Background

MyBnk are an award winning education charity delivering financial and enterprise education programmes to young people aged 7-25. Formed in London in 2007, today MyBnk has worked with 200,000 young people across South East, South, South West, Merseyside and North East.

Managing money opens up new opportunities. For a young person leaving care, knowing how to budget for a weekly shop can help them live independently for the first time in their lives. For an aspiring young entrepreneur it might mean at last having the skills to get their business off the ground.

Whatever their background, whatever their ambition MyBnk helps put young people in control of their money and their dreams within reach. We call it investing in their future!

We are looking for an experienced educator to run our operations in the Liverpool area.
