About Springboard

Springboard is a registered charity dedicated to building sustainable, thriving communities by equipping people with the essential skills they need for work and life. Through our Study Programmes, Apprenticeships and Adult Skills courses, we create confident, employable, life‑ready learners.

With almost 50 years of experience, we are proud to be an Ofsted GOOD provider.

Role Summary

We are seeking a dedicated and motivated Learning Support Assistant to join our Planning for Progression (P4P) provision supporting young people who are Not in Education, Employment or Training (NEET).

This is a varied and rewarding role, with opportunities to also support across other vocational programmes as needed.

Support learners to prepare for work placements, including workplace expectations, behaviour, and communication skills.
Assist with the coordination and administration of work placements.
Provide support to learners during placements, including workplace visits where appropriate.
Liaise with tutors and placement leads to monitor learner progress and wellbeing in the workplace.
Help ensure placements are positive, safe, and meaningful learning experiences.

Programme Delivery Support

Work closely with tutors to support lesson delivery, preparation of materials, and learner activities.
Contribute to tracking learner progress, including maintaining accurate records and supporting reviews.
Support enrichment activities, employer engagement sessions, and external visits.
Promote professionalism and appropriate behaviour, particularly when learners are engaging with employers or the public.

Wider Contribution

Provide support across other programmes as required.
Assist in promoting programmes and engaging learners.
Work collaboratively with colleagues and external partners to support learner success.
Follow organisational policies and procedures, including safeguarding, health and safety, equality, and diversity.
Undertake additional duties appropriate to the role as required.

Person Specification

Essential

Experience of working with young people, particularly those facing barriers to learning.
Ability to build positive, supportive relationships with learners.
Strong interpersonal and communication skills.
Patient, empathetic, and encouraging approach.
Ability to work effectively as part of a team.
Good organisational skills and attention to detail.
Basic IT skills.
GCSE (or equivalent) Maths and English at Level 2.
Flexible and adaptable approach to work.

Desirable

Experience working with NEET learners or in alternative education settings.
Knowledge of safeguarding and supporting vulnerable learners.
Experience supporting work placements or employer engagement activity.
Relevant support or teaching assistant qualification.
