Job Summary

If you are passionate about transforming the lives of young people then we want to hear from you.

We are looking for someone who is flexible, adaptable and great with young people to join us as a Progress Coach.

You will be working with support teams and curriculum to provide wrap‑around support. If you enjoy communicating in groups and with individuals helping them develop their resilience and personal skills then this is the role for you!

We are committed to promoting the Welsh language; applications in Welsh are welcome. Applications submitted in Welsh will not be treated less favourably than applications submitted in English, and all application forms, explanatory material, information about the interview process and assessment methods and job descriptions are available in Welsh.

This role is based at our Yale Site!

Successful candidates will undergo a DBS check.

Equality, Diversity & Safeguarding

Coleg Cambria is a ‘Disability Confident’ Employer. The promotion of Equality and Diversity is an essential part of the work we do and we are committed to having a diverse staff group.

Coleg Cambria is committed to safeguarding all learners, and we expect every member of staff to share this commitment.

Regulated Activity and DBS

This role is covered by the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order and is classed as regulated activity. It therefore requires an Enhanced DBS with Barred List check, and applicants must disclose all cautions and convictions, including spent ones. It is an offence to apply if you are barred from working with children. Disclosure will not automatically prevent employment; a risk assessment will be carried out and we may deem some convictions/cautions as unsuitable to work with children.

Depending on the position, successful candidates may also need to register with the Education Workforce Council.

Roles are normally advertised with a salary range. If you are offered a role at the college, relevant experience will be taken into consideration to determine your starting salary.

Please be aware that Coleg Cambria reserves the right to close our vacancies earlier than the listed date if we have received a high level of applications. We would recommend that if you wish to be considered you complete the application as promptly as possible.
