The Centre is a fantastic 54 acre site in south west Essex which is full of opportunity.

These are used to generate a wide range of programmes which promote and deliver personal development opportunities for young people, especially those at risk or struggling in traditional mainstream environments. All the programmes are designed to encourage team building, problem solving and communication skills, as well as build confidence and raise aspirations.

Suitable candidates should have: 

• Experience of working with and talking to young people from a variety of backgrounds and with a variety of needs
• Experience and interest in working in the outdoor environment
• Experience creating and planning new ideas
• Experience of using IT for research and planning purposes

The post is based on a 35 hour week, but may involve flexible working.

Due to the nature of the work, the post will be subject to an enhanced DBS check.
