This is more than a job; it's a chance to be a catalyst for change! We're seeking a passionate Youth Worker to bridge two incredible communities: Urban Promise UK and St Mark's Church. You'll be at the heart of our Student Leader programme, mentoring teens, championing their academic growth, and empowering them as they contribute to our after-school club and kitchen. If you can think on your feet, juggle multiple tasks with a smile, and inspire young minds in a fast-paced environment, this is for you!
You'll also be a driving force during our Easter and Summer Holiday Clubs, leading planning sessions, delivering dynamic training, and orchestrating exciting trips that create unforgettable memories.
Crucially, your role extends to our wider youth community. As the Youth Worker for St Mark's Church, you'll lead engaging Bible studies and shared meals on Tuesday evenings, and inspire our young people during Sunday morning services. With many of our UPUK Student Leaders also calling St Mark's their home, you'll be instrumental in fostering one cohesive, vibrant youth community, where all young people feel connected and empowered.
This unique dual role requires a dynamic individual who can seamlessly adapt between a charity and church setting, always striving to strengthen the bonds and serve the young people who often belong to both. Are you ready to shape lives and build a unified, thriving youth community in Marks Gate?
