You don’t need to have worked in youth employment or the charity sector before, but a commitment to our mission and good understanding of the barriers to work faced by young people from low-income backgrounds is essential.

This is an experienced hire role, and we’re looking for someone with solid professional experience, including some prior experience managing or mentoring others, who can apply sound judgement and hold real ownership in a fast-moving environment. You don’t need to have a degree.

Programme ownership and delivery.

• You have a track record of independently planning and delivering a programme or project end-to-end, setting your own milestones and adapting when timelines or expectations shift.
• You’re comfortable managing multiple priorities at once, and delivering to a high standard in a fast-paced environment.

Line management and development of others.

• You’re someone others can turn to when they need guidance, particularly in areas where you have stronger knowledge or experience.

Strategic thinking and problem solving.

• You can think creatively, spot where a system, process or piece of delivery isn’t working, and take the initiative to improve it.
• You respond positively when things don’t go to plan, and can manage both the day-to-day detail and the bigger picture.

Communication and facilitation.

• You have excellent written and verbal communication skills, with good attention to detail.
• You’re confident facilitating workshops and delivering training yourself, and able to help less experienced colleagues build their own confidence in the room.

Relationship building.

• You’re comfortable building relationships with a wide range of people, including partners and volunteers, and representing the organisation in a warm and professional way.
• You’re able to build trusting relationships with young people. You approach others with empathy, warmth and good judgement.

Resilience and a growth mindset.

• You can operate well in uncertainty, learn as you go, and stay motivated through challenges. Adaptability and perseverance are crucial to the success of the young people on our programme, and it’s important that our team models these behaviours too.

We work with a diverse group of young people from underserved communities. We encourage applications from candidates from minoritised ethnic backgrounds, and those who have lived experience relevant to our programme - particularly non-graduates and those from lower socioeconomic backgrounds.

How we work 

We’re a small but fast-growing team. You’ll join our staff team (and office dog, Annie) working day-to-day in the business, but will also engage with young people, our funders and partners, our Board, and many of the amazing volunteers who help us deliver our programme.

We use Slack, Notion and Claude day-to-day to keep in touch and support our work across the team. Our team works together in-person at least three days a week at GoodWork HQ, our beautiful space on Warren Street in central London where we host events, deliver training and work with our community.

You’ll need to be able to attend occasional in-person events, including possible evening sessions for which time off in lieu will be given. You should also expect to attend regular in-person meetings with our London-based partners.

Background information

About us:

National Voices is the leading coalition of health and social care charities in England. We have more than 200 members covering a diverse range of health conditions and communities, connecting us with the experiences of millions of people. We work together to strengthen the voice of patients, people with Lived Experience, unpaid carers, their families and the voluntary organisations that work for them.

Our mission:

We advocate for a more equitable and person-centred health and care, shaped by the people who use and need it the most.

We do this by:

- Understanding and advocating for what matters to people, especially those living with health conditions and groups who experience inequalities

- Finding common cause across communities and conditions by working with member charities and those they support

- Connecting and convening charities, decisions makers and citizens to work together to change health and care for good.

Our five-year strategy:

In September 2024 we published a new five-year strategy that was co-produced with our staff, our member charities, our Lived Experience Partners and our key stakeholders. This set out three clear goals:

- End unequal access
By addressing the barriers experienced by those facing the worst outcomes, we will find solutions that improve care for all.

- Transfer power to people and communities
As a leader in co-production, we will help communities to work with system leaders at national and neighbourhood level to make big decisions together. This will maximise the skills and capabilities of patients, ensuring care is truly person-centred.

- Shift the measures of success
By campaigning for better patient experience and outcomes metrics, we can ensure that what matters to people becomes the key measure of success for the NHS.

In the first two years of the strategy we have already made big strides. For example, our work encouraging the Government to focus on “getting the basics right” has seen major policy initiatives designed to fix access to primary care and the 8am rush. Similarly, our work on the experience of waiting for elective care has seen the introduction of the first ever set of minimum standards for waiting.

Our work on the 10 Year Plan, and on the Quality Strategy, has also seen both patient experience and outcome measures given much greater prominence in how the NHS judges success and National Voices has now been commissioned by NHS England to help design the future of patient feedback mechanisms.

We have also successfully campaigned for funding formulas to be revised to enable the NHS to directly address the inverse care law and tackle the impact of health inequalities head on.

But there are challenges ahead, not least the role patients and communities play directly in co-producing improvement. With ICBs under huge financial pressures, and so much change in the health and care system, we need to make sure every piece of work we deliver is of the highest quality and adds real value. This is the only way to help others across the sector understand the value that people with Lived Experience offer to problem solving processes and creating better and more inclusive solutions.

International Nepal Fellowship (INF) is a Christian health and development charity. Since 1952 they have had a huge impact serving the most disadvantaged people and communities in Nepal.

As Nepal’s longest serving international NGO they continue to have ambitious plans. It is an exciting time to join INF as they enter a bold new strategic phase for 2026 to 2031.

The most disadvantaged communities in Nepal face a lack of access to healthcare, often walking for days to their nearest health post, or being unable to afford even basic treatment.

Kopila, who was diagnosed with leprosy several years ago, is a patient at INF’s Green Pastures Hospital in Pokhara, Nepal.

“Whenever I have to come back to Green Pastures I am grateful that all of the treatment is free, and I am happy because everybody there cares for me and loves me.”

We are looking for a Supporter Engagement Officer to join INF’s small, passionate UK team. This is a fantastic opportunity to connect with INF’s committed UK supporters who resource and pray for the work of Nepali organisations which support people to overcome the barriers they face due to issues such as disability, poverty, gender or caste.
