Job description

The Youth Endowment Fund  

Head of Evaluation (Targeted Projects)

  

Reports to: Assistant Director of Impact, Programmes and Partnerships

Salary: £64,500 

Contract: 12 month – Fixed term 

Location: Central London/Hybrid* 

Application closing: 9:00am Monday 14th October 2024 

  

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.  

Absolutely central to this is designing, commissioning and managing complex and rigorous impact evaluations with experts in the field. The new government has an ambition to halve knife crime within a decade, and we’re anticipating opportunities to work with them to build evidence on new approaches to tackling violence involving children. Your role will focus on creating and making the best of those opportunities. You will: 

  • Serve as a senior member of the team. YEF is buzzing with activity and in order to prevent any bottlenecks, we need to expand our senior capacity. 

  • Run and manage closed calls for complex evaluations commissioned under Targeted Projects. For each of the programmes we work with, we find and appoint independent evaluators. 

  • Expertly manage relationships with key stakeholders. Aside from evaluators, we work closely with other grantees and partners. 

  • Represent YEF at governance meetings and other external engagements. We’re passionate about our mission, proud of the work we’re doing to get there, and we’re keen to share this with stakeholders.  

  • Provide support and counsel to our team of Senior Evaluation Managers and Evaluation Managers. This team closely manages over 35 efficacy trials, over 20 pilot studies and even more in the earlier stages of evaluation. 

  • Tightly manage and quality assure evaluations commissioned under Targeted Projects. YEF has set processes to maintain high standards and rigour. This role will ensure all evaluations adhere to these. 

When applying for this role, please ensure that your cover letter can answer, within a maximum of 1000 words, the following questions: 

  1. Please share why YEF’s mission is motivating you to apply for this role. 

  1. Give clear examples where your experience directly relates to the “About You” section in the JD. 

We aim is to reflect the diversity of the communities we intend to serve at all levels of our organisation and encourage applicants from Black, Asian or other minority ethnic backgrounds.
