We're seeking a passionate and driven individual to join our Fundraising Team as a part-time Events Assistant. This new role is critical to expanding NHYC's events programme, attracting new supporters, and enhancing our fundraising efforts with exciting activities for our existing funders to stay connected to our work. 

Joining New Horizon Youth Centre as an Events Assistant means not only stepping into a role of significant impact but also becoming part of an energetic organisation deeply rooted in long-term, strong relationships with our funders. Last year, we surpassed expectations by raising £4 million with just three members of staff, showcasing our dedication and effectiveness in fundraising. This year, our sights are set even higher, with a target of £4.7 million. 

Working from our bustling day centre, you'll be at the heart of our operations, staying connected to the profound impact of our organisation firsthand. This closeness to our frontline services ensures that you'll witness the tangible difference your fundraising efforts make in the lives of young people every day, making New Horizon Youth Centre an exceptional place to fundraise. 

If you're seeking not just a job but a deeply fulfilling experience where your work directly transforms lives, where you'll forge lasting connections with funders, colleagues, and the young people we support, then New Horizon Youth Centre is for you.

Join us in making a difference and shape a brighter future for the young people experiencing homelessness in London.

New Horizon Youth Centre has been commissioned by the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC) as part of an Alliance with Safer London, St Giles Trust and the Anna Freud Centre to deliver on their Children and Young People’s Violence and Exploitation and Reduction support service. The commission will run from June 2024 for three years. As part of this, an additional service will be set up within the NHYC Youth Justice team specifically to deliver on the Alliance contract. This will include a team of Housing Caseworkers who will carry out assessments and advocacy work with young people under 25 who are fleeing violence and exploitation, in order to move them on successfully into both emergency and long-term housing options. You should be passionate about working with this client group, able to manage a fast-moving caseload, and committed to working collaboratively with a team across multiple services.

We are seeking a Therapeutic Practitioner to join our newly established Health Team. This specialist role will enhance our current provision and improve the quality and breadth of mental health support available to young people. The successful candidate will work within the Health Team, in collaboration with our partner organisation Camden & Islington Young People's Service, to deliver 1:1 emotional and practical support, assist in our drop-in service, and facilitate workshops for all young people experiencing homelessness.

Additionally, you will focus on developing their thinking and practical skills, as well as coping and de-escalation strategies. Your work will aim to improve relationships among young people within the day centre, and continue to promote trauma informed working practices across New Horizon, so that all of our services are designed to address the psychological and emotional needs of young people who are unsafe or facing homelessness.
