Job overview
We are collaborating with the National Citizen Service (NCS) to provide year 11 pupils in Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire with this fantastic, character building and skill development opportunity. This is an exceptional opportunity for applicants to assume a high level of responsibility and gain significant experience with a nationally recognized youth development programme. You’ll make a huge difference to the lives of young people in Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire and will develop a diverse skillset which will contribute to your overall profile.
The NCS programme is split into three phases. Phase 1 is a five day residential experience at an outdoor adventure centre which is comprised of team building activities and physical challenges. Phase 2 is another week long residential where young people live in University halls of residence and take part in a wide range of structured skill and personal development sessions designed to help them understand more about their local community, social issues, project planning, fundraising, marketing and campaigning. During the last week (phase 3) students will design and deliver their very own social action project to address and make a difference to an area of need within their local community.
We are looking to recruit inspirational and ambitious people to the above listed positions and have four waves running this summer (Mon-Fri only). Candidates are encouraged to be available for more than one wave if possible.
Wave 1: Monday 24th June – Friday 12th July 2019

Wave 3: Monday 22nd July – Friday 9th August 2019
