We are now looking for a Senior Network Manager to join our London team.

FUNCTION: 

To manage the effective implementation of programme delivery and development in your area. This role will work with staff, schools and corporate partners to ensure that we deliver impact for the girls and young women we serve.

WHERE THE ROLE FITS: 

Reporting to: Programme Delivery Lead.

Direct Reports: Network Managers (x3)

PAY BAND:

£33,600 per annum

CONTRACT:

Permanent

HOURS:

5 days per week, 37.5 hours

LOCATION: Home based with regular travel across Central, North and South of London. Our expectation for the role is for the successful candidate to live in London.

WHAT WE DO

Young people from lower income families are 40% less likely to go to University than wealthier peers (Dept for Education, 2020) which can have a lifelong impact on earning potential. Covid-19 has deepened inequalities (Social Mobility Foundation, 2022) and negatively impacted on young people's wellbeing (GirlGuiding, 2020). We believe that no girls should have their futures limited by their gender, sex, ethnicity, background, or parental income and they should be supported to realise their ambitions, to discover their self-worth, and to develop their capacity to shape their world and their futures.

We work in communities of least advantage across England to deliver two core programmes to achieve this vision. Through our mentoring programme we connect 14-19 year old girls with a mentor and a wider network of role models who are women and deliver opportunities which help them to build life skills and nurture their ambitions. Based on the idea that 'you can't be what you can't see', our mentors often help girls to broaden their horizons and create a more positive vision of their futures. After the programme, the mentees can join a free, lifelong network of support - our Ambassador Community, which offers further opportunities to reach their goals, build their confidence and to share their voices and experiences.

Our programmes help girls and young women to develop the knowledge, skills, self-belief and opportunities to thrive, and to be supported as part of a network that champions them and ensures their voices are heard.
