Role Responsibility In Kent, our approach to the ‘Turn Around’ programme is to enhance our Adolescent Early Help offer by providing specialist education, training, and employment support, to maximise attendance, engagement, and attainment of a target group of children. We’re looking to recruit an Education, Training and Employment (ETE) Officer for our Turn Around team. Posts are funded by the Ministry of Justice until the end of March 2026. ETE Officers are required for the following areas; West Kent (Tunbridge Wells, Tonbridge and Malling, and Sevenoaks), South Kent (Ashford and Canterbury) and East Kent (Thanet and Canterbury) and will be aligned to, and working alongside, the Adolescent Early Help unit in that area, and line managed by the Unit Lead. Full time and part time (4 days per week) opportunities are available. We will be exhausting our redeployment pool first, followed by any external applicants. We’re looking for motivated and skilled people with a mixture of excellent knowledge of the education, training, and employment landscape (including legislation and practice in relation to part-time tables, inclusion, and attendance), with the enthusiasm and resilience to offer excellent hands-on, practical support directly to children and their families. This post is subject to an Enhanced Disclosure Application to the Disclosure and Barring Service. This post is considered by KCC to be a customer-facing position. The Council therefore has a statutory duty under Part 7 of the Immigration Act (2016) to ensure that post holders have a command of spoken English/Welsh sufficient for the effective performance of the job requirements. The appropriate standards are set out in the Job Description/Person Specification. Further information about the national Turn Around programme is available online.
