We're looking for people who are compassionate, resilient, approachable and genuinely interested in helping young people develop.
You'll need good communication skills, patience and the ability to remain calm when situations become challenging.
An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service or willingness to obtain one is required.

- Full-time and part-time positions.

For some young people, having one consistent adult who listens, encourages and believes in them can change their entire experience of education.
