Crynodeb
We are excited to be recruiting into YES. This role is designed to offer the most deserving young people the best chance at being successful in education and employment. The successful applicant will be trained to use psychologically informed techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support YES students to thrive in their education at YES and access sustainable employment opportunities beyond their time at YES, through using a relationship-based and trauma informed approach.
YES, is a registered alternative learning provision (ALP) which offers English and Maths functional skills tuition and/or qualifications in small friendly classes, or 1:1, to 16-25 year olds experiencing barriers to their learning. This role has been created to offer 1:1 tailored support to young people to overcome physical or emotional barriers to attending through using ACT techniques.
Please find full details of how to apply via our website in the advert below. The deadline for application submissions is 23:59, Monday 30 June 2025.
We are striving to better represent the young people we support and therefore are particularly keen to increase applications from minoritized ethnic groups, Muslim and male candidates as they are currently under-represented in our organisation. We also encourage applications from people with relevant lived experience.
If you need an adjustment to be made to any part of the recruitment process, please let us know as soon as possible.
Who are we?
We are a leading youth homelessness charity based in the Southwest, working with over 1,500 young people.
What you will be doing:
• By adopting a flexible and creative approach, you will enable young people to improve their confidence and wellbeing and overcome physical barriers (such as travel) to empower them to consistently engage in their education.

• You will be part of a passionate team of people surrounding each young person, providing holistic and specialist support adapted to meet the needs of each individual.
• By being empathetic and truly understanding the complex needs of our students, you will work with them 1:1 to create realistic and ambitious progression plans.
• Being well organised and efficient, you will effectively record, and evidence education, employment and wellbeing outcomes achieved by young people, ensuring safe working practice, and contributing to our effort to secure future funding of the project.
You will be in the Youth Education Service (YES) team and your line manager will be our YES Development Manager.
At 1625ip we are led by our Competency Development Framework. This connects our values to our behaviours in everything we do and gives us the tools to develop.
