Outreach Case Worker (Full-Time or Part-Time)  

Help Young People Take Their First Steps Towards a Brighter Future  

Do you believe in second chances, fresh starts, and the power of encouragement?  

At King’s Reach, we walk alongside young people who feel left behind. Our Reach Out programme supports children and teenagers who are unable to attend school due to anxiety, trauma, or complex needs.  

About Us  

King’s Reach is a charity with over 20 years of experience supporting young people who others often find hard to reach. As a Christian Ethos charity our work is built on hope, love, and practical transformation. At the heart of our work is our Future Me programme—a unique approach that helps young people grow in confidence, gain life skills, and move towards independence.  

The Role  

As a Reach Out Coach, you’ll support young people in their homes or communities through tailored one-to-one sessions. You’ll:  

• Deliver weekly Future Me coaching sessions to build confidence, independence, and life skills  

• Support young people to reconnect with trusted adults, engage in learning, and feel part of a community  

• Work closely with families, education providers, and professionals to support each young person’s progress  

• Create simple, flexible plans that help students move forward at their own pace  

• Help reduce feelings of isolation and increase motivation to re-engage with education, training, or work  

• Keep accurate records, track progress, and advocate for the young person’s needs  

• Be a consistent, calm and reliable presence in their lives—someone who doesn’t give up  

We’re Looking For Someone Who:  

• Can build trust with young people who may have experienced rejection or setbacks  

• Is patient, calm, and able to listen without judgement  

• Believes every young person has potential  

• Has experience working with young people (aged 11–18) in education, youth work, social care, or similar settings  

• Can work flexibly and travel around Kent  

• Has strong communication, organisation, and teamwork skills  

• Understands safeguarding and the importance of keeping young people safe  

• Is resilient and motivated by making a real difference  

What You’ll Get:  

• A role where your support genuinely changes lives  

• Ongoing training and professional development  

• A caring, values-led team that supports and encourages one another  

• A chance to be part of something bigger—giving young people time to heal, grow, and build a better future  

• Flexible working options (full-time and part-time available)  

If you’re interested in the role and would like an informal conversation before applying, feel free to get in touch with our Reach Out Manager, Nancy Tugwell, to arrange a suitable time to chat. Email: nancy.tugwell@kingsreach.org.uk
