The Prince’s Trust is the UK’s leading youth charity offering 14-30-year olds opportunities to develop confidence, learn new skills, get into work and start businesses. It aims to help young people who would not otherwise have the opportunity to succeed - particularly focusing on those who are unemployed, educational underachievers, within or leaving the criminal justice system or leaving care.

The Prince’s Trust Team Programme is a 12-week personal development course of up to 15 young people aged between 16 and 25 years old who take part in a challenging and action-packed 12-week programme. The young people are from a variety of backgrounds and experiences, including employees, paid for by their employers. This team ‘mix’ is a unique ingredient which contributes to the development of all Team members. The Team develops confidence, motivation and skills and offers young people the opportunity to gain qualifications. The aim is to help young people move into employment, education or training.

As a cross between Teaching Assistant and supportive youth work, delivering the 12-week Prince's Trust Team programme will put you on the front line of helping vulnerable, complex and challenging young people get into work and/or further education/apprenticeships.

You will support the delivery of 3 (x 12 week) programmes a year. On this 12 week intensive programme, you will work with a cohort of approximately 15 unemployed young people aged 16-25, taking them on a journey through ice breakers/team building, a 4 day (3 night) residential (outdoors activities), delivery of a community project, 2 week work experience placement, employability skills and mock interviews, a team challenge and finally a graduation ceremony where all the young people have to stand up and present to a room full of stakeholders. It’s an extremely challenging, but infinitely rewarding job.
- Assist in the smooth operation of the department in co-operation with other members of the team
- Assist the administrative workload of the Course Manager
- Support with various activities as per programme.
- Provide excellent customer service skills and support internal and external stakeholders, students and the wider Adults & Future Skills community.
- Contribute to efficient communication within the team
- Support the Course Manager to ensure systems and processes are maintained and up to date.
- Provide learning support guidance to learners, ensure successful completion of their programme

Support the Course Manager in the retention and achievement of learners throughout their programme.

Assist the Curriculum Area Manager in any other duties relevant to the post.

Ideally you will have:

- Knowledge of working with and support vulnerable adults in an education setting
- Experience of supporting learners in a group and one-to-one setting.
- Experience of working in an outreach and community-based role with a range of agencies and organisations
- The ability to effectively support and build trusting and positive relationships with vulnerable adults, resulting in positive outcomes and progression
- Experience of recruiting young people to take part in training/outreach activities in the community
- Experience of building and maintaining positive and productive relationships with stakeholders and professionals in aid of the recruitment process
- Experience of supporting challenging behaviour of vulnerable adults in a group setting, or one-to-one
- A sound knowledge of Safeguarding children and young people and experience of managing such situations
- The ability to work as part of a team to achieve common objectives
- The ability to complete funder paperwork and achieve performance outcomes
