About us

The Alliance for Youth Justice is an alliance of more than 70 non-profit organisations advocating with and for children to drive positive change in youth justice across England and Wales. We mobilise our members’ frontline expertise, children’s lived experience, and evidence from research to champion a child-centred, rights-based and trauma-informed system that treats contact with the justice system as a sign of unmet need and systemic failure, prioritises support over criminalisation and gives every child the opportunity to thrive.

Strategic communications (30%) — ensure the reach of our influencing, write high-impact influencing content for our digital channels, and act as first point of contact for media enquiries.

Anti-opressive, anti-racist practice and youth voice run through everything, including involving children and young people with lived experience safely and meaningfully in our work.

About you

You have a proven track record of influencing for systemic change through policy, public affairs, communications or campaigning within a voluntary sector organisation or coalition, and know how to turn complex policy and research into compelling written communications for varied audiences. You have a thorough understanding of the political environment and Parliament, strong relationship-building skills, and excellent project management. You bring a genuine interest in youth justice and the issues facing children in England and Wales, alongside a personal commitment to anti-racism, social justice and child rights.

Do you want to ensure mental health research has a real-world impact?

Can you lead strategic communications that influence researchers, policy makers and the public?

Are you an experienced, values-led communications leader who can support and inspire a busy team?

The McPin Foundation is looking for a Senior Communications Manager to lead our communications function at an exciting point in our growth. This strategic, hands-on role suits someone with excellent communications skills and strategic leadership and communications experience.

McPin is a mental health research charity working to transform how research is done by putting the expertise of people with lived experience at its heart. We believe this makes research more relevant, meaningful and likely to create real-world change. Recent work has included young people’s mental health, digital mental health and virtual reality, inequalities, data sharing and artificial intelligence.

As Senior Communications Manager, you will ensure McPin’s work reaches the right audiences and has the greatest possible impact. You will lead our communications strategy, support influencing and impact work, and help colleagues translate complex research into engaging and accessible content.

You will manage and develop a communications team (two people), oversee consultants for specific projects, and work closely with colleagues, partners, people in our networks and external stakeholders.

You will support delivery of McPin’s communications strategy, strengthen how we capture and demonstrate impact and grow our supporter base. You will bring strategic confidence, creativity and practical delivery skills, whilst working in a way that reflects McPin’s values.

Currently, most staff at the McPin Foundation are working remotely, although office spaces in London are open and available for use. This post will involve a mix of working remotely and working in London.

Rural Media is a Herefordshire-based charity and production company that empowers rural young people and underserved communities to find their voice, develop their creative talent and use digital creativity to drive social change. Through our proven creative participation model, developed and refined over three decades, we support early-career creative talent, young rural people and underserved groups to gain the skills, confidence, and platforms for personal growth and societal change.

Over the next three years, Rural Media Charity will focus on two interconnected strategic priorities:

• Youth Voice & Social Change – Supporting young rural people to drive social change through digital creativity, challenging stereotypes, influencing policy, and becoming leaders and changemakers in their communities
• Early-Career Artists/Creatives & Digital Platforms – Supporting early-career creatives from rural, regional and underserved communities to develop their practice, thrive on digital platforms, and build professional creative careers

Rural Media is looking for an ambitious Strategic Partnerships Manager to build a brand-new corporate partnerships function from the ground up. This is a rare opportunity to shape a role from scratch, backed by our CEO/Creative Director and a Strategic Partnerships Consultant, generating a six-figure income stream that will directly fuel our work with rural young people and underserved communities.

Working closely with our Development Director, Head of Youth Programmes and Head of Production, you'll identify, secure and grow partnerships with businesses who share our commitment to rural equality and youth opportunity — turning first conversations into lasting, mutually valuable relationships with a particular focus on supporting young people not in education, employment or training into real opportunities in the creative sector.

This is a varied role combining prospecting, pitching, negotiation, stewardship and ambassadorial work – whether that's crafting a partnership proposition, presenting to a board, or reporting back to a corporate supporter on the impact of their support.

We're looking for someone who is:

• A proven relationship-builder with a track record of generating income, sponsorship or partnership value.

• Confident engaging and influencing senior stakeholders, including at director and board level.

• Skilled at developing compelling proposals, pitches and cases for support.

• Comfortable managing a varied pipeline from first contact through to signed agreement.

• Excited about widening opportunity for young people and underrepresented communities through corporate partnership.

At Rural Media, you'll join a friendly, ambitious team committed to using creativity to change lives and widen access to careers in the screen industries. If you'd like to help build a new income stream that transforms young lives, we'd love to hear from you.

• Deadline for applications: 9am 10th October

• Start date: Mid-late November

We are committed to equality, diversity, and inclusion, and welcome applications from all backgrounds regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, age, disability, sexual orientation, religion, or socioeconomic background. We particularly encourage applications from underrepresented groups. If you require any reasonable adjustments during the application or interview process — such as accessible formats, extra time, or alternative ways to communicate — please contact Mel and she will be happy to accommodate you.

We are seeking a Monitoring & Evaluation Manager to shape how we monitor performance, evaluate our two-year Impact Programme and use evidence to improve support for children and young people.

The Monitoring & Evaluation Manager will play a key role in strengthening AllChild’s approach to monitoring and evaluation, ensuring we generate robust evidence about programme implementation and outcomes and use it to improve our work. Reporting to the Head of Monitoring & Evaluation, they will oversee core M&E activity and support programme performance management, organisational decision-making and external reporting. They will work closely with Programme Design, Delivery, Systems and colleagues across AllChild.

We are looking for someone with strong analytical skills, excellent project management and communication, and a clear understanding of what robust, high-quality monitoring and evaluation requires. They will be confident working with complex data and solving problems, translating M&E requirements into effective systems and reporting tools, and communicating findings clearly and accurately, including what the evidence can and cannot tell us. They will line manage the M&E Officer and help build a strong M&E function that enables AllChild to understand, improve and demonstrate its impact.
