Lead Something That Matters — Shape a New Sports‑Led Youth Provision in West Thurrock If you’re the kind of youth worker who wants to build, create, and genuinely shape a community offer, this is the role you’ve been waiting for. At Riverview, sport isn’t an add‑on — it’s the heartbeat of how we engage young people. As our Senior Youth Worker (Sports), you’ll have the rare chance to help design a brand‑new youth provision from the ground up, bringing your ideas, energy, and passion straight into a community that’s ready for something fresh. You won’t be boxed in. You’ll lead sessions your way, influence how the programme grows, and work in a close‑knit team where your voice actually matters. With over 100 young people already engaging weekly across our sites, you’ll step into a role where relationships are real, creativity is encouraged, and your leadership directly shapes young people’s confidence, wellbeing, and opportunities. If you want to make sport the spark that changes lives — this is your space. Our Mission Riverview Charitable Trust supports families, children, and young people in the community to thrive. Through services and initiatives, we empower individuals, strengthen family relationships, and create opportunities for young people to grow, learn, and succeed. We are expanding our youth provision into West Thurrock, and we’re looking for an experienced, energetic Senior Youth Worker with a Sports background to help us put sport at the heart of what we do. This is a hands-on role for someone who loves working with young people, thrives in active environments, and can confidently lead day‑to‑day delivery across multiple sites. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES • Lead delivery on our sports programmes across two vibrant sites, creating sessions that young people genuinely want to show up for. • Play a key role in Riverview’s expansion into West Thurrock, helping us build something new, exciting, and community‑driven from the ground up. • Take sport into the streets and into young people’s spaces, using outreach, pop‑ups, and creative engagement to connect with those who need us most.
