The Advocacy Academy is an activist youth movement. We serve as the political home for grassroots youth organising and the catalyst for collective action. The lives of the young people we work alongside have been directly shaped by living in an unjust world, and we exist to turn their anger into action.
Young people are often the catalysts for major social change, from the Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee at the heart of the Civil Rights Movement, to the Soweto Uprising mobilising young people to resist the apartheid regime's education policies, to the Sunrise Movement redrawing the electoral map across America, and more recently encampments and protests across the world protesting the genocide in Palestine. How successfully they achieve real and lasting change depends on whether they are organised and whether they have the right strategy and tactics to be effective.
We want youth organising to be enshrined in the UK for generations to come, and for young people to have tangible political power to influence national policy. That’s why we have launched two national coalitions, one around climate, and the other around gender. Each will train organisations across the country to become youth organisers, and work together to bring 100 young people together to identify the strategy and tactics needed to achieve change. These young leaders will organise others and work collectively to build a campaign which shakes the status quo.
We are looking for a Head of Programmes who believes in this vision and is capable of building the leadership of young people that enables them to turn the resources they have into the power they need to make the change they want. It will be your job to help grow the Changemaker Development programme, train and organise Changemakers, create magic and spark the hope for something more! If this excites you, then please apply.

In the role of Partnership Lead, you will play a pivotal part in a fast-growing, pioneering charity supporting young men leaving prison to build stable, rewarding lives.
Switchback is a charity rooted in relationships and nowhere is this more critical than in our partnerships with organisations providing training, education, and employment opportunities for the young men (Trainees) we support following release from prison.
This role holds primary responsibility for developing, managing and continuously improving Switchback’s partnership ecosystem across all 10 pathways, ensuring that Trainees have access to high-quality and diverse range of opportunities that support sustained rehabilitation outcomes.

Building on Switchback’s strong reputation for partnership working, this role is expected to strengthen and scale our network in a structured and disciplined way, ensuring that growth is intentional, well-managed and aligned to Trainee need.
The partnerships we develop must enable Trainees to step beyond their comfort zones, supporting meaningful personal development and delivering real, lasting change.
Working closely with the Head of Delivery, you will ensure all partnership activity is aligned with Switchback’s values, delivery model and strategic aims and that Mentors are effectively supported to connect Trainees to the right opportunities at the right time.
We support young men to find a way out of the justice system and build a stable, rewarding life they can be proud of.

5. Internal Collaboration & Delivery
Work closely with Marketing, Fundraising & Development, and Charity Support teams

Introduction to Reset
Reset is a bold new incubation designed to dramatically change the lives of some of the most vulnerable children in England today for the better.
Reset exists for children who are on, or at risk of being placed on Deprivation of Liberty orders due to the high risks they face from themselves or others, their complex and intersecting needs, and due to the lack of effective support available.
The children Reset will support are likely to be aged 12 to 18 and face complex challenges that often stem from the impact of traumatic childhood experiences, such as mental ill-health, self-harming, being sexually and/or criminally exploited and getting caught in harmful risk-taking behaviours including the use of harmful substances such as drugs and alcohol.
Reset is determined to ensure that, wherever possible, children are able to thrive back within their own families and/or communities.
About the role
We are looking for a highly organised, proactive and thoughtful coordinator to support the Chief Executive and founding team during this exciting early stage of Reset’s development.
Alongside executive support, this role offers exposure to the breadth of work at Reset, from operations to communications, philanthropy and wider organisational work.
To thrive in the role, you will be highly organised, proactive, detail-oriented and keen to contribute across a small and ambitious team where no two days will be the same. You will enjoy working flexibly and collaboratively, building relationships, and helping things run smoothly for the team and partners around us.
This role will play an important part in helping shape Reset’s culture, systems and ways of working during this early stage of development.
With a strong commitment to your growth, we offer support to help you excel professionally and advance your career, as well as a flexible working culture that champions both impact and balance. We provide in-office collaboration time with genuine flexibility to support your wellbeing, personal commitments, and life outside work.
