At The King’s Trust, we believe every young person should have the chance to succeed. We’re recruiting for this critical leadership role at a time when our work is more important than ever, supporting young people to build the skills, confidence and opportunities they need to move forward.

As Head of Delivery for the West Midlands, you will lead teams and partners across a complex region to deliver measurable outcomes for young people. You will translate strategy into delivery at scale, ensuring our programmes consistently reach priority groups and support clear progression into education, employment and enterprise.

Based in the heart of Digbeth, our work supports young people aged 11–30 across Birmingham, Solihull, Wolverhampton, Coventry, Sandwell, Walsall and West Bromwich. You’ll operate at the centre of this, shaping delivery that responds to local need while contributing to national priorities.

You will be accountable for delivery performance across the region, including outcomes, reach and income. This includes setting clear expectations, driving performance, and taking decisive action where delivery falls short. You will also lead relationships across the public, private and voluntary sectors, ensuring high standards of safeguarding, quality and inclusion.

This role suits an experienced senior leader who is comfortable with complexity, driven by outcomes, and able to balance long-term thinking with strong operational delivery.

You’ll thrive if you:

• Lead with clarity, accountability and a focus on measurable outcomes
• Have experience delivering results at scale across multiple locations or partners
• Are confident holding teams and stakeholders to account for performance
• Can prioritise relationships that unlock reach, income and impact
• Use data to actively drive improvement, not just monitor performance
• Are comfortable making difficult decisions to protect quality, safeguarding and outcomes

• Significant experience leading multi-site or regional teams delivering at scale
• A proven track record of achieving and improving performance against KPIs
• Experience leading delivery through partners and stakeholders to achieve measurable results
• Experience using data to drive decisions and improve performance outcomes
• Track record of building accountable, high-performing teams
• Experience translating understanding of barriers facing young people into inclusive delivery

We're committed to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion and want our leadership to reflect the communities we serve. We welcome people who bring different perspectives and experiences, and particularly encourage applications from those underrepresented in our organisation and sector, including candidates from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds.

Why do we need Heads of Delivery? 

Last year, we helped more than 40,000 Young People, with three in four young people on our programmes moving into a positive outcome in work, education or training. The young people we help face a range of challenges, such as unemployment, mental health issues or some who have been in trouble with the law. We believe all young people should have the chance to succeed and that they are the key to a positive and prosperous future for all of us. We want to continue having a positive impact on young people’s lives, and we couldn’t do this without the important work of our Heads of Delivery!

The role
The Domestic Abuse Prevention Worker will undertake individual and group sessions with men and women who are participating in our Domestic Abuse Prevention Programmes (DAPP) or Domestic Abuse Interventions. The purpose of this role is to deliver sessions that support a perpetrator to address and change their behaviour, ensuring they develop their understanding of domestic abuse, as well as it’s impact on others. You will conduct comprehensive needs and suitability assessments. You will support the delivery of face-to-face and online sessions, including two evening group sessions per week. 

As a Domestic Abuse Prevention Worker, you will work with people on awareness raising, developing their motivation to change, ensuring accountability, and prioritising the safety of their partners/ex-partners and any children involved. The Domestic Abuse Prevention worker will work closely with the victim/survivor integrated service to review risk, develop safety plans, and improve outcomes for all parties involved. 

About you
You’ll have a deep understanding of the nature of domestic abuse and its effects on clients and children, as well as the reasons behind abusive behaviours towards intimate partners.

 Your knowledge extends to the range of statutory and voluntary agencies that clients and their children may encounter, and you are aware of the impact of domestic abuse on children and parenting, including the additional needs of clients from BMER communities. 

You will have experience in working with clients on issues of domestic abuse, providing one-to-one and group support and advice, managing your own workload and administration, and assessing the risk and safety of your clients and those connected to your client. You will have handled safeguarding disclosures and referrals, and you communicate clearly with a range of people both over the telephone and in person. 

You will be organised, able to use your initiative, and work effectively as part of a multi-service team. Your administrative skills are strong, and you are adept at using a computer to maintain effective systems. 

Flexible and willing to work evenings, you can travel independently. Additionally, you will have an understanding of trauma-informed practices, risk mitigation, and safeguarding. Experience liaising with social workers and other professionals, and in related areas such as substance misuse, child protection, or family support, is desirable.

Drive is a high risk / high harm domestic abuse perpetration intervention. Its sole aim is to reduce the risk posed by those using high levels of harm towards family members and / or (ex) partners. This is achieved via disruption, diversion and direct behaviour change work, where safe to do so, within a multi-agency framework.

The Case Manager will strive to work one-to-one with perpetrators who have been identified as high risk to pro-actively secure engagement, influence attitudinal and behavioural change and connect with complementary services. To do this, the Case Manager will work with local agencies to design a co-ordinated, strategic individual intervention plan to address identified needs and risks and promote understanding of the impact of abusive behaviours. However, it may not always be safe or possible to meet with the perpetrator. Equally as vital to risk reduction efforts is analysis of presenting information to identify ways to disrupt their abusive behaviour, alongside close-knit multiagency working to implement actions.

Throughout all intervention the Drive Case Manager will work closely with the local IDVA service to review risk, develop safety plans and improve outcomes for all parties involved.

The Case Manager will be responsible for delivering outcomes, working typically for up to 12 months to achieve behaviour change with each Service User.
