Bath, Bath and North East Somerset, United Kingdom Bath and North East Somerset Council Full time

Please note this is not a Bath & North East Somerset Council Vacancy.

Mentoring Plus, an award-winning youth charity, supports young people aged 5-25 across various projects, focusing on offering positive 1-1 mentoring and opportunities to young people facing challenges, helping to build confidence, self-esteem, engagement with education, and improved emotional wellbeing.

Our Student & Family Support (SAFS) service is a fully funded BathNES commission supporting young people to integrate into education following low attendance, exclusion, or periods outside mainstream school.

We are seeking skilled and confident professionals to join the SAFS team as Mentoring Practitioners, one commencing ASAP and one in January 2025.

Key Responsibilities:

  • 37.5 hours per week, year-round or scope for termtime-plus contract (approx. 41 weeks per year)
  • From £14.46 per hour dependent upon experience
  • Based Bath and working across Bath & NE Somerset

As a member of our team, you will receive regular management supervision and monthly clinical supervision. We offer regular training, practice sharing, and a commitment to staff wellbeing and development. Our small and friendly team comprises like-minded individuals all motivated to help young people feel safe, feel heard, and feel hopeful for the future.

This role will take you to schools across Bath & NE Somerset daily, so driving and unlimited access to a well-maintained vehicle is essential. Some home-based working is possible between visits.

Working within an established and supportive team and a proven delivery model, as a full-time SAFS Mentoring Practitioner, you will work directly with a cohort of 8-10 young people aged 5-16 and their families (each case typically up to 16 weeks) to understand and address underlying difficulties, develop resilience, offer practical help, and forge supportive connections for the student within their school.

SAFS Mentoring Practitioners make a real difference to students struggling in education and their families, helping to identify unmet needs, unlocking practical solutions, and rebuilding relationships with schools, leading to greater wellbeing and positive aspirations.

You will need to be happy working in homes, in schools, and in the community to offer time, space, and guidance, as well as applying strong knowledge of safeguarding and the local support infrastructure.

It's fast-moving, rewarding work using awareness of emotional wellbeing and health to understand individual needs and circumstances, responding creatively and advocating for the student to be heard. You will need excellent relational skills and recent, relevant knowledge of school systems and safeguarding. Confident and compassionate communication will be a strength.
