UK Youth brings together young people and youth workers with business leaders, teachers, doctors, and other professionals to identify solutions, provide practical support and campaign for social change. By working at UK Youth, you will be a joining a committed group of people who are seeking to tackle the systemic problems letting young people down.
We are a value-based, passionate and committed organisation offering a friendly working environment with lots of opportunities for professional development and socialising (even for those working remotely!) from lunch and learn sessions, staff quizzes to virtual coffee meet ups.
UK Youth prides itself on being an Equal Opportunity employer and we would particularly welcome applications for this role from those who identify under one of the protected characteristics under the Equality Act 2010.
We value the differences that a diverse workforce brings and are committed to inclusivity, and to employing and supporting a diverse workforce.
