Manage and deliver our place based programmes for young people.
 

Since 2022, we’ve been growing our place-based programmes in key regions across the country - communities full of potential, creativity and ambition, but where young people can face barriers to accessing the same networks and opportunities as their peers.

Our new strategy, Ambition 2030, puts these local programmes at the heart of helping young people build the future they choose. With almost one million young people currently not in education, employment or training (NEET), the need to create meaningful pathways into work and learning has never been greater.

Through our place-based projects, backed and funded by industry leaders, we are focusing on the young people who are most at risk of missing out on the benefits of school.

We believe earlier intervention is key to solving the NEET crisis. This means delivering opportunities to practise and apply skills in real-world contexts. Providing meaningful encounters with a wide range of industries and professionals. And meeting young people where they are to build their confidence.

We’re seeking a project manager to lead this work with our trusted industry partners, working in collaboration with employers, local and combined authorities, schools and charities. We are currently delivering Ignite projects in Blackpool, East Riding of Yorkshire, Liverpool, Middlesbrough, Northampton, Rochdale and London, and may take on additional projects in new locations.

Key responsibilities

• Lead our Ignite place-based programmes, managing workshops, employer engagement, and volunteer coordination, while ensuring local partners stay central to design and delivery.
• Oversee programme delivery, stakeholder relationships, coordination and logistics
• Through targeted interventions ensure the right workshops and people are in place to support young people to raise their aspirations, develop their skills and bridge the gap between education and employment

This role is a hybrid of strategic and operational work.

Please note, these projects follow The Talent Foundry delivery model of being facilitator-led and supported by industry volunteers. As the project lead you will not be facilitating or teaching workshops, or providing 121 support to students.
