Are you passionate about making a difference to the future of young people in Leicester? Why not join us and play an integral role in providing employment opportunities to young people aged 16-25?

Get Inspired is a project part
- funded by the European Social Fund to provide employability support for young people who are not in employment, education, and provide training to reduce youth unemployment. This post would be a great opportunity to gain valuable experience working with vulnerable young people in our city through to the end of the year.

Due to the career progression of some of our team we have an opportunity to become a valued member of the Youth Employment Hub in Leicester City Centre which forms part of our wider Connexions service.

This is a full time position working 37 hours a week Monday to Friday, although part-time will be considered. This is on a fixed term contract until December 2023. Typical working hours are 8.30am-5.00pm Monday to Thursday and 8.30am-4.30pm on a Friday. However, on occasion you may be required to work out of these hours. You’ll be based at the Youth Employment Hub, however you’ll also be required to travel across the city on a regular basis to try and engage with your caseload. Occasional working from home may be possible.

**What you’ll be doing**

Your work will involve meeting young people in a variety of community and neighbourhood settings across the city. Working closely with colleagues, training providers and employers, you’ll provide employment and training advice to identified young people to integrate them into the labour market.

You’ll manage a caseload of young people and provide ongoing encouragement to help them overcome barriers that prevent their capacity to engage with learning and education and employment. You’ll signpost them to other agencies and partners and enable them to access information which will assist them in finding suitable employment. Using different forms of media and social media, you’ll market and promote opportunities as well as provide clear and accurate information for young people.

**What you'll need**

Ideally, you’ll have experience of working with young people, providing them with advice and guidance, you’ll have knowledge and understanding of the challenges and issues facing young people, businesses, individuals, and communities and how these can be addressed. Using your excellent interpersonal skills and expertise, you'll be able to relate to young people to gain an understanding of their needs and kickstart their potential in the world of employment. With your ability to proactively engage, develop and motivate young people, you’ll raise their aspirations to ensure a positive progression into employment, education, or training.

Appointment to this role will be based on an Enhanced Children’s DBS and Driving License check. You must have ownership of your own vehicle to travel to various locations around Leicester City.

**What we can offer you**

As well as the satisfaction of helping to improve thousands of lives across Leicester, you can look forward to a work environment that encourages a healthy work/life balance.
