Centre 33 is an ambitious and growing charity based across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. We offer a range of high-quality services to young people aged up to 25, including information and support on a "drop in" basis, mental health services, counselling, housing and financial advice, sexual health support and support for young carers.
This is an exciting opportunity to join our established 'Someone to Talk to' service in a Team Lead role. The Team Lead will manage and oversee a team of staff and volunteers supporting young people across Centre 33's two hubs in our South Locality – in Cambridge City and Ely. The Team Lead will work closely with the other Team Leads and Heads of Service to jointly ensure our multidisciplinary teams deliver excellent, safe, impactful and responsive services to young people.
We are looking for a highly motivated professional with experience working within a practical support, youth work or mental health role, and with experience of managing people. The Team Lead will bring strong expertise and leadership to Centre 33's holistic support offer for young people aged 13-25 years: our open-access drop-in, ongoing support around practical needs such as housing, and flexible mental health support. They will be responsible for providing support with case allocation, case management, reflective practice, risk management and Safeguarding. They will provide day-to-day designated Safeguarding leadership, supported by the Head of Service and Director of Services. They will develop strong relationships with local organisations to ensure effective joint working and support for young people. This role may deliver ad hoc case work to support young people with more complex needs but will not hold an ongoing regular case load.
The hours of work for this role are predominantly within core opening hours of 10 to 6pm, with some evening/Saturday working based on a rota. Due to our service delivery, it is important that the Team Lead is available for hub-based work during our core working hours.
This role will work to Centre 33's values of being young people led, collaborative, inclusive and striving for excellence.
