* Manage a caseload and keep clear, accurate records.


What we''re looking for:
* Someone who relates easily to young people, including those with experience of trauma, mental health challenges, or substance misuse.
* Confidence engaging young people creatively and actively.
* Strong communication and IT skills.
* Ability to work independently and as part of a supportive team.
* Experience from youth work, housing, education, or similar roles (transferable skills welcome).

What you''ll get:
* Up to 25 days'' annual leave.
