Tradewind are recruiting for a **Youth Worker**

Do you have a natural ability to connect with young people?

Are you empathetic & patient towards the challenges and obstacles of others?

This is a role for a **Youth Worker** on a full time basis at a Secondary Alternative Provision School in the central Manchester area catering for young people with Social, Emotional or Mental Health needs (SEMH).

Hours will be Monday to Friday 8:30am to 3:30pm (3pm finish on Fridays).

Pay could be up to £85/day depending on experience.

The role could eventually turn permanent with the school for the right person.

To join us and be successful in this Youth Worker** **role, you will need to:

- Overseas Police Clearances (if applicable).
- 2 professional references.
- Provide a CV with a full history from your education until present.
- Have the legal right to work in the UK.
- Some experience supporting children or young adults from vulnerable backgrounds.

The role is working as a Youth Worker at a secondary alternative provision school in the Manchester area. You will be supporting young people in small groups or on a 1:1 basis. Your role will be primarily to provide pastoral & behaviour support including managing behaviour in the classroom, corridors and outdoor areas. You will also be required to deliver 1:1 pastoral support which will mean closely aiding young people who have Social, Emotional & Mental Health (SEMH) obstacles to learning and providing a listening ear while acting as a trusted and positive role model. You may also need to deal with crisis situations, disclosures, altercations etc.

As a Youth Worker you will be required to support with vocational activities and sessions that focus on life skills, sports, DT, arts, construction, computing, food tech etc. as well as some support in core academic lessons.

Young people have a range of needs including SEMH and associated difficulties such as ADHD, ODD, autism, attachment disorder and other challenging behaviours. They can often display physical or verbal aggression so as the new Youth Worker will need to have strong behaviour management skills and need to be resilient to challenging situations and not take things personally.
