We are looking for an enthusiastic individual to support young people aged 16-24 years.  You will be joining a team of friendly coaches that support each young person to get back On Track, giving the advice and help the individual needs to make the most of the things they are good at.

On Track is a project to clear barriers to work for young people in Norfolk who have multiple and complex needs. The project helps to support young people aged 16-24 to get into education, training or employment.  On Track is different because it is tailored to meet the needs of the individual young person.  On Track is completely free.

Young people who participate in the project receive extensive tailor-made coaching, mentoring and guidance to help them to fulfil their career goals, as well as practical support to break down the barriers to achieving these goals, such as help with childcare, transport or equipment to start a college course or job.

A partnership led by The Matthew Project with Nansa, GYROS, Princes Trust and YMCA.  On Track is funded by the National Lottery through the Community Fund and the European Social Fund
