Job Description

Are you fun, full of energy, and passionate about making a difference in young people’s lives? We’re looking for Sessional Youth Workers – Recreation to help bring our Recreation area to life at Base71 Youth Zone. As the beating heart of the Youth Zone, it’s a space where no two days are the same – from pool tournaments and quizzes to health debates, games, and projects. You’ll create a safe, welcoming environment where young people aged 8–19 (or up to 25 with SEND) can relax, get involved, and have their voices heard.
You’ll need experience working with young people and the energy, creativity, and positivity to engage and support them in trying new things. Just as importantly, you’ll bring the ability to build positive relationships with young people from all backgrounds, while promoting equality, inclusion, and wellbeing. Knowledge of safeguarding, inclusion, and health & safety is also essential, with training provided.
