Job Description

Youth Worker (2) (10/11567) (16/599)

Dumfries

£2,612.25 - £2,743.75

You will be required to work 3 hours per week, 52.14 weeks per year

Do you care about getting it right for young people?
Do you believe you can help young people reach their full potential?
Do you work best in energetic, fast‑paced and fun environments?

If yes — we’d LOVE you to join our Youth Work Team!

Dumfries and Galloway Council is looking for a committed and enthusiastic Youth Worker to help deliver high quality youth work opportunities for young people aged 12–25 across Nithsdale.

You’ll be part of a friendly, supportive team that puts young people at the heart of everything we do.

What You’ll Do

As a Youth Worker, you’ll help to:

Create fun, safe, welcoming spaces where young people feel valued, heard, and included.
Plan and deliver engaging youth work sessions—from drop‑ins and projects to outdoor activities, workshops, and events.
Support young people’s personal and social development, building confidence, resilience, and leadership skills.
Champion youth voice, encouraging young people to shape the services and things that matter most to them.
Work alongside schools, partners, and community groups to make a positive impact in local communities.

Every day is different — and that’s what makes youth work rewarding.

We’re Looking For Someone Who:

Is passionate about working with young people
Is that person that brings energy, humour and positivity into the room
Is able to build trusting, respectful relationships
Can meet young people where they’re at, not where you think they should be
Can make every young person feel seen, heard and valued
Is willing to learn and develop professionally

Experience in youth work is welcome — but what matters most is your attitude, values, and ability to connect with young people.

Requirements

Ready to Join Us?

If you like what you’ve heard so far and want to be part of a youth work service that’s growing, evolving, and making a real impact across Dumfries and Galloway — we’d love to hear from you.

All training required will be provided.

A current driving licence is an essential requirement of this post. However, if
you have a disability which precludes you from holding a driving licence
consideration will be given if alternative transport can be arranged.

The post will require evening and weekend work on a weekly basis, for which
payment is included in the salary offered.

This post is considered as Regulated Work with Vulnerable Children and
Protected Adults, under the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act
2007. From 28 February 2011, preferred candidates will be required to join
the PVG Scheme or undergo a PVG scheme update check prior to formal
offer of employment being made by Dumfries and Galloway Council.

Applicants who have been resident outside the UK within the last 5 years, if
offered a position, in addition to a Disclosure Scotland Check, will be required
to provide a completed police record check from the police authority in the
country or countries in which they were resident.

With an exciting benefits package, working for Dumfries and Galloway Council supports you to invest in your own health and wellbeing. Employees have access to our bespoke Vivup platform with over 800 discounts on everyday essentials from top UK retailers, restaurants, utility providers and more. Employees also get access to membership of The Local Government Pension Scheme (Scotland) exclusive discounts from local businesses, a Cycle-to-Work scheme, financial support from My Money Matters, and guidance from our trained Wellbeing Champions.

Here at Dumfries and Galloway Council we are committed to equality, diversity and equal opportunity with our values, which include treating everyone with dignity, fairness and respect, driving us to tackle inequality. We are looking for people that can bring different perspectives and experiences and especially welcome applications from those who are underrepresented in our organisation.
