We also serve the adult community and provide signposting and links to city-wide services.

The Place is an exciting development in the city led by strong collaboration with local schools, employers and city-wide partners. The centre has a strong governance structure that puts community members at its core and involves leadership from local schools and colleagues across the universities, City of York council, York Cares, cultural organisations and local businesses.

Role

The Place is a community initiative, with people at the heart of it.

We are looking for someone who is dedicated to opening opportunities and social equality. Crucially, you will have robust administrative experience, be highly organised and comfortable working with young people, their families and community and other external stakeholders.
