Are you passionate about making a difference to the lives of young people?
Are you a forward-thinking, ambitious and self-motivated individual with an understanding of digital marketing and storytelling in the charity sector? Can you tell compelling stories in a digital environment? Your search is over!
We are looking for a digital marketing executive to join us initially until the end of March. You will join a dynamic Marketing and Communications team at a pivotal point in our 100-year history as we embark on a new strategy with big ambitions.
As a national organisation with a growing public profile, we will be doubling our efforts to drive increased investment and develop new, innovative campaigns to support local youth services who are supporting some of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged young people in the UK. This work has never been more needed in the wake of a global pandemic.
To ensure we can deliver on these ambitions, finding new audiences and new ways to talk about the work of youth organisations is vital. This is an exciting time to join our amazing team in a role that offers you the opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of thousands of young people.
Who we are?
You will work closely with the Marketing Manager and the Communications Manager to raise awareness of the inspiring work UK Youth does and tell the stories of young people and those who support them in the youth work sector. UK Youth is a leading charity that exists to ensure young people are equipped to thrive and empowered to contribute at every stage of their lives. As an organisation, we make certain that the youth sector is strengthened, supported, and that provision is youth-led and informed by high-quality evidence.
There are more than 11 million young people in the UK, they make up over a fifth of the population and represent Britain’s future. They are the next generation of workers and leaders of society and yet they are facing a range of significant barriers to success. Lack of investment in the youth sector, and a lack of understanding of how youth work makes a difference, leads to mass inequality of access to support for young people. For many young people their youth worker is the only person they openly talk to, and their youth club is the only space they have to develop their skills, explore their character and realise their full potential.
Working with a 7,000 strong network of youth organisations, which make up the UK Youth Movement, we are uniquely placed to strengthen the sector. This accelerates the positive impact on young people by capturing, sharing and embedding learning and evidence across all those working with young people.

UK Youth prides itself on being an Equal Opportunity employer and we would particularly welcome applications for this role from those who identify under one of the protected characteristics under the Equality Act 2010, which include race, age, disability, gender, religion or belief, and sexual orientation.
We value the differences that a diverse workforce brings and are committed to inclusivity, and to employing and supporting a diverse workforce. Our selection procedures ensure that people are treated on the basis of their relevant merits, experience, skills and abilities and that no individual receives more or less favourable treatment. We can offer flexibility through the interview process and endeavour to accommodate the candidate’s needs.
What we can offer you?
We offer a competitive range of benefits, good work/life balance, excellent learning and development opportunities and vibrant organisational culture.
- Compensation package of £24,000-£28,000 (pro-rata depending on experience)
- 27 days annual leave plus bank holidays (pro-rata for part-time staff)

There are advantages to either location for the role; in India the work will be closer to the supply chain, in the UK - to the brands. Irrespective, this role will work internationally with our team and project partners.
About us
Forum for the Future is a leading international sustainability non-profit. For over 20 years we’ve been working to accelerate the shift to a just and sustainable future by transforming the systems we live in.
We specialise in addressing critical global challenges – from keeping global warming within 1.5 degrees to ensuring more sustainable food systems, value chains and livelihoods – by working in partnership with business, governments and civil society to catalyse change.
Together we can reinvent the way the world works.
Our people
We are a multi-cultural team of 80+ people, with offices in London, Mumbai, New York, and Singapore. We continue to grow our programmes of work across Asia and the United States. This post will work with a team of strategists and change designers focused on cultivating relationships with Forum’s external partners and multi-stakeholder coalitions to deliver transformational change.
Our work environment
We are inspired by the world in which we live and those with whom we share it. We celebrate the indivisibility of all life forms on Earth, are committed to the pursuit of equity, and seek to act justly in all we do. These values help build our common culture, shape our shared purpose and guide us in all actions and decisions. We believe in being courageous, adaptive, inquisitive, respectful, empathetic and playful. You can read more about our organisational values here.
We enjoy working in teams, collaborating, and learning from each other. We are a dynamic, flexible and supportive team of people who care about each other’s wellbeing and the world around us.
At Forum, we aspire to foster positive team spirit and to provide the best possible working environment for all our staff; one that is based on the highest standards of ethics, honesty, integrity, openness and transparency.
We are an inclusive organisation that encourages applications from across our diverse communities. We’re committed to building a team of capable and thriving people from all walks of life.
Role in a nutshell
In this role, you will:

- nurture high-level relationships with Forum’s network of partner organisations and other key stakeholders
- develop and fundraise for new projects that can deliver transformational outcomes
- actively contribute to the effective development of this workstream by using your substantial content expertise in sustainable value chains and livelihoods
About you
We are not looking for an ideal candidate as we recognise and value diverse experiences that people bring to work. We are keen to hear from people from any relevant professional background who believe in our purpose, share our values, and will bring their skills and desire to enact change.
To thrive in this role you will:
- have passion for sustainability and a just, regenerative future
- have knowledge and practical understanding or experience of value chains and global commodities, particularly agricultural, and related to textiles.

- have experience in managing multi-stakeholder collaborative projects
- have honed communication skills to be able to translate complex ideas and processes effectively to different types of audiences, including facilitation and public speaking
- know how to build and nurture strong relationships and networks – be it with project partners or colleagues
- be keen to apply your curious and analytical mind, making connections and understanding how things fit into the bigger picture
- be a strong manager – of time, budgets, people and project teams
- your preferred ways of working are embodied by Forum’s values (being courageous, adaptive, empathetic, inquisitive, playful and respectful).
If you do not meet all of the requirements outlined in the job description but still believe you have the right mix of skills and experience to thrive in this role and further Forum’s ambitious goals for change, we encourage you to apply.
In return, we offer a unique opportunity to be at the forefront of systems thinking and change making. We work as a close knit, dynamic, and supportive team. We offer various opportunities for flexible working to help you manage your work life balance.
