Are you passionate about helping young people overcome barriers and achieve their full potential? Join the Inspire2 Achieve team within MTCBC Youth Service and make a real difference to the lives of young people across Merthyr Tydfil.

If you want a career where you can see the positive impact of your work every day and be part of a team that is making a difference across the community, we'd love to hear from you.
Based within the Youth Service/Prevention team, this role offers the opportunity to shape young people's futures while working in a collaborative environment that values learning, aspiration, teamwork and continuous improvement.
