Internal communication jobs
People are at the heart of everything we do at UCCF.
Over the last two years, we've invested significantly in building excellent People practices across UCCF. We've strengthened our policies, improved our processes, created clear foundations for growth, and developed a People function that exists to help our staff thrive as they serve students across Great Britain.
Now we're entering an exciting new chapter.
We're launching a brand new HR system (HiBob), modernising the way we work, refreshing key policies and practices, and creating a more connected employee experience across the organisation. We're looking for a People Advisor who wants to help shape what comes next.
The role
This is a varied and rewarding generalist HR role with responsibility across the employee lifecycle. You'll take a lead on key areas including recruitment, onboarding and internal communications, while also supporting HR operations and projects across the wider organisation.
One day you might be supporting managers with a recruitment campaign, welcoming new starters and coordinating inductions. The next you could be analysing engagement survey results, improving a People process, creating internal communications content, or helping implement new ways of working through HiBob, our new HR system.
You'll thrive in this role if you're curious, people focused and proactive, with a passion for improving experiences, solving problems and making things better. You'll bring strong organisational and communication skills and a desire to develop. Some experience of HR systems, recruitment or people processes would be helpful, but we know great candidates don't always tick every box. If this role excites you, we'd love to hear from you and discuss how we can support your development, including towards a CIPD Level 5 qualification if that's not something you already have.
The role is based at Blue Boar House in central Oxford with hybrid working. Our expectation is that you'd spend approximately 60% of your time working together in person across a month. For many people this typically works out as around three days per week in the office, although conference attendance and occasional travel may mean some weeks look different. Our office is located in the heart of Oxford with views of the dreaming spires and every lunch option you can imagine right on our doorstep.
If that sounds exciting, we'd love to hear from you.

The Damilola Taylor Trust (DTT) is a charitable company limited by guarantee incorporated in May 2001 in memory of Damilola Taylor and registered as a charity in July 2001.Our founding purpose is to provide inner-city youths with opportunities to play, learn and live their lives free of fear and violence, and with optimism for a future where opportunities abound. Our Mission is to develop the hope, optimism and self-esteem of young people so that they can: Lead healthy lives; Stay in School; Grow up to become independent productive adults; Have lofty aspirations and work to attain their innate potential.
Although we have recovered from the Covid 19 pandemic, the nation now faces the worst cost of living crisis since the 1950s, thanks to the Russian Ukraine war, and now the US Israel Iran one which have disrupted the global energy market. There is no denying that, in the UK, young people (YP) are being disproportionally affected. We are deeply concerned about the impact this crisis is having on the young people that we work with across the board.
The UK youth unemployment rate for 16-24-year-olds sits at a concerning 16.2%, an 11-year high. There are over 1 million young people not in education, employment or training (NEET). We know that high numbers of vacancies do not translate into opportunities for all young people, especially those from BAME background who already face discrimination in the labour market.
We are responding to this emerging issue, by working harder and smarter to support young people that we work with for whom the transition from formal education into employment is not automatic. We work to help this group have access to economic opportunities in these challenging times. We believe that our services bridge this gap and provide opportunities for young people to develop wider social, personal and self -management skills required for productive participation and integration into society. For additional information about the Trust and its programmes, please go to our website.

· Manage enquiries to the Trust and respond to routine enquiries, ensuring that actions are followed up
· Proactively manage our website day-to-day and post to our social media, consulting where necessary. Produce leaflets, publicity and newsletters

The Youth Endowment Fund
Programme Delivery Manager - Change Team
Reports to: Senior Grants and Commissioning Manager
Salary: £42,000
Location: Central London or Hybrid
Contract: 2-year fixed term – potential to extend
Closing date: 9 am, Tuesday 14th July
Interview dates: 28th and 29th July
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.
In recent years violent crime has risen significantly. Homicides, assaults, robberies and offences involving weapons have all seen sustained growth. We have also seen large increases in violent crime involving children and young people. This is a tragedy. Every child captured in these numbers is an important member of our community and society has a duty to protect them.
The Youth Endowment Fund (YEF) is a charity with a £200m endowment and a mission that matters. We exist to prevent children and young people becoming involved in violence. We do this by funding great initiatives, finding what works and working for change - scaling and spreading the practices that make a difference.
One of the most important things we do is turn evidence into action through our change programmes, working directly with schools, local leaders and services to change practice and prevent violence. To deliver these programmes well, we need clear plans, smooth commissioning and procurement processes, accurate data and strong coordination across teams and partners.
The Programme Delivery Manager role is critical to making that happen, and it has two distinct elements:
Programme management for two Change programmes: You’ll be the hands-on programme lead for two of our main change programmes. You’ll work closely with the Change delivery team to put clear, aligned plans in place and then brilliantly manage those plans day to day, making sure everyone knows what’s expected of them and by when.
Commissioning and procurement support for the whole Change team: You’ll also be the go-to source of guidance and advice for Change colleagues who are procuring or commissioning other activity. You’ll help the team navigate processes correctly, ensuring commissioning is captured and maintained accurately in Salesforce and keep our ways of working consistent across the team. By keeping us organised and on track, you’ll help us maximise the impact of every pound we invest.
Key responsibilities
Your role has these two distinct but complementary elements. The first is hands-on programme management for two of our main Change programmes. The second is acting as a source of guidance, advice and practical support on commissioning and procurement for the wider Change team. Together, these responsibilities are essential to keeping our programmes on track and our commissioning processes running smoothly and consistently. A detailed list of your key responsibilities is given below:
1: Hands-on programme management for two Change programmes
-
Lead programme planning and coordination:
-
Work with the delivery team to make sure we have clear, aligned programme plans in place, with timelines, milestones and owners for every workstream.
-
Brilliantly manage those plans day to day, making sure everyone knows what’s expected of them and by when, and that the team stays on track across multiple demanding workstreams.
-
Track dependencies and progress, flag risks to delivery early and coordinate solutions before issues become blockers.
2: Guidance, advice and practical support on commissioning and procurement for the Change team
-
Manage contracts and commissioning for delivery partners
-
Draft, prepare and execute agreements and subsequent variations with delivery partners and commissioned providers, using Adobe e-Sign where required.
-
Accurately input and maintain all programme data in Salesforce, including deliverables, financial commitments, payment schedules and supporting documents.
-
Ensure timely reporting and compliance with contractual requirements.
-
Resolve payment queries and discrepancies quickly, chasing outstanding invoices and reports where needed, and conduct regular data accuracy spot checks in Salesforce.
-
Support process improvements and ways of working
-
Work with the Senior Grants and Commissioning Manager to keep the team’s commissioning and procurement processes consistent with YEF-wide ways of working.
-
Develop and maintain simple, effective tools for planning, tracking and reporting, building on the systems we already use (including Salesforce).
-
Identify and suggest process enhancements to drive efficiency and consistency across our programme and commissioning operations.
-
Enable effective communication and reporting
-
Serve as the central point of contact for programme delivery, commissioning and procurement requests across the team, ensuring streamlined processes and avoiding duplication.
-
Provide timely responses and clear communication to internal teams and external partners to keep everything moving.
-
Keep senior leadership informed with forward plans, dashboards and progress updates to support better strategic decisions.

-

-
You’re brilliant at improving and organising things: You enjoy finding ways to make processes better and more efficient. You’re good at understanding how things work and making them work even better.
-
You’re a great communicator: You build strong relationships with colleagues and external stakeholders providing clear guidance and timely responses. People trust you to keep things moving.
-
You thrive in a support role: You like being the person who makes things happen behind the scenes. You’re motivated by helping teams work efficiently and keeping complex programmes on track.
