PTS Coach and Contract Manager Location: Northamptonshire/London/Remote Hybrid 37 hours - £29,000 pa Flexible working hours can be considered This is no ordinary manager role, instead, as a Person-led, Transitional and Strength-based coach and contract manager, you will: Manage, monitor and report on some exciting and diverse contracts including social prescribing, hospital to home and work within supported housing Support a team of coaches who walk alongside people experiencing tough times, listening, identifying system barriers and working to overcome them. Unleash your inner activist and contribute to challenging and changing systems around homelessness, substance use, social care, mental health and criminal justice.

About Mayday Mayday is an organisation with a network of passionate social activists working to bring about systemic change, whilst offering people going through tough times such as homelessness, leaving care, coming out of prison or experiencing emotional trauma, person-led and strength-based support through its PTS Response. The Role This is an opportunity for someone who understands that in the world today, the problem is not people with 'complex needs' but a broken system. A system that is failing to treat people as people. A system that traps and institutionalises people. With a keen eye for detail, a natural ability to be organised, you will bring your analytical skills, to not just support the provision of person-led work, but to monitor, analyse and report on a number of contracts through the lens of deep listening, learning and positive challenge. As a PTS coach manager, you will have a deep understanding of power dynamics and the need to create an environment where coaches have the freedom and autonomy to work to the agenda of the people they walk alongside, and not just to tick the boxes of contracts. This role is not for the faint hearted, it is for someone with a passion for social justice, and the energy and determination to make systems work for people going through tough times. Mayday is looking for someone who believes in people; a person who is comfortable supporting coaches who walk alongside someone to identify and overcome barriers, to connect people with a positive community network and friendships, build on their strengths and achieve the future they want. Applications close: Wednesday 17th November. An online interactive group session will take place on Monday 22nd November, followed by formal individual interviews on Tuesday 23rd November.
