What We''re Looking For

• Resilient, can-do people who can stay calm under pressure
• Those who can travel reliably to Grantham, Newark or surrounding areas
• An Enhanced DBS (or willingness to apply)

We welcome applicants from a range of backgrounds, including:

• Sports coaches
• Youth workers or mentors
• Residential support staff
• Teaching assistants or support workers
• Psychology, Criminology, Sports Science or Education graduates
• Ex-forces or public services backgrounds

Why Join an Alternative Provision?

• A chance to use your skills to change young people''s lives
