What We’re Looking For

• Passion: A deep commitment to making a difference in students' lives.
• Confidence: The ability to work effectively with young people who display challenging behaviours and struggle to manage their emotions.
• Skills: Experience with de-escalation techniques and working with challenging behaviours, whether with children or adults, is highly valued.

This role is available immediately for the right person. If you're ready to take a rewarding step in your career and become a positive influence on young lives, we’d love to hear from you.
