As NCS Team Leader you are required to lead a summer team of 15 NCS participants through a variety of activities including residential stays and a social action programme. You will also be involved in communicating with your team from their signup stage through to their graduation.

As Team Leader you are responsible for the day to day operations and supporting the team to execute their roles. You will work very closely with internal and external colleagues to develop and coordinate educational activities.  You will monitor and evaluate projects and ensure targets and achievements are met.

The project will involve attending keeping warm activities, and 2 days training prior to the main programme. The programme will run for 4 weeks over the summer which will involve two 5 days residential and a further 5 days planning the social action project.  This will be followed by a commitment to carry out 35 hours further student contact delivering the social action project in the last week followed by a graduation ceremony later on in the year.

We particularly welcome applicants who have a First Aid at Work qualification, or other recognised First Aid certification.  A full driving licence, with access to a car suitable for use on business purposes is desirable but not essential.
