New partnerships manager jobs
Who are we?
London Gypsies and Travellers (LGT) is an organisation that challenges social exclusion and discrimination, working for change in partnership with Gypsy, Roma, and Traveller people. We work with families across London Boroughs, including those living on council caravan sites, roadside camps, in bricks and mortar housing, and those experiencing homelessness.
Our Bright Futures programme offers mentoring and skills support to young Gypsy, Roma, and Traveller people aged 15–25 years. Through tailored one-to-one work, group activities and practical help, we support young people to build confidence, motivation and pride in their identity, while developing the tools they need to succeed in wider society.
What are we looking for?
We’re looking for a motivated and organised Youth Project Worker to support the delivery of Bright Futures. This is a varied role that combines project coordination, outreach support, administration, and direct engagement with young people.
You’ll help keep the programme running smoothly behind the scenes while also building trusted relationships with partner services and young people and families, supporting communications, and contributing to learning and reflection.
What will the role involve?
As a Youth Project Worker, you will:
- Support the day-to-day administration of the mentoring and employability programme, including record-keeping and report preparation
- Help coordinate communications activities such as creating new material, WhatsApp updates, and social media
- Maintain and grow referral networks with employers, training providers, and community organisations
- Engage directly with young people and their families to raise awareness and encourage participation
- Hold a light caseload of mentees and support mentoring activities as needed
- Contribute to programme monitoring, evaluation, and learning
What difference will you make?
Young Gypsies, Roma, and Travellers face significant barriers to education, employment, and inclusion, often made worse by discrimination and low expectations. The Bright Futures programme is designed to counter this by helping young people unlock their potential, strengthen their voice, and take pride in who they are.
Your role will help ensure the programme is accessible, responsive, and grounded in the real experiences and aspirations of young people. You’ll play a key part in ensuring our support reaches those who need it most – and that it makes a lasting difference.
What can we offer you?
- A welcoming and collaborative team environment
- Structured induction and ongoing training suited to the role
- Mentoring and support from the programme lead
- Opportunities to develop experience in project delivery, youth work, and community engagement
- Involvement in a unique programme grounded in trust, pride, and culturally sensitive practice
- Reimbursement of reasonable expenses for work related activities
Contract Terms
This is an initial 6-month contract, with continuation dependent on funding and satisfactory performance.
We have strong funding prospects and are currently awaiting decisions on multi-year funding applications, expected within the next 2–3 months. We are committed to continued delivery of Bright Futures and want to bring someone into the team who is motivated to grow with the programme.
Subject to a positive funding outcome and strong performance, we would aim to extend the contract at the earliest opportunity.
Who should apply?
We’re keen to hear from people with a wide range of backgrounds: youth work, community development, education, or admin, or someone with lived experience and a strong commitment to supporting Gypsy, Roma, and Traveller young people.
You’ll need to bring solid administration and digital skills, to help coordinate and deliver the programme effectively.
We particularly welcome applications from people from the Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities.
