• A collaborative leader, who works brilliantly with colleagues and partners
• Values-led, ensuring everything we do reflects who we are as an organisation

You’ll understand how to communicate impact in a way that inspires support, while staying true to a trauma-informed, asset-based approach that puts dignity, strengths and potential first.

Above all, you’ll be motivated by the opportunity to put young people front and centre of income generation – amplifying their voices ethically and authentically, and helping supporters see the difference they can make.
