Lack of passion

Recommend
CEO approval
Business outlook

Pros

You get to work with some amazing young people within the Lewisham borough, who are destined for greatness and passionate about their futures. There are many opportunities to develop your skills through certified training.

Cons

Some of the staff, especially in the management roles, seem to only care about "the money"... Not all designated clubs operate in this way, but often takes they don't share the same passion and values as the youth and play workers.
