Speakers Trust is the UK's leading public speaking charity, which delivers training and events to ensure all young people develop the skills and confidence to speak and be heard.
Each year, we work with over 40,000 young people, helping them develop the confidence to share their ideas and stories out loud. Our work transforms lives - every day we see and hear stories of young people who have found their voice and discovered the power of speaking up.
We operate through two key areas: (i) we deliver a national schools programme to more than one in five state secondary schools delivering workshops and events and publishing leading educational resources. (ii) we work with third sector organisations to deliver workshops and events with the joint aims of amplifying youth voice and supporting the financial sustainability of the charity- an exciting growth area that this role will help shape and lead.
The Role
This role is focused on managing and growing our work with other third sector organisations. It focuses on two areas: (i) developing our social enterprise which delivers over 150 paid workshops each year and (ii) delivering youth voice initiatives with other charity partners which amplify young voices. We're creating this new position to drive our strategic mission while enabling our Head of Fundraising to focus on individual giving, corporates, and larger trusts and foundations.
It is an opportunity to craft your own role by using your entrepreneurial skills to grow the charity’s enterprise income and giving you the opportunity to grow with it.
All colleagues are expected to also play a role in supporting Speakers Trust’s broader strategic objectives.

- Drive successful growth in enterprise contribution to the charity's finances through increased net income
- Manage the full commercial cycle from prospecting and enquiry to delivery and invoicing
- Work with our impressive existing client base while actively developing new partnerships
- Match client needs with our established freelance trainer network
Youth Voice Programmes
- Successfully deliver flagship programmes like "My Maiden Speech" - our high-profile, transformative multi-organisation youth voice programme
- Develop and deliver new youth voice initiatives that amplify marginalised voices
- Engage new partners and showcase our transformative work
- Manage events, logistics, and complex stakeholder relationships across multiple organisations
- Maximise the potential of these programmes to generate new funding sources to expand this part of our work.
Supporting Speakers Trust's Broader Objectives
- As part of our collaborative team of 10, you'll also contribute to our success through:
- Supporting fundraising events and activities to help achieve our income targets
- Contributing to events for our schools programme and other initiatives where needed
- Coordinating smaller projects across the charity as opportunities and needs arise
- Supporting the CEO and team with tasks that help make Speakers Trust a great place to work
- Contributing to solutions for the usual challenges faced by small charities - bringing creativity and problem-solving skills
- Representing Speakers Trust at external events and networking opportunities
- Sharing knowledge and expertise with colleagues to strengthen our collective impact
What Success Looks Like
- Sustainable growth in our enterprise workshop programme and net income contribution
- Successful delivery of multiple youth voice programmes and events throughout the year
- New funding streams secured for youth voice initiatives
