**PROFILE**

You will be providing restorative mentoring services for children and young people aged 10-17 referred directly from secondary schools and pupil referral units in Manchester due to being at risk of being excluded and involved in the criminal justice system.

You will provide:

- Intensive mentoring support for children and young people referred to the project.
- Restorative Justice services between these children/young people and any identified victim of their behaviour

Examples of this will include both emotional and practical support, with a focus on;
- resolving any accommodation issues and family relationship issues
- supporting and encouraging individuals to form/engage in healthy relationships/friendships with family members and peers
- supporting children/young people to access and engage with Education Training or Employment

**FLEXIBILITY-** weekends and early evening working may be required to meet the availability and needs of the children and young people.

**MOTIVATION-** This role is very rewarding and can make a significant difference to someone’s life. Many of the young people we support face a number of challenges and can find it difficult to engage. You will need to provide encouragement and support and use innovative strategies in order to meet their needs and to motivate them to engage.

**IT CAPABLE-** We want you to spend the majority of your time working with people. There is, however a responsibility to record information accurately and promptly on our secure case recording system. As a result, it is essential that you are proficient in using:
We will encourage and expect you to maximise the use of remote methods of working with people remotely. It is essential therefore that you are comfortable with using platforms such as TEAMS and ZOOM.

**SAFETY-** We want you to work safely in all aspects of the role
- health and safety, safeguarding for all concerned, data protection, risk assessment etc. Full training will be provided in all of these aspects, and we will be looking for someone committed to achieving high standards in regard to all of these issues.

**WHAT TO EXPECT**

The role will be based in Manchester and whilst every effort will be made to focus the location of work in a particular area, applicants should be prepared to work anywhere in the city.
