SEN Job Coach
Posted on May 16, 2026 by CV-Library
Mildmay, Greater London, United Kingdom
Not-for-Profit
Immediate Start
£30k - £30k Annual
Full-Time
Would you like to help young people take their first big step into work? This is a fantastic opportunity to join a project that supports 16–24-year-olds with learning disabilities and autism, giving them the skills, confidence, and guidance they need to move into meaningful employment.
We are recruiting for a permanent Job Coach to be based primarily around the Harrow area, with the ultimate flexibility to also cover Hackney via public transport as part of a split territory schedule.
The programme combines classroom learning with hands-on support. It has a strong track record, with around 70% of participants going on to secure paid jobs. As a Job Coach, you will work closely with a small group of young people with an EHCP, helping them prepare for and succeed in the workplace.
Day-to-day, that will involve:
Approaching local employers to arrange supported work experience placements.
Helping employers put the right adjustments in place, and giving advice on how to best support a young person with a neurodiverse profile.
Supporting the young person with their role, tasks, and day-to-day workplace skills.
Providing travel training so they can confidently get to and from work.
Keeping families regularly updated and involved.
This is a rewarding role where you will see the direct impact of your work.
About You:
You must be comfortable with regional travel across London boroughs (Harrow and Hackney) via public transport as required.
You will bring an understanding of the challenges faced by neurodiverse young people and the confidence to build relationships with employers.
Experience in roles such as Employment Advisor, Job Coach, Careers Advisor, Teaching Assistant, Recruitment Consultant, Youth Support Worker, or Employer Engagement Consultant would be useful, but above all, what matters is your ability to engage, encourage, and support young people into work.
How to Apply: Please apply via this advert. All applications will be reviewed. If you have not heard back within 72 hours, you can also get in touch via the “Send Us a Message” form on the Red 5 People website and a member of the team will respond.
For an informal chat about the role, call the office and ask for James (contact details are on the Red 5 People website)
