Youth Employability Coach (19–25) | 12‑Week Impact Program

Leeds City College are recruiting for a King's Trust Teacher to join our team. As a Kings Trust Team Leader, you will play a pivotal role in empowering young people aged 19-25 to develop essential skills, build confidence, and achieve their goals through a dynamic 12-week programme.

Your day will typically begin at 9:00 AM, preparing for engaging and interactive sessions that commence at 9:30 AM and conclude at 3:00 PM. These sessions will cater to the diverse needs of your learners and encompass a range of activities, including: facilitating icebreakers and team-building exercises, delivering workshops on employability and personal development, leading discussions on social issues and community engagement, and supporting learners in planning and reflecting on impactful community projects.

Your role extends beyond the classroom, encompassing a diverse range of responsibilities such as attending a 4-day residential experience, coordinating and supporting learners during their community project, and providing guidance and mentorship during their work placement block. This dynamic and rewarding role requires flexibility, creativity, a genuine passion for youth development, and a strong commitment to making a positive difference in the lives of young people.

The type of learner's on programme will have:

• Low self-esteem and lack of confidence
• Limited work experience and employability skills
• Varying levels of literacy, language, and numeracy
• Additional support needs and challenging backgrounds

This is a fantastic opportunity to join the Adult, Community & ESOL (ACE) department based at College House, who were graded Outstanding by Ofsted in February 2025. In 2025/26 there were over 6000 students with a team of 200+, bringing education and life-changing experiences to our learners.
