Our youth employment team

Rhys

Hi, I’m passionate about helping people find the right employment, training, or academic pathway going forward. I believe by taking a person-centred approach when mentoring, this can help people identify their own strengths so they can meet their desired goals.

My role as a mentor involves ensuring that young people receive the guidance they need, to enable them to move forward with accessing employment, training or education.

This is achieved through engagement, individualised support and providing information about opportunities that are available. I encourage and empower each young person to pursue their ambitions and achieve in their chosen career path.

I previously worked in further education, supporting students and apprentices. Advising them how to access appropriate progression routes, and encouraging and motivating them to persist when they faced challenges and barriers.
