They have a proud 60-year history of helping people who have faced the toughest challenges in life; people who have been marginalised or held back by poverty, violence and exploitation, to build better futures for themselves and their families.
Their approach is informed by the people they serve. The majority of their team have lived experience of the issues their clients face. They have been there, they understand, and they use that insight every day to offer credible, compassionate, and life-changing support. Independent research has shown that for every £1 invested in St Giles’ work, society benefits by £10. That’s impact that transforms lives, families, and whole communities.
As they deliver their ambitious five-year strategy, they are determined to continue growing their reach, impact, and ability to change lives through empathy, trust and opportunity. In order to realise this ambition, they are seeking a new Chief Operating Officer.
Their new Chief Operating Officer will provide strategic leadership and operational management for Finance, IT, Governance and Safeguarding, Central Services (including property & facilities, Health and Safety and Office Management), Data Protection/Information Security, procurement and contract management. They will play a key role in supporting the CEO, Board, and Leadership Team to deliver the charity’s vision and strategic aims, with a primary emphasis on financial leadership.
The St Giles Trust are committed to providing equal opportunities for everyone. They acknowledge that people from certain backgrounds are under-represented within the third sector and are committed to doing what they can to correct this. They especially welcome applications from people with Lived Experience, as this perspective strengthens their services and keeps their work authentic, informed, and impactful.

About us
The Ben Kinsella Trust is one of the UK’s leading anti-knife crime charities. We were set up following the tragic murder of 16-year-old Ben Kinsella in 2008, and everything we do is guided by his legacy. Our mission is to prevent knife crime through education and campaigning.
Ben was a kind, creative young person who loved art, music, Arsenal FC, and making people laugh. He had big dreams of becoming a graphic designer. His death was a senseless act of violence, and the outpouring of grief and public support that followed marked the start of a movement. Ben’s own words, written shortly before his death, called for change, and his voice continues to inspire our work.
Through immersive workshops in our Choices and Consequences Exhibitions and free online resources, we have reached over 50,000 young people so far. Our work challenges myths about knife crime, strengthens peer influence, and sparks meaningful conversations. As we grow, we remain committed to honouring Ben’s life by making a real, lasting difference to young people across the UK.
We’re a small but growing team of 11 (rising to 14), working across Programmes, Fundraising, Communications, Finance and Operations, and Leadership. Our Programmes team is supported by a brilliant pool of freelance facilitators and actors who help bring our workshops to life. We’re now looking for an Youth Programmes Officer to join us at this exciting time. We’re looking for someone who is passionate about evidence-based interventions, thrives in a collaborative environment, and is confident working to establish and maintain relationships with external organisations.
Ben’s legacy is our guide – we exist to stop knife crime
About the Role
We are looking for an education or youth work professional who can deliver our programmes to a very high standard. You will be a skilled facilitator and communicator who can engage with young people from a diverse range of backgrounds. Additionally, we are seeking someone who shares our values and is passionate about using education as a tool to support and empower young people and to stop knife crime.
As Youth Programmes Officer you will be responsible for the delivery and coordination of our flagship knife crime prevention workshops to young people, to a high standard. You will work alongside the Programmes team to ensure workshops at our London exhibitions (currently Islington and Barking & Dagenham) operate smoothly and consistently to serve young people through the achievement of quality outcomes and maximised engagement. You will play a key part in the delivery of our Youth Ambassador Programme and contribute to the development of new programmes and opportunities during an exciting period of growth for the charity.
