We are looking to recruit a Job Coach for an immediate start.
This will be a fixed term contract working 30 hours per week. Your hours of attendance will be 8.30am to 3pm each day, Monday to Friday with a 30 minute (unpaid) lunch break included. You will work 5 days per week, 6 hours per day.
This is a fixed term contract, and will run to the 31st July 2025. Your contract is annualised which means you are paid through the half terms including Easter.
The salary for this contract is £13,440.00 (the full time salary is equivalent to £27,500.00). Your hourly rate is £16.00.
You will be supporting a student who will be working with a local employer. You will meet the student at the employer each morning and they will be collected each afternoon, at the end of the working day.
The successful candidate will have experience of working in a similar role. You will have a passion for working with children with SEN and helping them overcome their barriers to be the best that they can be. You will have a tolerance and understanding to nurture the student so they can work to their strengths and develop those areas where they need additional support. You will have the ability to work with autonomy in a professional manner at all times. You will be reliable and punctual - the student will always depend on you for this. You will have an understanding of the complexities of working with SEN pupils and how you have to adapt your approach to provide the very best support possible.
The role of the job coach is almost a hybrid of an SEN teaching assistant and learning mentor.
This is a very exciting, rewarding and fulfilling role.
You must have an up to date (on the Update Service) and clear DBS. If you do not have a DBS, we can assist you with securing one.
