About us

The Alliance for Youth Justice is an alliance of more than 70 non-profit organisations advocating with and for children to drive positive change in youth justice across England and Wales. We mobilise our members’ frontline expertise, children’s lived experience, and evidence from research to champion a child-centred, rights-based and trauma-informed system that treats contact with the justice system as a sign of unmet need and systemic failure, prioritises support over criminalisation and gives every child the opportunity to thrive.

We're widely recognised as the most influential group campaigning for improvements to the system, with trusted access to decision makers, working towards three goals: keeping children safe from the youth justice system through prevention and diversion; racial justice across the system; and custody as a last resort for children.

About the role

Following the launch of our new strategic approach, our Operations and Membership Lead will provide the operational, financial and administrative backbone of the organisation — keeping our finances and governance on track, and coordinating our network of over 70 member organisations.

Finance, operations and governance (70%) — manage bookkeeping in QuickBooks, coordinate banking, prepare management accounts, support grant financial reporting, maintain internal systems (SharePoint, IT), lead on policy compliance (safeguarding, GDPR, health and safety), and support Board governance and statutory filings.

Membership coordination (30%) — manage the end-to-end membership process from enquiries to renewals, coordinate member surveys and data, and organise our events — quarterly member meetings, roundtables and webinars.

Anti-racist, anti-oppressive practice runs through how we work with our Board, staff, members and stakeholders.

About you

You have experience in an operations, finance or administrative coordination role within a non-profit or membership organisation, including managing the full financial cycle within a charity and a working knowledge of charity fund accounting. You're practically experienced with QuickBooks (or equivalent), highly proficient in Microsoft 365, SharePoint and Excel-based tracking systems or CRMs, and bring exceptional organisational skills, discretion and a proactive, self-motivated approach. You have a personal commitment to anti-racism, social justice and child rights.

Why join us

We're a small team of three punching well above our weight, with real scope to shape how we work and few layers of hierarchy. We offer flexible, trust-based home working (within core hours), plus 25 days' leave (pro rata), Christmas office closure, and a 5% employer pension contribution.

We encourage applications from historically marginalised groups even if you don't meet every requirement, and we do not use criminal records to exclude candidates.

We play our role by connecting and catalysing community-led change, providing the money, time, tools and connections that build organisations’ capacity and capability, to make people’s lives better and their communities stronger. 

We back people and communities across England and Wales, to make that happen, because when you back brilliant people, brilliant things happen.

Through thoughtful engagement, you'll build lasting relationships and raise awareness of social issues, to ensure visits generate meaningful impact.

You will support colleagues and partners to maximise opportunities, follow up actions, and effectively generate and use content, stories, videos and images to tell powerful stories.

Importantly, you’ll ensure community-led organisations experience these visits as supportive and beneficial, and that their voices are centred in all that occurs and follows, aligning with our mission to foster community-led change.

multiple stakeholders. 

Alongside strong communication skills, with an understanding of how to apply

Beder was established in memory of Beder Mirjan, who sadly took his own life in 2017 at the age of 18. Since then, we have spent the past eight years working to raise awareness around mental health and suicide prevention, challenge stigma and, increasingly, provide tangible support to people who need it.

The focus of our work is the Beder Therapy Voucher programme, through which we fund free therapy for people (18+) across the UK as we all need someone to talk to with demand for that support growing significantly.

Until now, much of Beder's fundraising has been founder-led, supported by an incredible network of ambassadors, partners, businesses and individuals. We have built exciting partnerships across sport, business, entertainment and hospitality whilst creating a charity with an engaged community and an ambitious vision for the future.

We are now ready to build a dedicated and sustainable fundraising function so we are looking for someone who can take ownership of that journey.

This isn't a role for someone who simply wants to manage an existing fundraising programme as we are looking for someone who enjoys building one. Whilst working closely with our founder, trustees and wider team, you will develop and execute Beder's fundraising strategy, building sustainable income across corporate partnerships, major donors, trusts and foundations, individual giving, campaigns and events.

You will inherit a compelling cause, an established brand, strong relationships and a growing pipeline of opportunities – but you will also have the freedom to shape how Beder approaches fundraising for the future.

We are looking for someone who is equally comfortable developing a fundraising strategy, writing a compelling funding proposal, meeting a potential corporate partner and picking up the phone to a prospective supporter.

Above all, we want someone who believes in what Beder is trying to achieve and wants to roll their sleeves up and help us build something special.

Our immediate objective is to develop a diversified fundraising programme capable of sustaining our Beder Therapy Voucher service enabling Beder to meet the growing demand for free therapy while continuing to expand our wider mental health and suicide prevention work.

The successful candidate will have significant autonomy to develop the strategy, partnerships and fundraising infrastructure required to achieve that.

We are open to candidates from a range of fundraising backgrounds and would particularly welcome experience across corporate partnerships, philanthropy/major donors, trusts and foundations and strategic fundraising.

Experience within mental health is welcome but is not essential.

What matters most is that you are an outstanding relationship builder, an effective fundraiser and someone excited by the opportunity to help take a small, ambitious charity into its next chapter.

Are you an experienced marketing professional who thrives on creating impactful campaigns, building strong stakeholder relationships and driving audience growth through insight-led marketing?

This is an exciting opportunity to join a respected professional membership organisation and educational charity at a time of significant development and growth. Working within a collaborative team, you'll lead the marketing strategy for a portfolio of professional qualifications, helping to attract future students, engage employers and strengthen the position of industry-leading qualifications.

As Qualifications Marketing Manager, you'll be responsible for developing and delivering strategic marketing plans that increase awareness, generate engagement and grow the student pipeline. You'll use audience insight, research and performance data to shape campaigns, improve customer journeys and deliver measurable results.

This role offers a unique blend of strategic marketing, stakeholder engagement and content development. You'll work closely with employers, training providers and internal teams to ensure marketing activity reaches the right audiences, communicates clear value and supports long-term growth objectives.

What you'll be doing

• Leading the marketing strategy and delivery for professional qualifications, certifications and programmes
  • Driving student recruitment and awareness through targeted B2B and B2C campaigns
  • Leading the marketing activity for a major qualification launch and ongoing promotional campaigns
  • Using audience insight, market research and performance data to inform strategic decision-making
  • Mapping and improving customer journeys to increase engagement and conversion
  • Creating compelling content across websites, email marketing, social media and digital advertising
  • Developing marketing plans, creative briefs and campaign assets that align with brand guidelines
  • Building strong relationships with employers, training providers and key stakeholders
  • Managing agency relationships and external suppliers
  • Monitoring performance, analysing results and reporting on ROI and campaign effectiveness
  

The appointed candidate will have:

• Proven experience delivering integrated marketing and campaign strategies
  • Experience of both B2B and B2C marketing
  • Strong analytical skills and experience using data and insight to drive decisions
  • Excellent stakeholder engagement and relationship-building skills
  • Strong project management skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities
  • Experience developing engaging content across digital channels
  • Confidence working with CRM systems, website platforms and marketing analytics tools
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including presentation skills
  • A proactive and self-directed approach with excellent attention to detail
  • Experience within a membership body, professional education or qualifications environment would be highly desirable

Closing date: 25 September 2026
