Job Description:

Many young people today feel forgotten by the traditional education system. As a Youth Engagement Mentor, you aren't just a tutor; you are a lifeline. You will work one-on-one with students who are persistently absent or excluded from school, including those with SEND, SEMH challenges, or complex barriers to learning. Your mission is to build a 're-engagement bridge,' guiding students from total isolation back into a stable learning environment, college, or vocational pathway.

Job Responsibility:

  • Building a re-engagement bridge, guiding students from total isolation back into a stable learning environment, college, or vocational pathway
  • Relationship Building & Wellbeing: Meet the young person where they are to build trust, deliver 1:1 sessions focused on confidence, emotional regulation, and self-esteem
  • Educational & Vocational Re-ignition: Deliver low-pressure, interest-based activities to reignite the habit of learning, physically accompany students to interviews or placements
  • Collaboration & Advocacy: Act as the voice of the child in multi-agency meetings with Social Care and CAMHS, support parents in creating a home environment that encourages attendance and growth

Requirements:

  • Unshakeable patience and a non-judgmental approach
  • Working with at-risk youth or SEND
  • Strong de-escalation and boundary-setting

Nice to have:

  • A creative, out-of-the-box thinker
  • Specific experience with ADHD, Autism, or ODD
  • Knowledge of local colleges and the job market
