YEF Detached Youth Work Project Lead
Relationships change lives.
At M13 Youth Project, we believe every young person deserves trusted adults who believe in them, walk alongside them and help them discover who they are, what they have to offer and the difference they can make. For over 30 years, we've built those relationships through detached youth work - meeting young people where they choose to be, listening deeply and creating opportunities for belonging, belief and hope.
We're now looking for an experienced Detached Youth Work Project Lead to join our team and play a central role in one of the UK's most ambitious detached youth work research pilots.
M13 is leading the Greater Manchester consortium delivering the Youth Endowment Fund (YEF) Detached Youth Work Pilot. The Pilot aims to build a strong evidence base for researching detached youth work, combining outstanding frontline practice with rigorous evaluation to shape the future of youth work nationally.
Reporting to the Founding Director, you'll provide the day-to-day leadership of M13's delivery of the pilot. You'll lead a small team of detached youth workers, coordinate operational delivery across intervention neighbourhoods and ensure the project is delivered safely, consistently and in line with the YEF Shared Practice Model and research requirements.
This is first and foremost a practice leadership role. You'll spend much of your week out in parks, streets and neighbourhoods, building trusted relationships with young people through high-quality detached youth work. Alongside this, you'll supervise and support colleagues, oversee monitoring and reporting, build positive relationships with community members and partner organisations, and, together with the Founding Director, work closely with the Centre for Evidence and Implementation (CEI) and consortium partners to ensure the successful delivery of the project.
We're looking for someone who is an experienced detached youth worker, confident leading others and passionate about relational practice. You'll be organised, reflective and proactive, with experience of supervising staff, coordinating projects, maintaining high-quality records and working collaboratively with partners. Most importantly, you'll share our belief that relationships are the foundation for meaningful change.
This is a 35-hour per week, office- and community-based role. (M13's full-time week is 37.5 hours). Your week will include six detached youth work sessions (three afternoons and three evenings), alongside team leadership, partnership working, supervision, monitoring and project coordination. Some flexibility can be offered around when office-based work is undertaken, where operationally possible.
In return, we offer a supportive, reflective and values-led working environment, regular supervision, ongoing professional development, a generous employer pension contribution, TOIL for out-of-hours working, additional Christmas gift leave and the opportunity to contribute to nationally significant research that could shape the future of detached youth work.
If you're an experienced detached youth worker ready to combine excellent frontline practice with leadership, learning and innovation, we'd love to hear from you.
Please submit your CV together with answers to the five questions below, limiting your response to 250 words per question. Please do not exceed the word limit as doing so may affect the scoring of your answers. We encourage you to use examples from your own practice, explaining not only what you did, but why you made particular decisions and what you learned.
We use a blind recruitment process to help ensure fair and equitable recruitment. Applications will be shortlisted against the Person Specification, so please demonstrate how your skills, experience and values meet the requirements of the role. We welcome examples from paid or voluntary roles, and recognise that many skills are transferable.
We exist to be a consistent, trusted presence in communities experiencing deep-rooted inequality.

Salary: £45,000–£48,000 per annum, depending on experience
About the role
This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in an important period of development and transformation for West London Synagogue.
Working closely with the executive team, the postholder will provide coordination and project management across a range of organisational priorities and will play a key role in supporting the delivery of the wider transformation programme.
The role will bring together project management, organisational performance, impact measurement, reporting and continuous improvement.
The successful candidate will help turn strategic priorities into practical plans, ensure projects remain on track, and provide clear information to senior leaders and the Board about progress, performance and impact.
This is a broad and varied role for someone who enjoys working across an organisation, bringing structure to complexity and helping people turn good ideas into effective delivery.
Key Responsibilities
1. Transformation and Organisational Priorities
- Play a key role in coordinating and supporting the organisation's transformation programme.
- Work with the Chief Executive, the finance and resources director and senior colleagues to translate strategic priorities into clear plans, actions, milestones and deliverables.
- Track progress against agreed priorities and identify risks, delays, dependencies and resource pressures.
- Identify connections and opportunities for collaboration between different projects and programmes.
- Support colleagues in embedding new processes, systems and ways of working arising from the transformation programme.
- Ensure that agreed decisions are translated into clear actions, ownership and follow-through.
- Support a culture of continuous improvement, learning and accountability.
The postholder will not be expected to manage every change initiative directly. Their role will be to provide structure, coordination and visibility across the transformation programme, working with colleagues who own individual projects and areas of work.
2. Project Management
- Plan, coordinate and deliver a range of organisational projects in line with agreed priorities and timelines.
- Develop proportionate project plans setting out objectives, milestones, deliverables, responsibilities, dependencies and measures of success.
- Coordinate internal teams, volunteers, partners and external stakeholders where required.
- Facilitate project meetings, workshops and reviews.
- Maintain clear project documentation, actions and decision logs.
Projects are likely to vary in scale and nature and may include organisational improvement, systems and process development, governance, member services, operational change, programme development and cross-team initiatives.
3. Organisational Performance and Data
- Collect, analyse and interpret data to understand project and organisational performance and impact
- Develop clear and proportionate dashboards and management information.
- Identify trends, gaps, risks and areas requiring attention.
- Work with colleagues to establish meaningful KPIs and measures of success.
- Ensure information is accurate, appropriately managed and compliant with relevant data protection requirements.
4. Board and Senior Leadership Reporting
- Coordinate the preparation of clear, concise and meaningful reports for the Board.
- Establish and maintain an effective reporting timetable.
- Track actions and decisions arising from Board and committee meetings and ensure appropriate follow-up.
The emphasis will be on insight rather than simply reporting activity — helping leaders and trustees understand what is happening, why it matters and where action is required.
5. Governance, Compliance and Policies
- Maintain and regularly update the organisational compliance log, duties and mitigation plans.
- Monitor progress against compliance requirements and highlight emerging risks.
- Support colleagues to ensure compliance actions are followed through.
- Develop, review and update organisational policies and operational procedures.
6. Stakeholder Engagement and Coordination
- Build effective working relationships across the organisation.
- Work collaboratively with staff, volunteers, trustees, partners and external stakeholders.
- Bring people together where projects or priorities cross organisational boundaries.
- Facilitate meetings, workshops and project reviews where required.
- Communicate progress, challenges, risks and successes clearly and appropriately.

- Experience supporting an organisational transformation or change programme.
- Experience working in a charity, synagogue, community organisation, social enterprise or other purpose-led organisation.
- Experience working with Boards, trustees or governance committees.
- Experience developing organisational dashboards or management information.
