Over the past 18 months, our team has been building a movement of support for young people across Wales, having a significant impact on their life chances and working towards the aim of inspiring every young person in the country.
So far, we’ve already reached 19,000 students in-person and are connected with a third of all Welsh state secondary schools and colleges. In 2025, we’re aiming to reach 13,000 more young people — and we’re looking for a passionate colleague to help us make that happen.
About the role
As North Wales Project Coordinator, you’ll play a crucial role in:
* Connecting volunteers with schools and colleges, ensuring young people benefit from inspiring talks and workshops.
* Developing and maintaining strong relationships with schools, employers, and volunteers.
* Listening and adapting to the needs of young people, ensuring our programme creates real value for them and the stakeholders we work with.
You’ll be part of a flexible, entrepreneurial, and collaborative team that works remotely across Wales but comes together for events, volunteer training, school meetings, and team meet-ups. We set high expectations for ourselves and each other, value individual contributions, and celebrate shared success.
We’re seeking someone who is
* Fully committed to equality, diversity, and inclusion.
* Self-motivated and proactive, with a “can-do” attitude.
* Highly organised, able to juggle multiple priorities and meet deadlines.
* Skilled at building strong relationships, particularly with schools and colleges.
* Resilient, tenacious, and excited by new opportunities.
* Creative and open to trying new ideas.
* Ambitious for themselves and the charity.
* Confident with technology and has strong computer literacy.
* Experience within educational settings or working with young people in Wales.
* The ability to communicate in the medium of Welsh.
* Based in North Wales, or locations within England that are near to the border (e.g. Liverpool, Chester, Manchester)
* While not required, we particularly welcome applications from people who have experienced some of the challenges young people across Wales face today.
