The Youth Endowment Fund
Senior Change Designer - Area Leaders Programme
Reports to: Area Leaders Programme Change Lead
Salary: £52,700
Contract: 2-year fixed term
Location: Central London, Hybrid*
Closing date: Friday 10th October 2025 at 12pm
About the Youth Endowment Fund
We’re here to prevent children and young people becoming involved in violence. We do this by finding out what works and building a movement to put this knowledge into practice.
Last year, 244 people in England and Wales tragically died after being assaulted with a knife. Of these, 32 were children. Every child captured in these numbers is an important member of our community and society has a duty to protect them. Even when violence doesn’t strike directly, we know that the fear of violence has a terrible effect on children’s lives.
The Youth Endowment Fund exists to try and permanently change things. To succeed, we must deeply understand how to reduce the violence that affects young people. We then have to make this information highly relevant and accessible to the people making decisions for vulnerable young people. In practice, this means we need to find out what works and what doesn’t through high quality qualitative and quantitative research into children’s lives. We then must convert this into really accessible content on what works, how delivery organisations (like schools, councils, police forces and more) can change what they do, how the systems have to change. We then need to work with and inspire those making decisions. Together, we believe we can change things permanently for children.
At the heart of this work is our new Area Leaders Programme. It provides support to local councils on what they can do in their towns and cities to change things. To work, the sessions need to be brilliantly designed with great materials and really well delivered. This is where you come in.
About the Area Leaders Programme
The Area Leaders Programme (ALP) brings together local partnerships in a town or a city to better protect children from being drawn into violence. These partnerships often include the police, youth justice services, children’s services, health, education, youth and community organisations.
We aim to do this by supporting areas to develop the five Ps of violence prevention:
- Partnerships: Build strong, accountable partnerships with clear roles, governance, and measurable goals.
- Profile: Understand the local drivers, context, and patterns of serious violence.
- People: Identify the children most at risk and ensure they get the right support at the right time.
- Places: Pinpoint high-risk locations and take action to make them safer.
- Practice: Share and apply best practice consistently across all key agencies.
About the role
As Senior Designer and Facilitator, you’ll play a vital role in shaping how ALP supports local partnerships. You’ll help turn evidence into practical action by designing engaging workshops, tools and resources that help professionals plan and work together more effectively. You will also take a leading role in facilitating active and inspiring workshops.
You’ll work closely with the ALP Change Lead, Senior Manager, our delivery partners and the wider Change team to make sure we’re constantly improving the support we offer.
Key Responsibilities
Design and Delivery
- Design creative, evidence-informed workshop plans and activities.
- Facilitate engaging workshops, both online and in person.
- Create visual tools that make complex ideas clear and easy to understand.
- Incorporate the voices and experiences of young people into ALP workshops.
- Develop and test tools that support areas to map local services, referral pathways and gaps in provision.
- Develop creative approaches to problem solving.
Collaboration and Support
- Work closely with local partnerships to help them identify challenges, opportunities and practical next steps, including creating local action plans.
- Support partnerships to navigate complexity and implement plans in the context of complex systems.
- Work as part of a collaborative, learning-oriented team, helping us continually refine our approach.
Learning and Improvement
- Capture insights from workshops and feed them back into improving the programme.
- Use design thinking to support other parts of YEF’s change work where needed.
Please review the full job description on our website, which includes the 'About You' section.
You must have significant experience in:
- A relevant design discipline, this could be service design, systems design, speculative design, policy design or a similar field.
- Applying design skills to address social purpose and/or inequalities.
- Workshop facilitation with participants from diverse professional backgrounds.
Ideally you will also have this sort of experience (but it’s not necessary to apply):
- A formal qualification in a relevant area of design, or applying design for social purpose, or relevant experience.
- First-hand knowledge of the system that supports highly vulnerable children, particularly those at risk of or involved in violence. You understand the barriers these children face and what it takes to get them the right support.
While it’s not a criterion, we’re especially interested to hear from applicants who have lived experience of youth violence.
It’s also important to us that the people we hire do not discriminate. We believe in being inclusive and giving everyone an equal chance to succeed. Applications are welcome from all regardless of age, sex, gender identity, disability, marriage or civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, religion or belief, race, sexual orientation, transgender status or social economic background.
Hybrid Working Details
The office is based in Central London. Those living in and around London are expected to be in the office for a minimum of 2 days per week. If you live outside of London and work remotely, you’ll be expected to work from the London office 2 days per month.
