We’re looking for a Chief Executive Officer to drive the growth of Young Citizens, and ensure that citizenship becomes an increasingly integral part of education in the UK.

Closing date: Monday 26th April

Today’s young citizens are shining a light on critical issues such as Climate Change, Black Lives Matter and LGBT+ rights. The potential for the UK’s youth to actively drive true change and impact within society, through campaigning and education, has never been greater.

Young Citizens is a national charity working to promote citizenship education and social action throughout primary and secondary education in the UK. We operate as a crucial support system for young people and educators alike. Through a range of initiatives, including education programmes such as the Make a Difference Challenge and Democracy Ambassadors, and immersive learning experiences such as the National Bar Mock Trials, Young Citizens actively engages over 350,000 children aged 5-18 years old every year. We operate at the intersection of politics, the law, social action and the media, and the work we do has never been more important or influential.

This is an outstanding opportunity to join and lead Young Citizens and build a stronger and more effective organisation that champions active citizenship for life.

As our next Chief Executive, you join us at a pivotal time. With a 30-year heritage, a respected position in education and education policy, and a highly energised team, we are looking for a strategic and hands-on leader who can help us work smarter and improve our impact in a post-pandemic world.

You must have social action in your DNA. You must also be aligned to our values, have a track-record that demonstrates commercial acumen and innovation in business development and fundraising, be able to galvanize teams and effectively engage senior stakeholders, including policy makers and the media.

If you think this describes you – and you care passionately about empowering future generations of young citizens to positively shape society – then please get in touch. Recruitment pack available on our website.

The mission of Everyman Project is to benefit the community by eradicating domestic violence and abuse and by relieving victims from the effects of violence and abuse. It does this by providing in-depth counselling to people who want help to change their violent and abusive behaviours, as well as by offering practical and therapeutic support to survivors of domestic violence.  The counselling programme consists of a series of one-to-one counselling sessions followed by a series of group counselling sessions.  First registered with the Charity Commission in 1996, Everyman Project is a long established charity.  The Trustees registered the charity with Companies House in 2005 to additionally become a limited company.  Referrals come from Social Services, GPs, family and criminal courts, solicitors, psychiatrists and other mental health professionals, as well as self-referrers who find EP by word of mouth and by the website. 

Each year around 2.1m people suffer domestic abuse.  The Early Intervention Foundation estimated that in 2016-17, late intervention in domestic violence and abuse cases would cost the NHS £2,479 million, police £879 million, justice system £1,230 million, and local government £642 million.  Evidence suggests that re-offending rates are high, and by some estimates, they are higher than for any other category of offending.  Everyman Project enables individuals stuck in cycles of violence to reclaim their lives and often the lives of their loved ones by breaking cycles of domestic and other interpersonal violence.

The founder and current leading member of staff intends to retire this year, and the Board of Trustees/Directors is seeking to replace him with a dynamic new CEO, able to lead and promote the organisation effectively and provide the vision necessary to take the organisation forward.  This will initially be a part time post, starting at the equivalent of two days per week, possibly increasing in line with the resources of the company and the preferences of the post holder.  Pending satisfactory performance at the 6 month review, the post will be ongoing.  The Board acknowledges that the current level of part time working and salary (£36,000 pa, FTE) are themselves insufficient remuneration for the challenges the CEO would have to face.  That is why candidates must be motivated to help the community by making a positive difference to the domestic violence sector.  If the CEO is successful at fundraising, greater remuneration would be readily approved by the Board.

With the support of a capable and motivated new CEO, Everyman Project will be able to develop and grow to be of even greater benefit to the community.  The successful applicant will be rewarded with a role enabling her or him to make a significant positive impact on the lives of many individuals, as well as on their children and partners, and indeed on the wider community, by working towards relieving the affliction of interpersonal violence, and in particular domestic violence.
