Are you ready to be a part of something impactful?


The Post-16 Participation Team is at the heart of Educational Effectiveness services, driving forward Surrey County Council's statutory commitments under the Raising Participation Age legislation.

We're now on the lookout for a dynamic individual to join us in our mission.


As our team expands, we're seeking a motivated and enthusiastic individual to step into the role of a Transition Support Officer.

In this role, you will offer key support to the Year 11-12 Transition and Post-16 NEET Teams.

These teams work to provide targeted assistance to young individuals who are not in employment, education, or training (NEET), or are at risk of heading that way.


What you'll do


As a Transition Support Officer you'll work closely with our team of Personal Coaches, providing crucial assistance in delivering personalised guidance to young people in pursuit of education, employment, or training opportunities.

Your journey will involve a mix of hands-on, face to face engagement and a range of administrative responsibilities.


Here are the qualities, skills and experience we are looking for in our Transition Support Officer:

  • Exceptional communication skills that empower you to connect with both team members and young individuals
  • A knack for creative problemsolving that drives positive outcomes
  • Excellent organisational and time management skills
  • Flexibility to work in a range of locations across the County as required
  • Prior experience in an administrative capacity that highlights your adaptability and capability

Why choose us
This isn't just another job; it's an opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of young people.

As a Transition Support Officer, you'll not only expand your understanding of the further education and training landscape but also gain hands-on experience in supporting vulnerable young people.


At Surrey, our values and behaviours are just as important as our skills and abilities. They shape who we are as an organisation. Find out more about the values
we follow.
