Portsmouth, United Kingdom Unloc Full time

Are you passionate about working with young people and have excellent project management skills? 

Join an exciting, fast-paced and growing social enterprise as a Programme Facilitator focussed on delivering entrepreneurship, and wider careers and employability programmes for young people.

We believe every young person can be a changemaker. By developing young people’s skills and confidence, we empower them to shape their lives and the world around them.

Our programme facilitators are our front line team, delivering innovative and exciting programmes with young people across our network of schools, colleges, businesses and community organisations. We pride ourselves on being innovative, embracing new technology and ensuring that we have young people at the heart of everything we do.

 

What we offer

  • A fun, driven and passionate team.

  • A fixed term post with a view to extending the contract.

  • Technology including a MacBook, iPhone and relevant accessories to make your working life easier.

  • Growth: we invest in individuals and are an ambitious organisation.

  • The opportunity to work with amazing young people.

  • A flexible approach to working life and 28 days holiday plus a week at Christmas, your birthday (if it falls on a working day) and all bank holidays (not already falling within the Christmas break); a total of 39 days holiday.

  • Access to PerkBox, an external employee benefits & rewards scheme.

  • A generous workplace pension scheme whereby the employer contributes 3% of total employee earnings, rather than the legal-minimum of 3% of employee earnings above the threshold.

  • A comprehensive mental health support scheme for you and your immediate family through Health Assured including the Wisdom app.

  • A full year of team-building and CPD opportunities.

All appointments are subject to pre-employment checks returning satisfactory results including an Enhanced DBS Check, social media checks and Right to Work checks. We carry out these checks as an organisation that undertakes ‘regulated activity’ as defined by the Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups (SVG) Act 2006. Please note that such checks will include both spent and unspent convictions. Any candidate with convictions relating to offences against children or other vulnerable people will be deemed as unsuitable to work at Unloc and any job offer will be made on this basis.
