We are looking for two skilful and relational youth workers to work with young people in the BD2/10 communities. We are looking for workers capable of leading sessions/leading activities within sessions, and developing small programmes within the wider picture of the centre’s work. These roles will spend the majority of the available time with young people.

You will be confident in working in multiple settings with young people of all ages, many of whom may be vulnerable, display challenging behaviour or have other unmet needs. Settings will include detached work, open/drop-in sessions and targeted group work. Experience of work within or in partnership with schools would be beneficial. As part of the team with the lead Youth Worker, you will need to be a highly motivated and flexible worker.

The youth work at the Springfield Centre is being developed with support from emerge - a youth work charity in South Bradford.
