  • Champion Young People: Support them into work placements, jobs, and apprenticeships that last.
  • Make Things Happen: Organise networking events, job clubs, and employer engagement activities.

What We're Looking For

  • A proactive, people-focused approach.
  • Experience in employability or youth work is great – but passion and drive matter most!
