The Youth Endowment Fund
Head of Change – Health
Reports to: Director of Change, Youth Endowment Fund
Salary: £67,900 per annum
Location: Central London or remote
Contract: 2-year fixed term – potential to extend. Open to 0.8 FTE for the right candidate
About the Youth Endowment Fund
We’re here to prevent children from becoming involved in violence. We do this by finding out what works and building a movement to change things.
In recent years, violent crime involving children has increased. This is a tragedy. Every child is an important member of our community and society has a duty to protect them.
The Youth Endowment Fund (YEF) is a charity with a £200m endowment that exists to prevent children from becoming involved in violence. We will achieve this by finding out what works and building a movement to put this knowledge into practice. A big part of the movement that we need to build is in the world of health. We need to inspire and connect with health leaders across Integrated Care Services (ICBs), Local Health Boards (LHBs), Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) and other relevant parts of the system. We need to spread what works and make our country safer for some of our most vulnerable children. We are looking for someone to lead on making this happen.
Key Responsibilities
We are making progress building the evidence of what works within and around health services to reduce violence. But the big risk is that nothing changes. That’s where you come in. Your role is to identify the best way to make change happen within relevant health services. Your main responsibilities will be ensuring that:
We have great relationships with the people who can make change happen.
This will include:
- Developing great relationships with senior policy makers, sector leaders and experts, including representing YEF in external meetings and speaking at events.
- Build a Strategic Advisory Board of leading experts across the health sector and keep members onside and excited about our work.
- Manage excellent Strategic Advisory Group meetings. You can read more about our Education Strategic Advisory Group here.
We deliver the health system recommendations.
This will include:
- Helping to identify the right recommendations at a system level (such as changes in policy, regulation, inspection, funding, or guidance) that make it more likely highly vulnerable children get access to the right support at the right time.
- Creating and delivering a plan to deliver the health system reforms, working closely with leaders to make the change happen.
- Tracking progress carefully, being thoughtful and creative about when and how to change the plan.
We work out the most effective ways to connect people with the evidence, then making those things happen.
This will include:
- Helping health leaders change how they plan or provide services to better protect children from violence, based on our Practice Guidance.
- You can read our first guidance for school, college, and alternative provision leaders here.
- Creating a plan to get people to follow our guidance, using what we know about how they think and behave.
- Continuously testing and improving our approach to get better results.
As a senior member of staff in the organisation you also:
- Build a culture where it is natural to perform well and support colleagues brilliantly.
- Contribute to setting the strategy, delivering results, and building and modelling the culture that we need to succeed.
About You
You are this sort of person:
- You know how to make change happen. You combine analytical sharpness with emotional intelligence and real-world experience. You understand why people resist change – and how to move them through it. You’re curious about human behaviour and what drives decision-making.
- You bring deep experience of the health system. You’ve worked at a senior level in or with health services – potentially commissioning support for young people at risk of or involved in violence. You understand how ICSs, LHBs, CAMHS and other health leaders think, and know how to navigate and influence within the system.
- You communicate complex ideas clearly. Whether speaking or writing, you break down complicated concepts in ways that make sense to different audiences – without oversimplifying. You bring clarity where others bring jargon.
- You get things done. You’re organised, delivery-focused, and produce high-quality work, even under pressure. You work independently and to a high standard.
- You build trust and connect with people. From government ministers to youth workers, CEOs to 15-year-olds – you know how to listen, build rapport, and make people feel heard. You’ve led meetings, made strong introductions, and bring people with you.
- You think big and adapt fast. You’re a strategic thinker who can see the big picture without losing sight of the detail. You’re logical, creative, and open to challenge – always testing and refining your ideas.
- You understand young people. You get what life can be like for vulnerable young people and you understand the systems and organisations around them. Ideally, you’ve seen this first-hand, whether professionally or personally.
- You’re committed to equity, diversity, and inclusion. Not just in theory – but in how you work, who you listen to, and what you prioritise.
You must have this sort of experience.
- Delivering concrete change in practice or systems that improved children’s lives.
- Leadership experience in the health system. You’ve worked at a senior level in or with health services – potentially in commissioning – and you understand how to navigate and influence within these complex systems.
First-hand knowledge of the system that supports highly vulnerable children, particularly those at risk of or involved in violence. This includes children with conditions such as conduct disorder, psychosis, substance use disorder, ADHD, developmental language disorder, and traumatic brain injury. You understand the barriers these children face and what it takes to get them the right support.
While it’s not a criterion, we are especially interested to hear from applicants who have lived experience of violence affecting young people.
It’s also important to us that the people we hire do not discriminate. We believe in being inclusive and giving everyone an equal chance to succeed. Applications are welcome from all regardless of age, sex, gender identity, disability, marriage or civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, religion or belief, race, sexual orientation, transgender status or social economic background.

We are looking for a Family Support Manager who is passionate about making a real difference for families of children and young people with disabilities. This is an opportunity to lead a dedicated team, expand our support services, and make sure that no child or young person is left without the vital care they need due to a lack of resources or support.
You will have the chance to bring fresh ideas, develop new ways of working, and strengthen our support pathways.

About Tree of Hope: ‘Bridging The Gap’ in Children and Young People’s Healthcare
Tree of Hope is a UK children and young people’s healthcare charity dedicated to helping families secure the funding and support they need for their seriously ill and disabled children. Since 1992, we have been a vital source of guidance and assistance for families, empowering them to access medical treatments, therapies, and equipment that are not freely available through the NHS or social care.
In October 2024, Tree of Hope launched our new three-year strategy, ‘Bridging the Gap’, to tackle the growing challenges families face in accessing the care their disabled children need. With over 1 million children in the UK living with disabilities and 40% of families with disabled children living in poverty, the need for support has never been greater. Far too many families are falling through the cracks.
‘Bridging the Gap’ is our commitment to tackling this. Our strategy is focused on expanding our reach, improving access to funding, and building stronger community networks so that more families can secure the vital treatments and support they need sooner. We are determined to make sure that no family is left behind.
Why Join Us
At Tree of Hope, we believe that every family should have equal access to the healthcare they need. To make that happen, we have built a team that is guided by our values of Respect, Dedication, Integrity, Compassion, and Collaboration. These values shape everything we do, from how we support families to how we work together as a team.
We believe that great work should be celebrated. Through our Kudos platform, team members recognise and appreciate each other's contributions every day. Our Annual Staff Awards go even further, shining a light on everyone’s contribution over the year. We also make time to connect and reflect with regular team meetings, socials, and two Away Days each year, opportunities to share ideas, strengthen relationships, and plan for the future.
Your wellbeing matters to us. We are committed to creating a supportive and caring work environment. That is why we actively use Wellness Action Plans, an Employee Assistance Programme, and a Healthcare Plan through the Hospital Saturday Fund. We also invest in your growth, offering a training and development budget to help you thrive and develop in your role.
At Tree of Hope, you will be part of a team that genuinely cares, celebrates success, and works together to make sure that no child or young person is left without the support they need.
Whether you have experience in family support, health and social care, disability services, or a related field, we welcome applications from those committed to making a difference.
