You’ll also support recruitment, retention, and community outreach, while delivering engaging sessions that keep young people motivated.

Alongside this, as an Enterprise Youth Worker, you will help young people develop entrepreneurial and business skills through initiatives like the £10 Challenge. You’ll support them in creating ideas, designing products, and running small ventures as part of fundraising activities.

You will also lead a 6–9 month enterprise programme where teams set up and run a business or social action project, take on board roles, and compete in areas such as sales, marketing, teamwork, and presentation.

Knowledge of health and safety, diversity awareness and safeguarding best practice and how these relate to children and young people
Delivery of activities within an equality framework

A professional Youth Work or teaching qualification at Level 3 or above (or equivalent) - Essential

Special Requirements

DBS clearance and committed to Safeguarding children
Occasional weekend work to support the requirements of the role
