We are looking for people who want to make a meaningful difference in the lives of autistic young adults. If you share our mission to ensure autistic young adults have opportunities for choice, independence and participation in their communities, we’d love to hear from you.
You’ll work closely with colleagues across the team and build positive relationships with the young adults you support. We’re looking for someone who communicates clearly, stays calm under pressure and is committed to helping young adults develop skills at their own pace.
Job Purpose
This role supports an autistic young adult in our Post-19 service and in the local community. Working as part of a team of Teaching and Learning Mentors, you will provide tailored support using behaviour analysis teaching methods to help an autistic young adult with associated learning needs access learning and develop new skills.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You will work alongside the Class Lead, Behaviour Analysts and Advanced Skills Practitioners to help ensure each day is safe, purposeful and engaging. Following the principles of behaviour analysis, you will support learning in ways that recognise individual strengths, needs and pace of progress. Training in applying behaviour analysis within an adult setting will be provided. Our approach starts with understanding behaviour as communication and working alongside young adults to develop skills that support greater independence and participation in everyday life.
