You understand how to develop partnerships that are equitable, transformational, and that centre the voices and needs of young people.

As a member of the Senior Management Team, you will work closely with the CEO to lead our partnerships and community engagement work — creating the enabling conditions and networks that help youth-led movements grow, sustain, and make lasting change.
You will take lead on:
- Partnering with other funders to resource youth-led change, including co-designed and co-held programmes with other foundations.
- Developing community partnerships based on the needs and priorities of the young people we are here to serve - including charities, local businesses, and local authorities.
