  • Collaborate with other professionals to develop and implement support plans that meet the needs of young people.
Requirements

  • Experience of direct work with young people in a relevant setting.
  • Experience of creating tailored support plans with young people and demonstrating the positive outcomes achieved.
  • Experience of delivering group-based sessions, including issue-based workshops and independent living skills programmes.
  • Ability to travel independently to meet the requirements of the post.
