Contract: Part time/ Sessional 

Closing Date: Ongoing

The Youth Worker role will involve working alongside our youth work team, ensuring the delivery of high-quality youth work in Didcot, and to build long-lasting positive relationships with the young people who access our various provisions.

In your role, you will support the youth provision we currently have in place. This is comprised of a varied offer, including a mixture of street-based detached youth work, outreach youth work where it is needed most, an LGBTQ+ youth group, young women’s and young men’s groups, participation, holiday programmes and a regular open-access youth club. This role will give you the opportunity to meet the young people’s ever-changing needs responsively.

You’ll support the team to deliver high-quality, responsive youth work across open access, detached and mentoring provision.

We’re looking for someone who is committed to reaching young people who may not access other services, especially those who feel overlooked, unheard or unsure where they belong. We’d like you to be comfortable spending time in the community, meeting young people on their terms, and building relationships. You will have the opportunity to support the delivery of youth work across a range of settings, including parks, schools, and youth clubs, and help create welcoming, inclusive spaces where young people feel seen and supported.

Your role will be supported by the Youth Work Manager and you will report directly to them.
