Tradewind Recruitment • Permanent • Lancashire, United Kingdom • 4h ago

Become a Learning Mentor in Rochdale with Tradewind

Tradewind Recruitment is hiring Learning Mentors for a Pupil Referral Unit (PRU) in Rochdale, working with teenagers aged who are in care or come from disruptive home environments.

Responsibilities

Provide one to one and small group support to students with social, emotional, and mental health (SEMH) needs.
Offer consistent mentoring, intervention, and emotional guidance.
Support teenagers in building self esteem, focus, and resilience.
Be a positive, trusted adult role model in their day to day school life.
Work as part of a close knit team committed to long term change.

Due to the complex SEMH needs of the students, consistency is absolutely vital. Interruptions or gaps in support can severely impact a young person's progress and, in some cases, have been linked to serious declines in mental health or crisis situations. We are therefore looking for individuals who are committed, reliable, and understand the importance of providing steady, ongoing support for vulnerable young people.

Working Hours

Monday to Thursday: 8:30am - 3:15pm
Friday: 8:30am - 1:45pm

These are full time, temporary roles with a strong chance of becoming permanent. Please note: These roles cannot be offered part time.

Ideal Background

Experience working with teenagers in schools, community groups, youth projects, or performing arts settings.
A calm and supportive approach to behaviour and emotional needs.
Strong listening skills, patience, and emotional intelligence.
An understanding of trauma, attachment issues, or SEMH challenges.
TA qualifications are helpful but not essential - full training is provided.

Benefits

Competitive daily pay.
Access to 2,500+ free CPD courses (including mental health and behaviour support).
Personal interview coaching and job preparation.
Local, in house payroll (no umbrella companies).
Holiday pay options.
Referral bonuses.
Free networking and social events.
