Greater Manchester Youth Network (GMYN) is a youth charity that creates opportunities so that disadvantaged young people from across Greater Manchester (GM) can take steps towards a positive future.
We support young people to be safe, valued and ambitious by delivering high quality programmes and building the capacity of other youth organisations.
We are recruiting a new staff member to join our care experienced team to support the delivery of a new 2-year volunteering life skills development and employability programme that will directly support Care Leavers aged 16-25 in Trafford.
The Programme Coordinator will directly support Care Leavers over two years via a mixture of weekly 1-1 and group sessions offering volunteering, social action, life skills training and employability workshops across Trafford.
The fundamental aim of this new programme is to improve the life chances of Care Leavers in Trafford. The youth led activities will ensure that any impact is long term. They will aim to help the individuals progress onto a positive and independent future.
The worker will be expected to work independently and as part of the wider GMYN team, with opportunities to learn and share good practice through GMYN’s other programmes.
The role will be based at Trafford and GMYN's Head Office in the Northern Quarter.
