YEF Detached Youth Work Project Lead
Relationships change lives.
At M13 Youth Project, we believe every young person deserves trusted adults who believe in them, walk alongside them and help them discover who they are, what they have to offer and the difference they can make. For over 30 years, we've built those relationships through detached youth work - meeting young people where they choose to be, listening deeply and creating opportunities for belonging, belief and hope.
We're now looking for an experienced Detached Youth Work Project Lead to join our team and play a central role in one of the UK's most ambitious detached youth work research pilots.
M13 is leading the Greater Manchester consortium delivering the Youth Endowment Fund (YEF) Detached Youth Work Pilot. The Pilot aims to build a strong evidence base for researching detached youth work, combining outstanding frontline practice with rigorous evaluation to shape the future of youth work nationally.
Reporting to the Founding Director, you'll provide the day-to-day leadership of M13's delivery of the pilot. You'll lead a small team of detached youth workers, coordinate operational delivery across intervention neighbourhoods and ensure the project is delivered safely, consistently and in line with the YEF Shared Practice Model and research requirements.
This is first and foremost a practice leadership role. You'll spend much of your week out in parks, streets and neighbourhoods, building trusted relationships with young people through high-quality detached youth work. Alongside this, you'll supervise and support colleagues, oversee monitoring and reporting, build positive relationships with community members and partner organisations, and, together with the Founding Director, work closely with the Centre for Evidence and Implementation (CEI) and consortium partners to ensure the successful delivery of the project.
We're looking for someone who is an experienced detached youth worker, confident leading others and passionate about relational practice. You'll be organised, reflective and proactive, with experience of supervising staff, coordinating projects, maintaining high-quality records and working collaboratively with partners. Most importantly, you'll share our belief that relationships are the foundation for meaningful change.
This is a 35-hour per week, office- and community-based role. (M13's full-time week is 37.5 hours). Your week will include six detached youth work sessions (three afternoons and three evenings), alongside team leadership, partnership working, supervision, monitoring and project coordination. Some flexibility can be offered around when office-based work is undertaken, where operationally possible.
In return, we offer a supportive, reflective and values-led working environment, regular supervision, ongoing professional development, a generous employer pension contribution, TOIL for out-of-hours working, additional Christmas gift leave and the opportunity to contribute to nationally significant research that could shape the future of detached youth work.
If you're an experienced detached youth worker ready to combine excellent frontline practice with leadership, learning and innovation, we'd love to hear from you.
Please submit your CV together with answers to the five questions below, limiting your response to 250 words per question. Please do not exceed the word limit as doing so may affect the scoring of your answers. We encourage you to use examples from your own practice, explaining not only what you did, but why you made particular decisions and what you learned.
We use a blind recruitment process to help ensure fair and equitable recruitment. Applications will be shortlisted against the Person Specification, so please demonstrate how your skills, experience and values meet the requirements of the role. We welcome examples from paid or voluntary roles, and recognise that many skills are transferable.
We exist to be a consistent, trusted presence in communities experiencing deep-rooted inequality.

You will help operationalise these across the programme, developing and refining the practical methodologies, tools, measures and resources needed to generate and capture community insight, lived experience, programme activity and quantitative data consistently, ethically and meaningfully.
Working alongside the Anti-Racism Strategic Lead and with the Co-design Lead, Community Engagement team and Global Majority communities, you will develop and test culturally grounded, accessible and innovative ways of gathering evidence and understanding change. You will explore creative and participatory approaches that work for different communities, while ensuring the evidence remains robust and useful for analysis and Bhip’s wider evaluation requirements.
As Bhip develops, you will bring different forms of evidence together to identify patterns, test assumptions and evaluate emerging approaches and system-practice tests against Bhip’s Theory of Change, logic model and programme and organisational outcomes. You will provide analytical and evidence support to the Anti-Racism Strategic Lead, while working across the wider REN and HHU Bhip team to ensure evidence informs learning, accountability, programme development and system change.
You will help turn what we learn into accessible evidence, resources and learning for communities, Bhip colleagues, partners and decision-makers, ensuring communities can see how their insight was used, what action followed, what changed, what did not change and why and contributing to learning across Bradford and the National Collective.

About Gambling Harm UK
Gambling Harm UK (GHUK) is a lived-experience-led public health charity working to prevent and reduce gambling harm. Formerly Gambling Education Network, we are independent of the gambling industry and funded by public money, which we take seriously.
We are in Year 1 of a two-year national programme. Our two largest contracts are with the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities (OHID) and NHS England, and we expect to add further contracts and grants as the charity grows. We are a small team where every role matters, and good financial management directly enables our mission.
The opportunity
This is a new post. You will be the person who keeps our finances accurate, our payments properly controlled, our contracts monitored and our funders confident that public money is being used well. You will report to the CEO, work day to day with the Director of Operations and our Bookkeeper, and have a direct line to the Treasurer and the Chair of our Audit & Risk Committee.
It is a hands-on role with real ownership of the numbers, the contracts and the controls. Two days a week is enough to do it well, and we are flexible about how those days are worked.

• Prepare and submit funder claims and financial reports accurately and on time
• Flag financial or contractual risks and make sure they are acted on
• Give the CEO and Director of Operations early warning of expiry and renewal dates
Bookkeeping assurance and controls
• Work with the Bookkeeper so every transaction is recorded and coded to the right fund, project or funder
• Monitor and report on restricted funds
• Maintain financial controls, procedures and audit trails, and support the annual independent examination
• Identify control weaknesses or irregularities and escalate them
Procurement and compliance
• Support procurement in line with our policies, including quotations and documentation
• Monitor supplier performance, spend and compliance
• Keep financial and contractual records complete, accurate and secure
• Support compliance with Charity Commission requirements and contribute to the risk register where finance or contract risks arise
What we are looking for
Essential
• Experience of financial administration, bookkeeping, management accounts or a similar finance role
• Experience of monitoring budgets and expenditure
• Good understanding of financial controls and procedures
• Experience of contract, grant or supplier management
• Strong numerical and analytical skills, with a high level of accuracy
• Well organised, able to work independently and manage competing deadlines
• Good written and verbal communication skills
• Confident with Microsoft Excel and standard office systems
Desirable
• Experience in a charity or not-for-profit organisation
• Knowledge of charity accounting, restricted funds and funder requirements
• Knowledge of Charity Commission requirements
• Experience of contract monitoring or commissioned services
• Experience of accounting software such as Xero, QuickBooks or Sage, and of online payment or expenses platforms such as Apron
