Edgware Synagogue, with 1,900 members and 600 children, is one of the largest congregations in the UK and a flagship of the United Synagogue.  We cater to a very varied membership and your job will be to get more of our youth involved.

We are seeking to recruit two new Youth Directors / a Youth Couple in this expanded role in order to build on the work of their predecessors to enhance the informal Jewish education of the Youth and encourage a significant increase in the participation in Youth events.

Responsibilities will include organising youth activities on Shabbat and festivals, a mid-week Club, planning innovative programs and, most importantly, building relationships with the Youth of our Synagogue. 

You should have proven experience in:

  • Positions working with youth and demonstrate the ability to plan events from conception through to execution. 
  • Working closely with Tribe is an essential part of the role.
  • You must have plenty of initiative, good organisational, administrative and communication skills as well as demonstrating a passion for Judaism and the desire to help nurture that enthusiasm in others.

The Youth Directors will work closely with a dedicated team in the Synagogue, in particular, the Community Development Manager.
