• A strong commitment to supporting and advocating for LGBTQ+ young people.
• Understanding of issues affecting LGBTQ+ communities and young people's wellbeing.
• Experience of building trusted relationships and delivering engaging youth work activities.

We particularly welcome applications from members of the LGBTQ+ community, whose lived experience and insight can help strengthen the support we provide to young people.
