We are excited to be recruiting for an energetic and engaging practitioner to help develop, coordinate and deliver a range of sport, physical activity and movement based wellbeing programmes in partnership with providers across Bristol and South Glos.
The successful candidate will have a strong personal interest and regular practice in sport with considerable experience working with young people and mental health. You will be able to critically engage with issues relating to mental health, understanding it within a social and political context and developing programmes that respond accordingly.
You will be excellent at building working relationships with other providers and will be able to create and deliver engaging, thoughtful workshops for groups of young people from disadvantaged backgrounds that face barriers to accessing mental health services.
This role is specifically designed to work with young people from largely underrepresented demographics in the world of Mental Health support. With this in mind, we would strongly encourage those with lived experience to apply.

A Willingness to Work with Difference
At OTR, whatever your role or professional background, you will be expected to work in a way that is anti-oppressive and inclusive. A key focus for OTR is to develop an organisation that is inclusive for all, but we do not claim to be experts in this. We are committed to continuous learning and improvement in these areas and invite you to join us on this journey.
OTR recognises the benefits to individual practice and organisational credibility of having a diverse community of staff and volunteers and to this end is continually working towards building and maintaining an environment which values and pursues diversity accordingly.
We recognise that tackling systemic inequality, prejudice, racism and oppressive practice requires each of us to actively engage, self-examine and make changes where necessary, in order to improve access and equitable experience for all in society and all of those who come through our doors at OTR.
