Join us. We are building a better world for young people.
Frontier Youth Trust is an inclusive and broad movement of people building a better world for young people. We want to see this diversity reflected in our Leadership. We particularly welcome applications for the Leadership Team post of Movement Advocate from women, Black, Asian and minority ethnic candidates and LGBTQ+ candidates.
We are a growing movement committed to reaching young people on the margins. We are equipping this movement to take pioneering risks in their work with young people through training, coaching, practical resources, theological reflection and sharing good practice. We are looking for someone with a gift for communication to join our Leadership Team.
The Movement Advocate will help others to theologically reflect on their experiences with young people in the light of their faith, the principles of youth work, and the Christian story, to inspire people to catch a vision for pioneering with young people on the margins.
✓ Excellent teamwork and collaboration skills
✓ Extensive experience of pioneering with young people
✓ Strong online and offline communication skills
A Christian commitment is a genuine occupational requirement for this post.
