Shaping The Future Of 14–24 Scouting In NHDS

We’re looking for our next 14–24 Team Lead

Do you believe in the potential of young people? Are you passionate about adventure, opportunity and helping others grow in confidence and gain skills for life?

North Hambleton District Scouts is looking for a supportive, enthusiastic and forward-thinking 14–24 Team Lead to help shape the future of our Explorer Scout and Scout Network provision.

Why this role matters

The 14–24 programme is where young people take the lead in their Scouting journey. It’s a time when confidence grows, leadership develops and skills for life are put into action.

From expeditions and international opportunities to top awards, permits, volunteering and youth-shaped decision-making, this stage of Scouting has a lasting impact.

As 14–24 Team Lead, you’ll help to:

  • Support and inspire adult volunteers across Explorer Scouts and Scout Network
  • Enable young people to shape their own programme, adventures and experiences
  • Create opportunities for permits, top awards and leadership development
  • Champion an inclusive, ambitious and youth-shaped approach
  • Contribute to a district team focused on growth, quality and positive impact

You’ll be part of a supportive District team and a community of volunteers who are passionate about helping young people gain skills for life.

Who we’re looking for

You don’t need previous experience in a similar role or even within Scouts, what matters most is that you:

  • Enjoy working with and supporting other adults
  • Believe in young people and their ability to succeed
  • Can provide direction, encourage collaboration and support positive change
  • Want to make a difference in your local community

Full training, guidance and ongoing support are provided, and the role is designed to be flexible around your other commitments.

Help shape what comes next.

Our 14–24 provision in North Hambleton continues to grow and develop, this is a great opportunity to help shape the next chapter, creating more adventure, more opportunities and more young people gaining skills for life.
