Education Worker

We are looking for people who will thrive in a fast paced, rewarding role helping to change the lives of young people. We have vacancies in our centres in Bridlington, Bradford and Hull. 

We believe that our Graduate Scheme is one of the most exciting in the charity sector. We provide exceptional training and experience, and the opportunity to work with young people and colleagues who will challenge and inspire you.

IntoUniversity is an award winning charity that runs local learning centres in the heart of communities where the young people we support live.

Our centres provide an innovative education programme which includes: practical learning support, motivational and confidence-building activities for children and young people aged 7-18.

Our aim is to inspire students from the least advantaged neighbourhoods to broaden their horizons and achieve their full potential.

As the UK’s leading university access organisation, our staff team is helping thousands of young people each year. We currently have forty one centres and extension projects across England and Scotland. We have a number of new centres planned for 2023 to 2024, and ambitious plans to scale up our provision further over the coming years.

If you believe that all young people deserve the chance to develop their talents regardless of their background and want to play a part in helping them succeed, then we would be delighted to hear from you.

As a charity with social mobility as its core objective, IntoUniversity is wholly committed to equality of opportunity. We work with children and young people from a diverse range of backgrounds, and we believe that our staff team should be similarly diverse and representative.

The more inclusive we are, the better our work will be, and we recognise that we have much more to do in this regard. We are committed to building a culture where students, staff and volunteers are valued for the unique people they are.

We therefore encourage applications from candidates from as wide a range as possible of ethnic, cultural and social backgrounds. In particular, we actively and warmly welcome applications from Black, Asian and minority ethnic candidates, male candidates and candidates with a disability as they are currently under-represented within IntoUniversity.
