Job summary including context 
Young Women’s Trust champions young women on low or no pay. We’re here to create a more equal world of work and raise young women’s incomes. We tackle sexism and misogyny, with and for anyone who has experienced this.  

We offer young women free coaching, feedback on job applications and information to help them get where they want to be. We bring together a thousands-strong network to support each other, build their self-belief, and have their voices heard. We work with young women and anyone who experiences misogyny and sexism to campaign for equality in the workplace. And our research provides insight into what young women’s lives are really like, fuelling our campaigns for change.  

These are not easy times to be a young woman. The rights and freedoms previous generations fought for can feel up for grabs – sexism is growing louder, online abuse is on the rise, and too many young women are still held back by low pay, insecure work and unequal caring responsibilities. At Young Women's Trust, we believe it doesn't have to be this way, and we're growing our fundraising ambition to match the scale of the challenge. 

You will lead a newly united fundraising programme that has brought together corporate partnerships, major donors, and trusts & foundations - an area that already contributes over 80% of our fundraised income. You'll strengthen existing relationships and secure new partnerships to support our mission: creating a more equal world of work and increasing young women's incomes.

Director – Jamma Wellbeing

Build the model. Prove the impact. Scale through partners.

Jamma Wellbeing is looking for an exceptional Director to lead the organisation through its next stage of development.

This is an opportunity for an experienced, entrepreneurial leader to bring their judgement, experience and vision to work closely with a passionate Founder and Board to shape the future of an ambitious wellbeing charity.

Jamma Wellbeing exists to empower people so they can navigate life with greater confidence and choice. At the heart of our work is Brain Smart®, a practical wellbeing education framework that makes complex psychological ideas understandable and useful. Brain Smart is already being delivered through partnerships in prisons, schools, communities and workplaces.

We now want to build on that foundation.

The opportunity is to help build and deliver Jamma Wellbeing’s future model: delivering a sharper strategy, developing a strong operating model, building the right partnerships and creating a sustainable route to greater impact.

For the right person, this is much more than a conventional charity Director role. It is a chance to help build an organisation capable of changing how practical wellbeing education is delivered — taking useful, evidence-informed ideas to more people through trusted partners.

The role

The Director will lead Jamma Wellbeing from its current stage into a focused, sustainable and scalable organisation.

You will work closely with the Founder and team, while having real responsibility for translating ambition into delivery.

Key priorities will include:

• turning Jamma's strategy into a clear and executable plan;
• developing Brain Smart and its supporting infrastructure into a compelling, partner-ready proposition;
• building and leading high-quality partnerships across primarily education, public services, communities and other relevant sectors;
• establishing a sustainable income model, including licensing, partnerships, grants and public-sector opportunities;
• personally leading important early partner relationships and negotiations;
• building a small, capable team and network of specialist support;
• strengthening the systems required for safeguarding, quality assurance, accreditation, evaluation and reporting;
• creating clear measures of impact and using evidence to determine where Jamma should invest, adapt, expand or stop; and
• representing Jamma credibly with partners, funders, commissioners and other senior stakeholders.

Commercial responsibility is an important part of the role. We want to increase Jamma's reach and impact, but to do so in a way that is financially sustainable and protects the quality, integrity and safety of the programme.

Who we are looking for

We are looking for a builder.

Someone who is energised by creating something that does not yet fully exist, who can see the big picture but is equally comfortable turning ideas into plans, decisions, partnerships and measurable results.

You are likely to bring:

• significant senior leadership experience in an organisation that has grown, transformed or developed a new operating model;
• a strong track record of turning strategy into delivery;
• experience developing significant partnerships and generating revenue;
• strong commercial judgement, including propositions, contracts, financial management and senior-level negotiation;
• experience building teams, systems or capabilities in an evolving organisation;
• confidence working with Boards and senior stakeholders;
• strong financial literacy and a disciplined approach to priorities, investment and performance; and
• a well-developed network across the UK, including relationships across the private, public and/or philanthropic sectors.

Experience in education, youth, health and wellbeing, charities, social enterprise or public-sector commissioning would be valuable, but we are equally interested in strong leaders from outside the traditional charity sector who are attracted by the opportunity to apply their experience to social impact.

Experience of licensing, accreditation, train-the-trainer or another partner-led scaling model would also be an advantage.

The kind of leader who will thrive here

You will be commercially astute but purpose-led; ambitious but pragmatic; collaborative but prepared to make decisions.

You will be comfortable working in an organisation where not everything is already established.

Most importantly, you will care about creating something useful and enduring — an organisation capable of improving wellbeing, particularly for young people, at meaningful scale without losing the simplicity, quality and humanity at the heart of its work.

About Jamma Wellbeing

Jamma Wellbeing is a registered charity with a simple vision:

A future where understanding and shaping your wellbeing is a basic life skill for everyone.

We work through trusted organisations and partners to bring practical wellbeing education to the people and communities they already serve.

Our emerging model is deliberately designed for scale: Jamma develops and improves the programme, materials, accreditation, safeguarding, quality and evaluation framework, while partners bring the audience, setting and trusted local delivery capability.

If you are excited by the opportunity to help shape an organisation, build a sustainable model and create meaningful impact at scale, we would like to hear from you.

Please apply with your CV and a covering letter (max 2 sides A4)

Interviews by video, will take place on the 16th, 17th or 18th September and if successful, a second in person interview will take place during the week commencing 5th October in Surrey.
