Recruitment Consultant - Youth Support

Are you a recruiter whos ready for something a little different? This role is similar to recruitment in many ways

sourcing opportunities, engaging with employers, matching people into roles

but instead of filling vacancies for clients, youll be helping young people with additional needs take their first step into the world of work.

This position sits within a Supported Internship programme in the High Wycombe and Aylesbury area, supporting 1624 year olds with an EHCP. The programme combines classroom learning (maths, English, and employability skills) with real work experience, and has an excellent track record of young people progressing into paid employment.

What youll be doing :

Using your engagement skills to approach and build relationships with local employers

Creating supported work experience placements and explaining the benefits of employing a young person with a neurodiverse profile

Matching young people into placements and helping them succeed day to day, breaking tasks down and coaching them in the workplace

Travel training and ensuring they can get to and from work independently

Keeping families updated on progress

Why this role is different

If youve enjoyed recruitment but would like a change, this role offers the chance to keep using your people and relationship-building skills, while making a tangible difference in young peoples lives. Youre not chasing KPIs or sales targets

instead, youre opening doors for young people who need an extra hand to get into work.

About you

We are looking for someone who has a background in recruitment, employer engagement or careers advice, and who enjoys working with people. Youll be confident speaking to employers, motivated by seeing others succeed, and keen to give back through the work you do.
