About You

In this rewarding role, you'll work directly with children, young people and their families to help reduce offending, build resilience and create positive futures. You will work in a trauma informed way with all young people so experience of this will be a clear advantage.

• A supportive team environment with regular supervision and guidance.
• Opportunities for training, development and career progression.
• Strong partnership working and collaborative practice.
• The chance to make a real impact in your local community.
