The Youth Endowment Fund
Senior Research Manager (SRM)- Youth Justice
Reports to: Head of Guidance and Policy
Salary: £54,320
Contract: 13-month maternity cover (fixed term contract)
Location: Central London, hybrid* (see p.6)
Closing date for applications: 9pm Monday 6th July
Interview dates: 22nd and 23rd 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.
Violence continues to shape the lives of too many teenage children. In the past year, nearly one in five said they had been a victim, one in eight admitted to carrying out violence themselves, and half told us they had witnessed violence being committed against someone else. This violence takes many forms— from physical and sexual assault to robbery and threats with weapons. And the consequences are often severe. Nearly three in ten victims, equivalent to 5% of all teenage children in England and Wales, needed medical treatment from a doctor or a hospital.
At the Youth Endowment Fund, we work to prevent this violence. To do this, we aim to build the evidence base on what works, and then use this to change policy and practice.
In the first instance, this means producing strong, relevant evidence through research, data analysis and insights into young people’s lives. But evidence on its own isn’t enough. We must use this evidence to promote real change in day-to-day practice and ambitious system reform to better protect children.
About the role
This role is a hugely exciting opportunity to change practice and policy in the Youth Justice sector. Using the vast body of evidence YEF has compiled (including four new research projects that are currently underway), the Senior Research Manager (SRM) for Youth Justice will spend the year writing two reports:
Practice Guidance Report
The Practice Guidance Report will provide 5-8 evidence-based recommendations on how individual Youth Justice Services can prevent children’s involvement in violence. It will be similar in style and approach to previous YEF Practice Guidance in other sectors (such as the education practice guidance, and youth sector practice guidance report). It will likely recommend a range of evidence-based strategies including:
The importance of commissioning evidence-based interventions (detailed in the YEF Toolkit).
How to meet the health needs of children in the Youth Justice System.
How to respond to serious violence and weapons carrying.
How to support the sentencing process.
How to support children in and after custody.
How to ensure effective diversion takes place.
The SRM for Youth Justice will lead the development and writing of these recommendations.
System Guidance Report
Targeted at policy makers and system leaders (including national government and the inspectorate) this guidance report will make 5-8 policy recommendations on how the Youth Justice sector can be reformed to better protect children from involvement in violence. While the practice guidance will focus on day-to-day changes that Youth Justice services can make, the system guidance will focus on how the system itself should be changed to make it easier for Youth Justice services to do ‘what works’. It will be similar in style to the education system guidance. It will likely recommend a range of evidence-based reforms, including:
How to use funding, training and inspection to improve the provision of evidence-based interventions in the Youth Justice System.
How to ensure that other agencies and sectors (such as health and education) effectively collaborate with Youth Justice Services.
How to improve responses to the most vulnerable children and young people, and how to improve sentencing, custody and resettlement.
The SRM for Youth Justice will also lead the development and writing of these recommendations.
Both guidance reports will include as a priority recommendations that will reduce the racial disproportionality currently evident in the Youth Justice System, and you will work closely with a Race Equity Advisor who will play a vital role as a critical friend.
You will also be supported by a brilliant internal YEF Youth Justice Change Team (former Youth Justice practitioners who work within YEF to change practice and policy across the sector), in addition to external expert input from the leading sector experts. This will include liaising closely with the Ministry of Justice in producing both reports. You will also be able to draw from the practice and system guidance reports that YEF has already produced on diversion.
This role is a unique opportunity to change the Youth Justice System and YEF will invest significant resource in making the recommendations that you write happen. For instance, we published our Education System Guidance Report in May 2025. Three of the eight recommendations included in it have already been enacted. We intend to push for practice and system change at pace and will use the work you produce to do so.
The Senior Research Manager will be part of YEF’s Research team. The Research team is at the heart of our efforts to learn what works and put it into practice. We do this by developing the YEF’s funding strategy and creating free, highly accessible research summaries and actionable recommendations for policy makers, commissioners and practitioners. We’re a high-performing team which values intellectual rigour and getting to the truth, compassion for children, ambition about what we can achieve and humility about what we know. We love to discuss the latest developments in research methods, but we’re not just interested in research for its own sake. We want research to lead to actual changes in outcomes for children.
Key responsibilities
You’ll...
Write a practice guidance report for the Youth Justice Sector. This will use the best available evidence (including a range of research that YEF has funded, commissioned, and synthesised) to provide evidence-based recommendations to Youth Justice Services on how to prevent children’s involvement in violence. You will work closely with the internal YEF Youth Justice Change Team, an external expert panel and the Ministry of Justice to produce high quality guidance.
Write a system guidance report for the Youth Justice Sector. This will use the best available evidence (including a range of research that YEF has funded, commissioned, and synthesised) to provide evidence-based recommendations to Youth Justice policy makers and system leaders on how the sector can best protect children from involvement in violence.You will work closely with the internal YEF Youth Justice Change Team, an external expert panel and the Ministry of Justice to produce high quality guidance.
