We are looking for a Companion Training and Development Coach who has compassion combined with strong motivational skills. The Companion Training and Development Coach will assist Companions in acquiring the skills they want and need to achieve their aspirations and potential, so they can live and work in the Emmaus community, develop life skills and realise their full potential to move on from the Community if and when they are ready.
Successful applicants will be part of the Community Support team, led by the Community Manager and will have key responsibilities within that team. This post relates specifically to the training and development of Companions within the Community’s social enterprises and also looking beyond the Community. There will be a focus also on those planning to move-on to live independently.
So, if you have good communication skills, the ability to handle complex situations, experience of training and supporting people with a variety needs and have a positive “can do” attitude we would love to hear from you. You will be joining a friendly and enthusiastic team who are passionate about what they do. We would particularly welcome applications from candidates with experience of trauma informed practice, asset-based approaches, quality assurance frameworks or from a background of supporting vulnerable adults into work, job coaching and training.
