Turnaround Youth Worker

1 week ago

Swindon, United Kingdom Swindon Borough Council Full time

At Swindon Borough Council, we want our town to be the best it can be. Our ambitious vision is supported by realistic transformation programmes, with the people of Swindon at their heart. Because that’s who we’re doing it for - the communities and businesses that make our town great. As part of the Council, you’ll support a friendly local authority making decisions with real impact. It’s all for better public services. Better processes. And a better quality of life, for everyone. Join us, and Swindon will be better with you.

Turnaround is part of the government’s investment in the youth justice system, funding YOTs to intervene early, aiming to prevent up to 17,000 children from entering the justice system.

Turnaround is a boost to funding over three years for YOTs to engage in early intervention with children on the cusp of the justice system.

Turnaround funding intends to positively impact local areas, aiming for:

- Lower levels of criminal activity
- More children engaged in positive activities
- Families receiving more support
- Improved outcomes for children and their families

**Your next role**

We are looking for a motivated and experienced practitioner to engage with children who meet the following criteria:

- Those receiving a first-time youth caution
- Those discharged by a court
- Those acquitted at court
- Those fined by a court

The post will work with children to divert them from the criminal justice system and is a 2-year fixed term contact.
- You must be fluent in the English language (as a requirement of Part 7 of the Immigration Act “for the effective performance of a customer-facing role”)._

**Your next package**

Please see our Rewards and Benefits offer for more details.

As an employee, you will receive a diverse and exciting environment in which to work, encouraging creativity and innovation whilst recognising the need to support ongoing personal development and a flexible work life balance.

For Swindon to thrive in the future, we need to lay the foundations now. It’s why our regeneration and transformation programmes are already underway. So, you’ll be joining us at an exciting time on our journey. We’ll look to you to share your knowledge, influence decisions and drive real, positive change. With your contributions, we’ll achieve our vision of a prosperous, re-vitalised Swindon by 2030 together. And you’ll be proud to say it was made better with you.

**Your next steps**

Potential applicants are sometimes put off if they don’t meet 100% of the requirements. We think individual experience, skills and passion make all the difference, so if you meet the majority of the criteria, we’d love to hear from you.
