Youth Worker

3 months ago

London, Greater London, United Kingdom RECLAIM Project Full time
Job description

In summary, you are:

  • Excited about the potential of a new generation of young workingclass leaders.
  • Eager to work for an organisation that isn't afraid to take risks and places young people front and centre in its work.
  • Passionate about building a country where workingclass people are heard, celebrated for our strength and diversity and aren't held back by our backgrounds.

About us:


RECLAIM is a bold charity that is committed to building a fair and just world for and with all working-class young people.

We build knowledge, power, community and solidarity to campaign on the issues that affect them the most.

We do this in three ways:

Community - Creating spaces that grow a sense of belonging and solidarity.

Campaigns - Challenging institutions, systems and structures.

Consultancy - Supporting organisations to become class-inclusive.

Our changemaking work includes:

  • We supported young people to successfully campaign for free bus travel for all 1618 year olds across Greater Manchester. A policy which now benefits 40,000 young people, making 250,000 free journeys per week and saving them and their families an average of over £500 per young person per year.
  • We helped young people highlight and challenge the increasing use of violent and dehumanising language in politics. The campaign gained widespread media coverage and resulted in new commitments from the Speaker, Prime Minister and Leader of the Opposition.
  • Young people we support were at the forefront of highlighting the impact of COVID19 on workingclass communities and demanding better recognition of the essential workers keeping the country going during lockdown.


We are seeking a Youth Worker who can work alongside our Campaign Programmes Team with young people in Greater Manchester.

This will involve project based outreach youth work, designing and delivering sessions and activities, holding 1-1s with young people and participation in other elements of RECLAIM work.

The post holder will be required to deliver regular sessions across different locations in Greater Manchester in the evenings and, at times, the weekend.


Job description:

  • Supporting the Campaigns Programmes Manager by feeding into the development, delivery and implementation of different projects, programmes and campaigns.
  • Using existing and bespoke evaluation tools and methods to judge the success of the programme and working to improve RECLAIM's work with young people.
  • Ensuring our work is in compliance with all relevant health and safety laws and RECLAIM's policies on safeguarding.
  • Developing and delivering innovative onetoone, small group and large group work with young people to promote their development according to RECLAIM's mission, including sourcing materials and facilitators, as well as coordinating/supporting volunteers and mentors where appropriate.
  • Developing close links with appropriate individuals, organisations, and statutory bodies in the communities in which RECLAIM works to create a conducive environment for RECLAIM's work with young people.

Person specification:

We are looking for someone who:

Essential
Has a strong belief in the potential of working-class young people to be leaders of change.

Enjoys being flexible within their job role, working on projects, and leading sessions in schools and communities.

Has an understanding of the social, cultural and economical barriers working class young people face.


Has the ability to use conversation, activity and environments to work with young people to develop critical thinking, reflection, learning, action and change.

Has experience of outreach youth work, working within schools, individual and group work.

Experience of monitoring and evaluating effectively to demonstrate impact.

Experience of safeguarding young people.

Is able to work on your own initiative and as part of a team and be able to work flexibly to meet the needs of the young people and RECLAIM

Has great organisational skills when working both independently and as part of a team.

Desirable
Has a strong knowledge, appreciation and practical experience of 'informal education', which may be supported by a professional qualification.

Has experience of working with young people in a pastoral care and development role.

Not familiar with the term working class?
No problem, lots of people aren't.

It means different things to different people but for us at RECLAIM being working-class is characterised by a few key factors:

  • You're on, or grew up on, a low income with limited access to wealth.
  • You don't have many family connections to people with well paid, professional or powerful jobs.
  • You find it harder to 'fit in' in middleclass spaces, interests and conversations.
  • You're proud of your background and want people to see it as a strength, not a weakness
While working-class people have many of these things in common, we're a diverse bunch t
