the ability to thrive in a dynamic environment.
- Access to transport for commuting between community venues, with experience working in education settings essential.
This role requires regular travel to individual schools, so the ability to drive and access to a vehicle is essential. However, we are committed to removing barriers wherever possible. If you are unable to drive due to a disability, we will explore suitable adjustments or alternative travel arrangements, such as support through Access to Work.
Proactive in safeguarding and deeply committed to promoting welfare, you embody our core values of integrity, respect, reliability and a solution focused approach. You strive to make a meaningful impact in every interaction.
If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!
