We are seeking individuals who are inspired by playing an important role in changing people’s lives and therefore communities. We are all about creating inspirational pathways and opportunities, opening doors and welcoming all to get involved and make a positive difference. Working for us means helping children, young people and adults of all levels of ability and from all walks of life, to reach their full potential.

Objectives of the Trusted Relationships Project

Building on the extensive experience of delivering intensive youth support to vulnerable young people who irrespective of the nature of their exploitation share similar risk indicators and vulnerabilities, we are looking to appoint a dynamic individual to join our Children and Young People’s team who will work as part of a wider Trusted Relationships partnership approach to preventing exploitation. The group work programme is an innovative area-based youth work response to prevent young people aged 10-14 becoming involved in exploitation in Bradford East through targeted preventative youth work in school and community settings.

The main duties will include:

Project Worker – Trusted Relationships

  • To plan and deliver targeted group work sessions to meet the needs of children and young people between the ages of 10 – 14 identified as at risk of exploitation

There is also opportunity to provide further support through out of school key working:

Keyworker – Trusted Relationships

  • To provide intensive 1-1 support to children and young people between the ages of 10 – 14 identified as at risk of exploitation (CSE, Trafficking, Criminality, County Lines, Radicalisation etc.) who do not meet the threshold for statutory intervention and who, by the nature of their vulnerability are not responding to mainstream provision. 

To the successful candidate we offer:

  • 28 days annual leave (Pro rata) (including Bank Holidays)
  • Flexible working environment
  • Opportunities to apply for other internal roles
  • An opportunity to work for a company who offer on-going development within your role.
