For over 60 years, we’ve empowered more than 7 million young people through hands-on enterprise and financial education programmes. Whether it’s launching a student business or learning how to manage money, we help young people develop key life skills—teamwork, leadership, problem-solving, and resilience.

We’re a passionate, down-to-earth team of 90+ staff and 2,000+ volunteers who believe that every young person, regardless of background, deserves a fair start in life.

However, you'll also be comfortable stepping in with practical operational support when required, helping the team navigate challenges, manage risk, maintain momentum and ensure successful delivery.

Working closely with colleagues across Young Enterprise, you'll use insight and evidence to drive improvement, support the ongoing development of our programmes, and help ensure they continue to deliver strong outcomes for young people.

• Like turning data, insight and feedback into practical improvements.
• Have experience overseeing complex programmes and know how to balance support, challenge and accountability.
• Can prioritise effectively and focus on the activities that will have the greatest impact.
• Build strong relationships quickly and enjoy working with a wide range of stakeholders.
• Are energised by improving services and finding better ways of doing things.
• Want to use your skills and experience to make a tangible difference to young people's lives.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead and develop a high-performing team of Programme Managers, helping them deliver their best work and grow their impact.
• Provide oversight and support across a portfolio of national education programmes, ensuring high-quality experiences for educators and young people across the UK.
• Use performance data, insight and evidence to drive decisions, improve outcomes and maximise impact.
• Provide expert support and leadership when it matters most, helping teams navigate challenges, manage risk and maintain momentum.
• Develop and maintain effective relationships across education, funding and delivery networks to support programme success.
• Help shape the future of Young Enterprise's programmes and services, influencing how we support educators and equip young people with the skills they need to succeed.

A few practical things:

• This is a hybrid role based in London, with a minimum of 8 office days per month
• You’ll have the opportunity to visit some of the participating schools and colleges across the UK

ABOUT TRAIN

TRAIN began as a detached youth work charity, and that foundation still shapes who we are. While our programmes have grown and diversified, we remain committed to working with young people who are often under-served. This includes those who may be facing complex challenges, feeling disconnected from school or support services, or struggling to find their place in the community. Our work is built on trust, consistency and respect, ensuring young people feel seen, valued and able to thrive.

Our vision: every young person should have the opportunities, tools and support they need to create a positive future.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As Didcot Mentoring Lead, you'll focus on early intervention for young people. You'll have the opportunity to help young people with goal-setting, healthy relationships, emotional regulation, educational engagement and making positive choices.

It will be your responsibility to develop and deliver consistent and nurturing mentoring provision across all of the secondary schools in Didcot and the primary schools in and around Didcot, providing young people with the much-needed 1:1 and group support which you will be able to tailor to their individual needs.

You'll ensure that our mentoring provision continues to evolve to meet young people's ever-changing needs. You will build a meaningful rapport with young people through an approach grounded in the principles of informal education, voluntary engagement and consistency.

● Contribute to promoting a culture of equality, diversity and inclusion within the team and across all aspects of youth provision.

● Create and strengthen opportunities for meaningful youth voice in your mentoring sessions and programmes.
