U-evolve is an Edinburgh mental health charity for 11–21-year-olds. Founded in 2015, we support over 200 young people annually with free to access to mental health support. Each year we deliver over 1,000 hours of individual support to help Edinburgh’s young people feel better. We’re currently hiring for a Mental Health Coach to join our Service Delivery team.

About the role

We are recruiting for an additional Mental Health Coach to join our team to help us meet demand. The coach will provide 1:1 support for young people, as well as supporting our groupwork and drop-in programmes. Our Mental Health Coaching is person centered, strengths based and incorporates counselling, coaching and youth work approaches. The aim of all our support services is to help young people to have improved mental health and to feel better. Through mental health coaching we help the young people to learn techniques to manage their wellbeing and work closely with community partners to provide a holistic service.

Who are we looking for

We want to recruit people to join our team who share our vision, values, and passion to support young people to thrive. It is also important to us that you are someone who learns from the young people you support and can help our young people’s voices to be heard.
