Vacancies

Join the team at the Y!

The Y is always happy to hear from people who want to work in a community-focused organisation.

We have roles across youth services, youth development, in our gym team, in climbing, education, administration, management, and more! We have a range of permanent full-time and part-time roles, as well as casual positions.

We list all vacancies on this page. If you don’t see anything that quite fits, but are interested in supporting our vision of building strong kids, strong families and strong communities, please feel free to reach out anyway! Email your details to hr@ymcasouth.org.nz.

All permanent employees at the Y Southland are entitled to a free gym membership at the Y, and a paid day off on your birthday.


Relief Tutor opportunities

At the Y we have four classrooms, delivering Intensive Literacy and Numeracy (ILN), and the NZ Certificate in Foundation Skills Levels 1 and 2 to learners aged 16+.

Our programmes are designed to support rangatahi who haven’t quite found success at school, and we provide a supportive, encouraging environment to help them build confidence, skills and a pathway forward.

We’re on the lookout for relief tutors to step in on a casual, as-needed basis.

If you’re passionate about teaching, patient, and keen to make a real difference but maintain flexibility in your mahi, we’d love to hear from you!

If you’d like to know more, email hr@ymcasouth.org.nz today!
