Would you like to be part of an award-winning Charity that helps improve the lives of more than 300,000 individuals each year?

If so, this role could be the perfect fit for you.

CXK is looking for two
Engagement & Employability Coaches to drive our programmes across East and Central Kent.

As an Engagement & Employability Coach, you'll use your creativity and mentoring skills to provide tailored support to individuals in various community settings, preparing them for the workforce or further education.

Whether through one-on-one sessions or group activities, you'll foster personal, social, and employability skills, equipping beneficiaries with the tools they need to move into education, training, an apprenticeship, or sustained employment.


Your role will extend beyond direct beneficiary support; you'll collaborate closely with partner organisations, ensuring seamless referrals and continued progress for our beneficiaries post-programme.

  • Support work placements and other community opportunities and be confident working in detached and outreach settings.
  • Advocate for young people and adults, working to support them and their families to address barriers to progression with sensitivity and confidentiality.


To be successful in this role, you will have experience of successfully planning, delivering, and evaluating programmes for young people or adults.

You will have experience of delivering programmes with embedded numeracy/literacy and working with individuals from diverse backgrounds and with different needs.

An understanding of the factors that affect young people and adults' lives and experience of supporting them to overcome barriers are also essential.


In return for your skills and experience, you'll receive the following benefits:

  • An annual salary of £24,386
  • £29,732 pro rata
days holiday, plus bank holidays pro rata

  • Defined contribution pension scheme (matched by CXK up to 10% depending on length of service)

  • Generous sick leave benefits
