Thank you for your interest in career opportunities with Colchester United Community Sports Trust. At present we have the following opportunities.
Young Advocate
Young Advocate – £50 per day plus expenses - The successful candidate will be required for ten days between January 2010 and July 2010
Do you want to help us create a world where young people are listened to?
Do you want to have a job where you can make a real difference and no one will think you’re too young or you haven’t got the right experience?
Fancy a job where your employer is as interested in your personal development as they are in the work you do?
Role Description:
We are recruiting for young people between 18-25 years old looking for a challenge... our Future Leaders programme is seeking Young Advocates who would enjoy working in organisations that value a young person’s ideas and opinions.
Purpose of the Job:
Lots of organisations around the country care what young people think of them and want to involve them in all aspects of what they do. Changemakers believe the most effective way for an organisation to listen to and involve young people is to employ a Young Advocate (you!) for 6 months and support them to advocate Youth Participation within their organisation. This means that you will decide with the organisation what your work will look like and then you complete a project to help the organisation improve its practice and policy regarding young people.
