As an organisation, we wanted to give those unemployed a potentially life changing opportunity to start a career in their industry which is why we created a variety of interesting and fulfilling roles that will help develop a wide range of skills and experience.
We have created jobs across the organisation, from roles working within our Housing, Youth & Play, The Estate (Patterdale) to our back office support such as HR, IT and Marketing. Providing opportunities for all, regardless of their interests and career goals.
As part of our placements, we aim to provide job related training, tips on CV writing and training on various topics such as Health & Safety, Fire Safety, Stress Management, Resilience and more!
If you want to hear more about our Kickstart roles, please email hr@ymcanorthtyneside.org or contact your local job centre.
