  • Encouraging independence and decision-making
  • Accompanying young people to activities and appointments
  • Supporting with job applications, CV writing, and preparing for employment
  • Adapting your support depending on individual needs – some young people require minimal input, while others need more consistent guidance

  • Ability to build positive, trusting relationships with young people
  • Reliable, committed, and able to work the shift pattern outlined
  • Someone looking for a long-term, permanent opportunity
