Job description

Partnerships and Best Practice Lead

Salary: £42,000
Contract: 36 hours per week, fixed term (12 months initially, with potential to extend subject to funding)
Location: Home-based, with travel for meetings, collaboration, and partnership work. You’ll be expected to spend time in person with colleagues and partners across locations including London, Sutton Coldfield and Hull.
Reports to: Director of Strategy, Partnerships and Advocacy

About the Role

Too many young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) face a sharp drop in support as they transition into adulthood. This role sits within an ambitious new programme, Ending the Cliff Edge, designed to change that.

As Partnerships and Best Practice Lead, you will play a central role in building a national, cross-sector alliance of young people, families, practitioners, organisations and service providers. Together, this alliance will drive meaningful reform and create better pathways into adulthood for disabled young people.

This is an opportunity to help shape a new initiative from the ground up—spreading best practice, testing innovative approaches, and building strong evidence of what works.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and maintain a broad collaborative partnership of cross‑sector organisations, providers, and experts to achieve collective ambition of driving improvement in transitions support.
  • Refine, capture and share best‑practice models for supporting disabled young people into adulthood, ensuring they are evidence‑informed and accessible.
  • Support partner organisations to design, adapt and deliver pilots that test innovative approaches and generate strong evidence of impact.
  • Expand Kids’ national reach by growing the number of young people supported through improved transitions pathways, and increasing the number of businesses and providers engaged.
  • Act as the central link between Kids’ direct delivery and wider national partners, ensuring learning is shared widely and consistently.
  • Represent Kids externally as a champion for high‑quality transitions support, contributing to sector learning, collaboration and thought leadership.

About You

You are a confident relationship builder with experience of working across sectors and bringing people together around a shared goal. You’re comfortable working in a developing programme environment, able to take initiative, manage ambiguity, and turn ideas into action.

You are motivated by improving outcomes for disabled young people and have a strong understanding of the barriers they face.

Essential Criteria

  • Proven experience of partnership development and cross-sector collaboration
  • Experience identifying and sharing best practice, and translating learning into practical resources
  • Ability to coordinate and support pilot projects, including stakeholder engagement and evaluation
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills across a wide range of stakeholders
  • Strong understanding of challenges faced by disabled young people transitioning to adulthood
  • Ability to communicate complex ideas clearly to diverse audiences
  • Experience supporting funder relationships and understanding funding environments
  • Strong organisational and project management skills
  • Ability to work independently, manage multiple priorities, and sustain partnerships
  • Experience using data and insight to inform practice and demonstrate impact

Desirable

  • Experience in disability, SEND, education, employment or youth sectors
  • Knowledge of policy and practice related to transitions into adulthood
  • Experience facilitating training, workshops or communities of practice
  • Familiarity with co-production approaches
  • Experience evaluating programmes and capturing outcomes

Why Apply?

This is a unique opportunity to help shape a national movement for change—working collaboratively to ensure disabled young people have the support, opportunities and outcomes they deserve as they move into adulthood.

Interviews will take place on 21st and 22nd May 2026
