People’s Health Trust is a national charity working with local communities across Great Britain to stop people dying too young, help them live longer, healthier lives. and make health equal.

Life expectancy rose for a hundred years, but in the last decade it has gone backwards — with the steepest declines in the most disadvantaged areas. Across Great Britain, people in these neighbourhoods die up to 13 years earlier than those in the wealthiest places.  These inequalities are driven by changeable factors such as poor housing, low-paid work, and limited access to good education, clean air and natural spaces. People’s Health Trust exists to end this unfairness and ensure everyone has the chance to live a long, healthy life.

Our work focuses on:

· programmes supporting people living in the most disadvantaged neighbourhoods to address the conditions that make them unwell — from poor housing and limited access to advice services, to a lack of natural space and pathways into good work.

· using data, evidence and community expertise to design solutions, not just restate problems. Our work improves health and wellbeing from cradle to retirement.

· our lived experience network – made up of over 600 grassroots leaders from across England, Scotland and Wales – works directly with us to share evidence of the impact that poor housing, low income, poor jobs and poor education have on the lives of their communities, as well as timely and cost-effective solutions.

With a strong interest in social justice, the Programmes Associate will support the delivery of the Trust’s programmes and influencing work – supporting the management of new programme development and launch, as well as holding a portfolio of live grants

Experienced in grant management, you will be skilled in managing projects alongside supporting a portfolio of funded partners and managing grant application processes.  You will also bring with you experience of using grant management systems.

This role is offered either as an employment or secondment opportunity.  If you would like to discuss this as a potential secondment, please do get in touch.

If this sounds like the role you are looking for and you feel you have the skills and experience we need, full details of the role and how to apply are at the link above.

The Role

The Programmes Manager (Education) leads DTL’s schools work, owning the relationships, logistics, and outcomes that sit at the heart of our education offer. This is a delivery role with real breadth: you will manage a national programme of training events, lead on school recruitment and retention, and ensure the programme generates the evidence base that sustains its long-term funding.

You will be the main point of contact for subscribing schools, working closely with the CEO and Head of Partnerships. You will represent DTL’s schools work to funders and external partners, and contribute to the strategic development of the programme over time.

While the Digital Ambassador Programme is currently grant funded for three years, DTL’s intention is for the programme to become financially self-sustaining through school subscriptions, and this role is central to achieving that. As the programme grows, so will the scope of this post and the team to support it.

This is an office based role (flexible working considered) from our Brighton office which will involve some travel.

The Digital Ambassador Programme

The Digital Ambassador Programme is DTL’s flagship schools initiative. It trains staff and student Digital Ambassadors in schools across the UK, equipping them to lead on digital safety from within - and to escalate harmful content directly via DTL’s trusted flagger network.

This model creates both a faculty lead to manage complex reports from young people and also a student lead who will be able to provide peer-to-peer support to their fellow students, ensuring that students who may not wish to report directly to the faculty will still have a reporting mechanism. 

Key Responsibilities

Programme delivery

• Manage all delivery phases from set up through to annual review, in line with the agreed delivery plan.
