Job opportunity at Mentoring Plus - Trustee to become Treasurer Previous Job Next Job Award-winning youth charity Mentoring Plus is seeking one or more new Trustees to join its Board, in advance of existing members coming to the end of their maximum nine-year tenure. Since 1998 Mentoring Plus has been supporting children and young people struggling with education, family and emotional wellbeing. Every week our trained volunteer mentors, skilled professionals and youth workers reach over 150 young people across our region, offering time and space to get out of the house, pursue positive interests and reflect on the issues affecting them. Young people tell us they feel happier, safer, more able to cope in the classroom and more confident about the future. Families appreciate better home relationships and direct support with school and accessing adult services. Schools report that students engage better with education, are more resilient and enjoy improved relationships, and staff are more able to understand individual needs and work alongside families to support them. Based in Bath and working across Bath & NE Somerset and the surrounding region, Mentoring Plus has trebled in size in the last ten years and now has 22 staff and a turnover over £800,000. It holds two local authority commissions for mentoring services and has a paid service project as part of a diversified funding strategy. Mentoring Plus has the opportunity to respond to growing need and make even more difference, and also the challenge of a donor environment affected by the cost of living and competition for funds. As we drive forward, we’re looking for Trustees who feel aligned to our work and who are able to offer time, knowledge and compassionate challenge across its whole operation. We currently seek a Trustee with financial knowhow able to shadow our existing Treasurer with a view to assuming this role when the current officer reaches the end of their maximum tenure.

We would also welcome applications from individuals experienced in running a small/medium sized enterprise, ideally within the charity sector, and any other relevant knowledge and experience. Minoritised and marginalised communities are currently under-represented on our Board, and we welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds to represent our diverse service users. Our Trustees devolve day to day management of the organisation to the executive team, but aim to offer scrutiny, insight and constructive contribution to shape strategy and respond to opportunities. As a community charity, we rely on contacts and introductions to potential supporters, volunteers or businesses in our region and beyond, so this is a key requirement of Board members. We also ask Trustees to help with hosting events connecting with our community and raising funds from time to time. All new Trustees have a careful induction process to ensure they feel able to access information and contribute to discussions. The Board meets for about two hours at least every two months, in person or online, and corresponds with the executive team regularly in between. Pre-agreed expenses can be claimed. Safer Recruitment procedures will be followed including an enhanced DBS check and employment references taken and verified. Mentoring Plus is committed to maximising inclusion irrespective of age, gender identity, sexuality, ethnicity, background, life experiences, disabilities, learning difficulties, lifestyle, beliefs etc, provided that individuals are able to meet the requirements of the role with appropriate support.

Job opportunity at Mentoring Plus - Senior Practitioner - Professional Mentoring Previous Job Next Job Are you a confident professional working with young people and seeking a more senior, impactful role? Do you see the support young people need when they face difficulties in education, at home or with mental wellbeing, and want to be part of the solution? Due to staff relocation, youth charity Mentoring Plus has a rare opportunity to join its highly regarded team of professional practitioners, leading one of its core projects. c.30 hours per week permanent Termtime plus (c.41 weeks per year) Occasional evening / weekend work in support of charity (TOIL offered). Partly hybrid, but regular office-based work required (Bath based, free parking available). Salary: From £30k FTE dependent on experience + pension Our Professional Mentoring service takes inspiration from our award-winning 1-1 community volunteer mentoring project, providing mentoring to young people with more complex needs and circumstances. For children and young people, the experience is the same: a trusted, positive adult role model offering an engaging weekly mentoring session following their positive interests. It’s a safe space to talk, an opportunity to get out of the house, to try new things and build confidence and self-esteem. We build trusting relationships over time, and see the positive changes in young people who we help to stay safe, engage with opportunities and find their own unique path forward. The only difference is that these are young people who need a higher level of support than we would ask of a volunteer. They’re living with more difficult challenges, often with significant mental wellbeing issues causing low school attendance. Mentoring sessions are mostly during the school day, and may form part of an alternative timetable. Interventions are at least 14 weeks and many last a year or longer, dependent upon need and funding. As Senior Practitioner of Professional Mentoring, you’ll lead a small team of practitioners, mentors and office staff to make this support a reality for 30-40 mentees at any one time. You’ll work directly with young people, but the success of this role will be based on your ability to offer positive supervision to your adult professionals and freelance mentors. Building strong relationships with referring organisations while also attracting new professional mentors, you’ll ensure the right young people are being reached and the support they receive is safe, engaging, effective and individualised for each mentee. As you’d expect, this work sometimes involves significant complexities and safeguarding concerns. You’ll need a sound knowledge of these to support your team, and to engage with regular supervision with our Head of Practice and a clinical supervisor to discuss approaches and support your own wellbeing. Within this project, schools also contract with us to provide an in-school mentor 1-2 days per week, and other statutory bodies have arrangements to refer. With admin support, you’re responsible for providing accurate information for charging mentoring fees, often from a mentee’s EHCP or similar, and impact monitoring data. You’ll need a level of organisation and attention to detail, and to enjoy the reward of maximising this project’s reputation and reach for the benefit of children and young people. We’re looking for someone energetic and committed, with at least 2 years’ relevant experience. We deliver professional mentoring across BathNES and the surrounding region, including to young people experiencing rural isolation, so driving and reliable access to a car are essential (mileage paid). Our Bath-based HQ offers a friendly and informal workplace where staff supervision, in-house, 1-1 clinical and group-based, are central to our practice, and colleagues offer positive co-support. This is a termtime-plus role (39 weeks plus 2 weeks in school holidays across the year). Hours and days can be flexible and some hybrid working is fine (not 100% remote). We commit an annual budget to CPD and aim to allow every staff member to follow their own practice interests, often leading to opportunities for professional development.
