Job description
EOTAS Mentor

Location: Guildford (GU8)


Hours: 16 hours per week (Flexibility with days)


Contract: 48 weeks per year


Pay: Competitive, dependent on experience


Opportunity: Temporary to permanent for the right candidate

About the Role

We're looking for a creative, flexible and relationship-focused EOTAS Mentor to support a 14-year-old autistic young person accessing an Education Otherwise Than At School (EOTAS) package through their EHCP.

This is not a traditional teaching or tutoring role. Learning is centred around the young person's interests, life skills, community experiences and real-world activities. The successful mentor will build a trusting relationship while supporting learning in ways that feel meaningful, engaging and accessible.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone seeking a long-term role. For the right person, the manager of the package is keen to offer a permanent position after an initial 12-week period, providing stability and continuity for both the young person and mentor.

What We're Looking For

The ideal candidate will:

  • Have a good understanding of autism and neuroaffirming practice
  • Understand how physical and mental health needs can impact wellbeing, engagement and day-to-day life
  • Be patient, flexible and relationship-focused
  • Have a positive outlook and a good sense of humour
  • Be creative and confident thinking outside the box
  • Understand trauma-informed approaches
  • Enjoy supporting learning through interests, experiences and everyday activities
  • Feel comfortable adapting plans to meet changing needs
  • Be passionate about building genuine, trusting relationships with young people

Essential Requirements

  • Full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle
  • Enhanced DBS (or willingness to obtain one)
  • Non-smoker
  • Comfortable around pets, particularly cats
  • Able to work collaboratively with family members and professionals
  • Willing to complete a probationary period

Desirable Experience

Experience or knowledge of:

  • Autism, ADHD and PDA
  • Physical and/or mental health conditions and their impact on daily life
  • EOTAS or alternative provision
  • Mentoring or pastoral support
  • Community-based learning
  • Developing life skills
  • Outdoor learning and nature-based activities
  • Cooking and practical life skills

The Right Approach

This young person responds best to adults who:

  • Communicate clearly, honestly and respectfully
  • Allow additional processing time
  • Work collaboratively rather than using a directive approach
  • Respect boundaries, autonomy and choice
  • Explain the reasons behind expectations
  • Prioritise trust, connection and positive relationships

This role would not suit someone with an authoritarian or compliance-based approach.

The Right Person

We're looking for someone who can become a trusted mentor, learning companion and positive role model, supporting a young person to build confidence, independence and life skills through a personalised, relationship-based approach.

If you're passionate about helping young people learn in ways that work for them and are looking for a rewarding role with the potential to become permanent, we'd love to hear from you.
