**A bit about you**

You’re passionate about tackling youth unemployment and understand the need to deliver tailored and customised support. You are a people person, and you LOVE building relationships. You have experience mentoring and supporting young people, working with employers and achieving 12/26 week outcome targets Because you’ve worked in employment services or training, you can hit the ground running

You know not every day will be the same, you can switch from meeting with employers, to connecting with young people in the blink of an eye. Changing lives is your passion but you still embrace rolling up your sleeves and mucking in to get the job done. You’re full of creative ways to meet people where they are at and believe that engagement shouldn’t be a one size fits all model. You always see the person, not just their immediate situation because you understand that everyone has different needs, and that is okay.
