Graduate Careers Coach

Location: Tokyngton

We’re looking for a Youth Outreach Specialist to support young people aged 18–25 who are currently out of work due to health-related barriers. You’ll work with a small caseload, building trust, motivation, and confidence, helping young people take their first steps toward employment, education, or further support.

This is a community-based role (so no office base), ideal for someone who enjoys outreach, relationship-building, and making a tangible difference.  We have roles in Ealing and Brent.

The charity are open to recent graduates who have some experience in either youth work, employability, or work supporting people to achieve goals.  This could be paid or voluntary.

Key responsibilities
 
Manage a caseload of up to 25 young adults
Build trusted one-to-one relationships and support motivation and confidence
Carry out outreach and engagement activities in the local community
Work with partners and services to create progression opportunities
Support young people to explore next steps and access appropriate services
About you
 
Experience supporting young people or adults with barriers to work or education (or similar challenges)
Confident building relationships with hard-to-reach individuals
Comfortable working independently in the community
Enjoy working to targets to make a difference
You’ll play a key role in helping young people move forward with their lives, in a role that offers variety, autonomy, and real social impact.

This is a 12 month contract.  You must live within an hours travel of either Ealing or Brent via public transport (parking is not paid so driving would not be practical)