Become the YEF’s expert on Youth Justice. You’ll make sure we understand the key issues, stay on top of the latest research and are connected to the right people.
Read, comment on, and support the publication of four research projects focused on the Youth Justice system concluding in late 2026.These projects, which are currently underway, are reviews of current practice that focus on: Youth Justice responses to serious violence, VAWG and weapons; a review of how community sentences and court orders are used for children involved in violence; a review of custody aftercare and resettlement programmes for children and young adults; and a review of whether the youth justice system is currently meeting the health needs of children within it. Alongside YEF’s existing research (particularly the YEF Toolkit), these reviews will support the development of guidance.
Develop great relationships with experts and represent YEF in external meetings and events. You’ll promote evidence-based policy and practice by speaking at conferences and events.
Work with our Change Team to produce resources and accessible summaries for Youth Justice colleagues on the evidence. This will also include supporting the Youth Justice change team in producing a self-assessment tool based on your practice guidance report.

Casework is at the heart of everything Medical Justice does. We assist vulnerable people in immigration detention to access medical evidence. The evidence we produce forms the basis of our advocacy work to secure lasting change, including our research into the systemic failures in safeguarding and healthcare provision, the harm caused by these shortcomings, and the harmful effect of immigration detention itself on the health of those who are subjected to it.
As a Caseworker you will have your own caseload and be working directly with people in immigration detention, many of whom may be very unwell, traumatised and experiencing deterioration in their health. You will coordinate with our clinicians and, if clients have legal representation, their lawyers, to organise medical assessments. You will maintain communication with your clients throughout this process, acting as a key point of contact.
We are looking for an experienced caseworker, who can use their compassion and organisational skills to support clients in extremely vulnerable situations. We are looking for someone who has experience dealing with clients in crisis situations, who is resilient and able to manage complex, often traumatic, caseloads in a professional and empathetic way. You will play a key role in striving to ensure clients receive access to adequate healthcare and that they obtain high-quality independent medical evidence to progress their legal cases. As well as working as part of a small, dedicated team of caseworkers dealing with around 500 referrals a year.
Location: North London, the role is hybrid with 3 days based in the office each week following the successful completion of probation and training period.
Reports to: Head of Clinical Evidence & Casework
Salary: £33,000 per year
Contract: Permanent, 37.5 hours per week
About Medical Justice:
Medical Justice works to uphold the health and associated legal rights of people in immigration detention and provides medical evidence, so the devastating health harms of detention are understood and acted on. Our paid and volunteer clinicians visit people held in immigration detention, document scars of torture, assess deterioration in health, and challenge medical mistreatment. We use medical evidence to secure lasting change through research, policy work, and strategic litigation. We work with parliamentarians and the media.

Debt Justice is recruiting a Community Organiser to take forward our organising and campaign work in East and South London. This role plays a key part in the campaign to end the UK’s household debt crisis.
The UK is in the grip of a household debt crisis, driven by stagnating incomes, cuts to welfare and a cost of living crisis that forces millions of people into debt to pay for essentials. Over 10 million people are overindebted, with energy bills, council tax arrears and credit card debt approaching record highs. In London this problem is particularly acute, more than half of low-income Londoners are grappling with arrears according to Joseph Rowntree Foundation research. Debt also functions as a key driver of racialised health inequality and injustice. Over-indebtedness affects 28% of Londoners of Black African origin, 24% of Black Caribbean origin, and 22% of Pakistani or Bangladeshi origin.
We believe that campaigns to tackle this injustice should be led by people with direct experience of the problem, that’s why we developed a community organising programme as a core part of our household debt work. Our organisers have supported community based campaign groups made up people with lived experience of debt. From Glasgow to Manchester, these groups campaign for policy changes to bring down over-indebtedness and end the stigma and harmful treatment of people experiencing high levels of debt.
This role will support the development of a new group in South London working with people from global majority communities including black and brown communities – in Lambeth or Southwark, and an existing group in East London based in Tower Hamlets focusing on tackling the rise in council tax debt and bailiff use to collect these debts.
Reporting into our Lead Organiser, this role will play a key part in our household debt campaign; bringing together people from global majority communities that are disproportionately affected to challenge over-indebtedness and bailiff use at a local level and as part of our national and regional campaigns. You will support participants to demand and win policy change to end the use of bailiffs for council tax debt collection.
We recognise that community organising skills are often developed outside of formal roles. If you have experience in organising, campaigns, activism, mutual aid, or informal leadership in your community, we strongly encourage you to apply – even if you have not held a community organiser job title before.
We welcome applications from people from all backgrounds. This role involves working closely with people affected by debt including black and brown communities. We particularly encourage applications from people who are underrepresented in the sector, including black and brown people, women and non-binary people, people who identify as LGBTQIA+ and people who identify as working class or have done in the past.
If you have a question about any aspect of the role, please do get in touch.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
