Birmingham, United Kingdom Red 5 People Full time

Are you a graduate looking to launch your career? Or maybe you have experience of working with young people with support needs? Would you like to join a large charity who support young people with learning disabilities and learning difficulties (autism / ADHD) to thrive in the world of work?

The charity delivers a supported internship programme. Young people study employability & life skills whilst imbedding English and Maths on the course. As part of this, they will be allocated an employer to go on a work placement with. Your role will vary day to day, but could include:

- Supporting the young person to plan their journey to work so they can become independent
- Attending work with them, working closely with employers to provide support as needed
- End of day calls with the young person and employer to check on progress
- Liaising closely with the tutor around potential extra support needs

You will have a caseload of 5 - 6 young people and you will be making a huge difference in their lives.

To apply, you might be a recent graduate in a related degree such as psychology. Or you might have experience of working with young people with support needs, so could have worked as a tutor, teacher or learning support assistant or teaching assistant. You might have also worked as a support worker, hostel worker, careers advisor or employment advisor.
