Reporting to the Communications and Engagement Manager, the Youth Support Worker roles form part of the support team and involves welcoming young people into the youth café, ensuring everything is running smoothly and supporting young people to engage with Area 43's support, activities and services.

Depot is an informal, educative space for young people to learn life skills and improve their employment opportunities.

As part of our youth support team at Area 43's youth café, Depot, you will facilitate an informal fun culture with a strong sense of governance by young people, and while activities and events may be enabled by youth support workers, they are primarily determined and led by youth.

You will provide opportunities for young people with or without issues in their lives, to mix with each other.

This open access encourages diversity, inclusion, and equity in its culture, challenging perceived stigma and cultivating values important to young people.

The role will include a shift-based pattern covering between 11 am -7 pm, Monday to Saturday.

Key responsibilities:

  • Providing information and support to young people accessing Depot
  • Planning, creating and running activities in conjunction with young people
  • Empowering young people to put forward their ideas for service delivery
  • Providing tailored 1:1 support for young people on supported work placements
  • Engaging young people, both face to face and virtually
  • Creating engaging content for young people on all social media platforms
  • Promoting and maintaining a safe, inclusive environment and challenging inappropriate behaviour
  • Engaging with the Therapy Dogs and taking responsibility in turn
  • Conducting Outreach with Young People in the locality
  • Previous experience in a supporting role with wideranging responsibility
  • Previous experience working with young people
  • Able to be caring, sensitive and patient while supporting people to be as independent as possible.
  • Enthusiasm to make a difference in people's lives
  • Ability to listen, understand and respond to people, always putting the person who is being supported first.
  • Ability to get on well with people and work in harmony with others, by both challenging and helping people to develop and learn from their experiences.
  • Ability to be flexible and open to new challenges, ideas, and experiences
  • Ability to demonstrate Area 43's values and behaviours
  • Hold or be willing to work towards a Level 3 Certificate in Youth Work Practice

This role includes regulated activity with children and young people and will require an enhanced DBS check and check of the Children's Barred List.

Closing Date: 2.00 pm on Friday, 12 April 2024

Interviews:
Week commencing Monday, 22 April 2024
