About The Role

The Youth Mentor will support young people (under the age of 18) vulnerable to becoming involved with crime and anti-social behaviour. Through the delivery of sessions, workshops and targeted 1-2-1 interventions, this crucial role will work in partnership with local police and improve engagement in Blackburn with Darwen (and the surrounding areas where applicable).

Work alongside partners such as local secondary schools, Lancashire Constabulary, Blackburn with Darwen Youth Offending Team and others to identify and work with young people involved in, or at risk of involvement in offending behaviour.

Build trusted relationships with young people to promote personal development, wellbeing gains and reduce their experience of offending and antisocial behaviour.

Maintain/strengthen existing or new professional relationships with stakeholders, developing strong referral pathways.

Ensure all necessary participant details are recorded and used to inform risk management.

Mentor to provide wrap around support, including signposting to other agencies/services where required.

Plan and deliver a range of activities to engage clients and support a positive change in behaviour.

Share best practice/developments with stakeholders when required to shape and benefit programme delivery.

Coordinate the monitoring and evaluation of the project and compile evidence on the progress of individuals to report back to key funders.

Provide progress reports where relevant (e.g. internally to senior management and/or Board and externally to funders).

Support the delivery of other projects and work with the Trust’s Management Team to identify other opportunities and projects where duties may overlap.

Be a flexible member of the Blackburn Rovers Community Trust team and when requested, assist in the delivery of other projects and activities including evenings and weekends.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
