Our charity, the Jon Egging Trust, is looking for a highly motivated individual with experience of working with young people, to plan and deliver inspiring confidence-building programmes in Hampshire (mainly across South and East Hampshire). The role will liaise professionally with school staff, local partners (including military and local businesses), and volunteers to ensure programmes meet the needs of our young people. Working closely with the Regional Manager for Hampshire and Oxfordshire, the post holder will be forward thinking and help to grow the trust's presence locally whilst identifying new opportunities.

Fuel expenses are paid and travel time is included as part of working hours. Working predominantly with schools to provide early support programmes, core delivery time is usually within the school-working day and during school terms only. All other working hours can be managed with flexibility by the post holder to ensure that all administrative tasks are completed as required.

**Who are we?**

The Jon Egging Trust is a dynamic and innovative youth engagement charity supporting young people to realise their potential.

Over the past decade, JET has supported more than 30,000 young lives through our unique motivational and inspirational programmes, based on teamwork, leadership and employability skills, which we deliver in collaboration with corporate and military partners across the UK. The Covid-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on young people, with those from disadvantaged backgrounds disproportionately affected. Our interventions are needed more than ever. With ambitions to reach out to more young people by 2031, it’s truly an exciting time to join our team.

The Trust was set up in honour of Flt Lt Jon Egging, who lost his life following a display at the Bournemouth Air Festival in 2011. He was coming to the end of his first year with the world-famous Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team ‘The Red Arrows’ flying in the position of Red 4.
