London, Greater London, United Kingdom Barnardos Full time

Transform the lives of children and young people by joining Barnardo's innovative project introducing a new parenting intervention to address youth violence in the UK.

We are seeking enthusiastic practitioners with experience working with young people and their families, preferably in serious youth violence contexts. Passionate about improving outcomes for at-risk youth through positive parental support, you will work in a team to deliver the GEN PMTO programme after comprehensive training. Maintaining programme integrity is crucial, requiring attendance at all training sessions and adherence to course material outlines. Gathering feedback, outcomes, and impact data will be a central aspect of this role, as this information will be vital in determining the programme's effectiveness. We need a strong, cohesive team that is open to exploring innovative ways of working with parents to enhance outcomes for young people.

Barnardo's believes every child has the right to a fulfilling life, realizing their potential, and having a positive future. We focus on building stronger families and enhancing family bonds through partnerships.

This London-based job requires delivering the programme to groups of parents in two identified boroughs to assess its effectiveness in the UK. The 37-hour workweek will be flexible across the week, with some evening and weekend work possible. Travel around London may be necessary, with occasional home-based days for administrative tasks.

The salary for this position ranges from £28,283 to £32,323, dependent on experience. This is a permanent contract expected to run from July 2023 to March 2026. Interviews will take place prior to the advert closing date, and the posting will close once all positions have been filled.

This role offers:

  • A chance to be part of the first trial of a highly successful project in the UK
  • To make a significant difference in the lives of children and young people by strengthening family bonds
  • A challenging and rewarding job
  • Comprehensive training on the successful programme, providing considerable learning and development opportunities
  • A supportive working environment and management team

Requirements for this position include:

  • A relevant professional qualification, such as Social Work, Youth Work, Probation, Health, Education, or a degree with relevant experience
  • An enhanced DBS check is required (payable by Barnardo's)
  • The successful candidate should enjoy trialling new programmes and be a proven solution-based, positive leader
  • No prior knowledge of the programme is necessary, as full training will be provided, which must be attended
  • Travel across London to deliver sessions and maintaining good relationships with the team is essential, along with minimal home working for administrative tasks

Please refer to the attached person and profile specification for the essential criteria relating to this post and the additional information sheet for more specific details and qualification requirements.

We believe our colleagues go above and beyond in delivering our vital work, driven by their passion and commitment to Barnardo's values. We know that we can only realise our ambitions and achieve better outcomes for more children, thanks to the talent, hard work, and creativity of our people.

We are committed to a new approach to pay and reward, ensuring it is fair, attractive, and progressive. This change is part of our People & Culture Strategy, assisting us in supporting colleagues to grow and develop in their career at Barnardo's.

We offer a range of benefits, including:

  • Barnardo's believes in creating equality of opportunity in the workplace and supporting people to manage their work-life balance; we are therefore open to offering flexible working arrangements
  • 26 days annual leave plus bank holidays, increasing after 5 years service
  • The ability to buy up to another 5 days annual leave via our HolidayPlus scheme
  • A host of family-friendly leave options, including company Maternity Paternity and Adoption pay; together with all family additional leave options
  • Service-related sick pay from day 1
  • Access to a Group Personal Pension with a matched 4% or 6% contribution from Barnardo's. Ability to pay via salary sacrifice to garner both tax and NI savings on your own contribution
  • Death in service cover of 4x annual earnings for all staff contributing to our Group Personal Pension
  • Cycle2work scheme
  • Interest-free season ticket loans
  • Discounts and cashback from at high street shops, including major supermarkets, cinemas, gyms, leisure/theme parks, holidays, and much more via our Benefit Portal
