In this brand-new role, you will take the lead on supporting our young carers, volunteer mentors, and partner schools—making a real, lasting difference in the community and to the young carers we support.
Our vision is for all young carers to flourish. Through long-term mentoring, group programmes, and our annual Aspirations Conference, we help young people succeed in education, build confidence, and unlock future opportunities. We are looking for an experienced, enthusiastic self-starter who is genuinely passionate about helping others thrive.
You’ll be right at the heart of our service delivery—whether you’re working directly with inspiring young people, empowering our volunteer mentors, or collaborating with the wider team on fundraising and events. Alongside being part of a supportive team, this role has a degree of autonomy, meaning you'll need the excellent organisational skills to manage your own day, the interpersonal spark to build strong relationships, and the flexibility for evening work.
