Salary: £13759.20pa
Hours: 21hrs per week
If you’re someone who is passionate about making a real difference in the lives of young people, then this is your opportunity to do something truly meaningful. As a Learner Support , you'll be working directly with learners aged 16 and over—many of whom are navigating personal challenges, educational barriers, or simply in need of someone to believe in them.
This role is more than just support—it's about empowerment. You’ll have the chance to be a steady, positive influence, helping learners build confidence, develop skills, and overcome obstacles that may be holding them back. Whether it's through academic guidance, emotional encouragement, or just being someone who listens, your impact will be felt every day.
Every young person deserves the chance to succeed, and with your support, they can. If you’re patient, compassionate, and ready to be a champion for those who need it most, this is your chance to step in and help change lives—for the better.
This is an exciting opportunity for you to join the YMCA; a charity at the heart of the community in Derbyshire. We are committed to helping people at times of need, regardless of gender, race, ability or faith. Our values to Protect, Trust, Hope and Persevere underpin all of our services across the county.
Key College as part of YMCA Derbyshire is striving to support young people within our community learn new skills for later life and achieve accredited qualifications through the programmes we run.
We are seeking a creative thinker with a ‘can-do’ attitude and an ability and passion for educating young people.
This fast-paced and varied role gives an individual the chance to make a real impact on the success of the learners that we support. This role will focus on supporting our young people at our new green hub provision this year with access to a community garden, workspaces and construction spaces to develop our learners skills around construction, and practical work based skills.
A driving license and use of own car is essential as there will be an expectation to work across numerous sites.
At YMCA Derbyshire we aim to transform the lives of the people we work with for the better. We are looking for brilliant people who will ensure that safeguarding the people we work with is a priority.
YMCA Derbyshire is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. All roles are subject to thorough safeguarding checks, including references and an enhanced DBS check, in line with our safeguarding policies and a six-month probationary period.
YMCA Derbyshire are proud to be a 'Disability Confident Employer'. If you’re disabled, we will guarantee you an interview if you meet the minimum criteria for the role you’ve applied for. Are you a disabled candidate who would like to apply on this basis?
If you do not wish to apply under the scheme, but do require us to make reasonable adjustments for you to attend an interview, then please let us know what those adjustments will be.
What we offer:
25 days holiday (pro rata) as standard with an extra 2 days after 5 years of service
People celebration event each year. (Celebrating our Peoples Achievements)
