The 'Young Start Progressions' programme at 'The Pavilion' will be a dynamic 2-year programme, led by young people, supported by staff and volunteers and by existing and new partnership opportunities. Our three-pronged approach aims to empower young individuals across various stages of their development:

• Primary/Secondary Transitions Programme: We will provide support for P7, S1, and S2 young people as they transition from primary to secondary school, fostering empowerment, confidence, and improved self-esteem in a non-school environment.
• Volunteer Mentoring Programme: Expanding on our successful volunteering mentoring initiative, we offer diverse opportunities for young volunteers, connecting them with roles both within Pavilion and through our network of school partnerships and community collaborations.
• Attainment Programme: Focused on enhancing pathways for Junior and Senior Club participants, we integrate life skills development seamlessly into existing activities. From goal-setting exercises, certificated activity programmes to accredited learning and further training opportunities.

We are seeking a Programme Coordinator to lead the delivery of this project as well as managing the Attainment Worker & Volunteer Development Worker posts attached to this project.

Being creative, innovative and ideas driven, to support delivery of multiple programmes of activity and be able to forge strong positive relationships with partners are key attributes for this post. The postholder will be responsible for taking a

coordinated approach to implementing activities with young people that address the key identified issues affecting them, ensuring their needs are addressed and pathways created that help them to succeed.

The postholder should have experience working with a range of age groups and are able to demonstrate experience in taking a youth-led approach to service delivery.

It is an exciting time at the DRC Youth Project! Our charity is growing, and we are looking to strengthen our team by welcoming a new motivated group worker onto our team of staff.

• Are you motivated and passionate about working together with young people?
• Do you have a ‘can do’ attitude?
• Can you inspire young people to make positive changes in their lives?
• Are you excited about working for a modern charity with great opportunities for career progression?
• Do you have a UK Driver’s License?

The DRC Youth Project is a modern youth service which offers safe spaces and supports young people. The new group worker will work together with groups of young people across DRC personal development initiatives. The aim of each group is to provide support, advice and guidance on employment, training and career and personal development for the young people. In doing this, the new group worker will liaise with relevant bodies as directed with a key focus on prevention, employability and in some cases, recovery. At the DRC, young people are at the heart of everything we do, and our aim is that every young person we work with is empowered to live their life to its fullest potential.

The group worker’s core function is to offer a variety of information and support that will help fulfil the personal development requirements of each young person. The group worker will equip the young people to meet life challenges and in particular allow them to access employment and a career path within their own aspirations and capabilities. To achieve this, the post holder will continually engage with young people utilising various DRC Youth Project resources and key specialist partners. The post holder will also support the DRC management team in the day to day running of the project’s various youth provisions.
