Position Description : 2019 Oct - Graphical PD Programs Manager NSW

Being young is not without its struggles. Today’s world is pretty complex and young people can experience a bunch of challenges that adults might not be able to relate to. One of the biggest hurdles is just having the confidence and support to be who they want to be.

 

There are currently over 4 million young people living in Australia, and Reach works with over 40,000 of them a year. We have over 250 of them working for us; designing and delivering workshops in schools and the community. Our workshops are 100% youth-led, from design through to delivery, and the community we create out of these workshops is one that allows for deeper connection, a sense of belonging, and the dispelling of judgements. A preventative, instead of having to focus on symptoms in adult life.

 

OUR VISION

Generations of confident, self-aware and passionate young people shaping the world.

WHO ARE THE CREW?

 

The Reach Crew is a group of young people who are committed to creating, designing, and delivering experiences for other young people to learn more about themselves, connect with others and be their best selves. The Reach Crew consists of both volunteers and casual employees.

You are and experienced and passionate professional who will manage and coordinate the NSW programs portfolio. You will be responsible for developing school and community partnerships and for managing Reach community and education programs in Sydney and regional areas of NSW. You will also manage Reach’s young crew and facilitators and coordinate their design, delivery and review of education and community programs.

  2. Minimum 5 years’ experience in working with young people; a sound awareness of the experiences that young people face and systems that support them.
