Job description

Groundwork London has secured contracts to deliver the Youth Jobs Guarantee in Central and North London.

Over the next 18 months, we’ll place around 1,000 young people who have been unemployed long term into waged placements and contribute to their wages. We’re looking for three roles to join the team:

🔹 Employer Liaison Officer Work with employers to secure the placements our young people will join, and support employers to create roles that participants can secure and thrive in.

🔹 Employment Advisor Support young people referred by Jobcentre Plus into their waged placements, then throughout the 6-month placement and into sustainable employment.

🔹 Senior Employment Advisor Do the same work as an Employment Advisor, plus support the wider team of advisors day to day and help the Programme Manager liaise with Jobcentre Plus. All three roles are 37.5 hours a week on a 2-year fixed-term contract, based at Groundwork offices and locations across London.

⏰ Applications close at midday on Monday 2nd November 2026. We encourage early applications, as interviews will take place during the recruitment period once there are enough applicants. Find out more and apply here: click here for the full details and how to apply!
