Be the spark that helps young people discover their potential.

Are you an experienced youth coach or mentor with a deep commitment to helping young people succeed? This is your opportunity to join a proven Youth, Family and Community Connections (YFCC) youth employment program, Fit For Work (FFW) designed to change lives and futures.

About the Program

FFW works with local Workforce Australia and DES providers in the Launceston region to identify young jobseekers (aged between 15 and 25 years) who need additional supports to enter the workforce. The FFW Youth Coach works intensively with participants for 6 to 12 months to foster positive health and wellbeing practices, build relationships and social connections, and encourage participation in soft employment skills training. The project aims to support participants to rebuild their health, confidence and lost social capital, so they are more likely to secure meaningful employment and become independent of welfare support.

This is a chance to work in a values-driven Organisation that focuses on safety, respect, inclusion, and innovation, and believes every young person has the ability to achieve their goals.

About the Role

As a Youth Coach, you will:

Provide tailored coaching, case coordination, and career guidance

Deliver engaging soft skills workshops to boost work readiness

Partner with schools, employers, and community organisations

Track progress, celebrate achievements, and help shape the program's success

What You'll Bring

Qualifications: Minimum Certificate IV in a relevant field

Experience: Working with young people from diverse backgrounds, ideally in youth work and/or employment services

Skills: Case management and coordination and strong networks with schools, employers, and community groups

Values: Passion for youth empowerment, inclusivity, and positive change

Additional requirements: Current Driver's Licence, National Police Check, Working with Vulnerable People Registration, ability to complete a pre-employment medical.

Why Join Us?

$44.58 per hour

Motor vehicle

Salary packaging benefits

Supportive, inclusive team culture

Ongoing professional development & supervision

The chance to be part of a program that changes the way youth services are delivered in our community
