Youth Progression Coach

As an Employment Youth Progression Coach, you will play a key role in helping young people build the confidence, skills and resilience they need to progress towards employment, education or training. You will deliver high-impact, engaging group learning alongside tailored one-to-one support, helping participants develop practical life and workplace skills such as communication, teamwork, problem-solving, digital skills, workplace behaviours, job search and interview preparation.

Working as part of a wider team, you will collaborate closely with Employer Partnership Managers, employers and local support services to create a joined-up journey for each participant. This will include preparing young people for and supporting their participation in employer-led sector tasters, while helping them access additional learning, wellbeing and specialist support where required.

A key part of the role will be supporting young people who may be experiencing childcare or caring responsibilities, low confidence, wellbeing challenges or other barriers associated with youth unemployment, helping them identify practical solutions and take positive steps towards their future.
