It's a Tuesday afternoon in a school hall in Luton. Multiple Year 9s are sitting in a loose circle, arms crossed, faces doing that thing teenagers do when they've decided nothing is going to impress them. Twenty minutes later, one of them- a boy who hasn't said a word in class all term, according to his form tutor- is on his feet, mid-sentence, telling the room what he actually wants to do with his life. That shift has happened because his Yes Futures coach believed in him, and in turn he now believes in himself.

Who we are

Yes Futures is a youth coaching charity. We put professional coaches in front of young people who would otherwise never get that kind of one-to-one belief and challenge: leadership coaches, life coaches and executive coaches, the kind normally hired by boardrooms. Our flagship programme, Rising Futures, works in secondary schools, where teachers choose the students they believe will gain most from it. That looks different in every school. It might be a student whose confidence has dipped, or one who has never once put their hand up in class. What we give them is the same: someone whose whole job is to believe in them, and the tools to start believing in themselves. 

The programme combines one-to-one coaching with experiential learning days: from pitching product ideas inside a real company on a World of Work day to raft building and rock climbing on an Into the Wild day; experiences many of our students would never otherwise get. 

We're financially stable and growing across London and the South East. This role is part of that growth

Introduction to the role

• Reporting to: Director of Programme
• Contract Type: Fixed term (6 months, with a genuine prospect of extension into a longer or permanent role, based on performance and demand)
• Start Date: 1st September 2026 or sooner
• Salary: £33,500-£37,000 (negotiable within this range) +5% employer pension contribution
• Working Hours: Full-time preferred; part-time considered depending on location and travel (see below) 
• Location and working pattern: Hybrid (Roughly 20% home-based, 10% office-based, 70% travel across partner schools) 
• Travel: The role will require travel across our partner schools and colleges in London and the South East. Currently this is as far west as Reading, south as South London, north as Luton, east as Essex.
  • ​You don't need to be able to cover the whole patch. If you can only serve some of these areas, apply anyway. Depending on where our strongest candidates are based, we may take on more than one person, including part-time, to split the geography between them.

This is not term-time only. It runs across the full contract, not just school terms.

Role purpose

The Programme Delivery Coordinator will be the person on the ground making Rising Futures actuallyhappen: in the room with young people, out on the experiential days that take the programme beyond the classroom, alongside our coaches, and in the relationships with schools that keep everything running. You'll combine direct delivery with the coordination and follow-through that turns a good session into a programme that holds together over months.

There will also be ad hoc demands beyond the core programme- this is a role for someone comfortable with a bit of unpredictability, not a fixed routine.

Key Responsibilities- What you’ll be doing

Delivery

• Deliver Rising Futures sessions and workshops directly in schools, working closely with students, educators and coaches

• Act as the main point of contact for your assigned school cohorts, keeping communication sharp and things running smoothly

• Plan and deliver our experiential learning days: World of Work days inside real employers, and Into the Wild days of outdoor challenge at activity centres

• Support monitoring and evaluation of impact: collecting data and feedback that actually gets used, not filed away

• Capture photos and videos of delivery in action for our reporting and communications

Coaches and relationships

• Support recruitment, selection and onboarding of coaches and volunteers

• Keep coaches equipped and confident to deliver high-quality sessions

• Build and maintain strong relationships with partner schools- the kind that make a partner school want to work with us again next year

Making it run

• Coordinate the logistics of delivery: scheduling, materials, venues

• Keep safeguarding and health and safety front of mind, always

• Handle the administrative side of delivery- records and reporting done properly, not as an afterthought

Who we're looking for

Forget the standard checklist for a moment. What we actually need is someone who can walk into a room of thirty teenagers who don't know you and don't owe you their attention, and have most of them leaning in within five minutes.

If you've done that before- as a teacher, youth worker, coach, facilitator, performer, anything- you probably already know whether this is you.

Person specification 

Essential

• Experience delivering programmes or workshops to young people in educational or youth development settings

• An ability to quickly establish effective relationships based on trust and respect with both children and adults, both within a group setting and one-to-one

• Excellent communication with a wide range of stakeholders: young people, school staff, parents, coaches, volunteers and employer partners, adjusting your style for each

• A proactive, flexible attitude- things will change, and you'll adapt without losing momentum

• Strong organisation and time management- comfortable holding several moving parts at once

• Comfortable working independently and as part of a team

• A passion for Yes Futures' work and a drive to increase the charity's reach

• Willing and able to travel across London and the South East as required, including travelling independently to schools with equipment and resource suitcases

• Proficient computer use, including word processing, spreadsheets and video conferencing

Desirable

• Understanding of safeguarding policy and best practice with young people

• Experience coordinating or administering youth programmes

• Familiarity with impact measurement and programme evaluation

• A keen interest and up-to-date knowledge in education matters and issues affecting young people

What you'll get

• £33,500–£37,000, negotiable, plus 5% employer pension contribution

• A role with real scope to grow- this six-month contract has a genuine chance of extending, based on how it goes and how demand grows

• A working pattern that mixes delivery, home working and office time, rather than being deskbound or constantly on the road

• The chance to work alongside coaches who normally charge boardrooms four figures a day, and see what their skillset does for a fifteen-year-old instead

• Days that don't look like anyone else's job: one week you're in a school hall, the next you're at an activity centre watching a Year 8 conquer a giant climbing wall.

How to apply

Applications are via Yes Futures' Charity Job page. Upload your CV or your LinkedIn profile to Charity Job.

Then, instead of the usual cover letter, we would like you to answer some specific questions, drawing from your experience in your CV/ Linked In profile:

Write us the answers to the following questions drawing from your experience (around 300 words per question):

1. Tell us about a session, workshop or activity you've delivered to young people that you're proud of. What made it work, and what would you do differently now? 

2. This role means building trust with a school one week and a fifteen-year-old the next. Tell us about a working relationship you've built with someone very different from you, and what made it work.

3. Walk us through a programme, event or series of sessions you've run from planning through to delivery. How did you keep the moving parts on track, and what did you do when something changed at the last minute?

We'll also ask one practical question so we can plan geography:

Which parts of our delivery area (London and the South East, from Reading across to Essex) could you cover for regular school days? If you're interested in a part-time arrangement covering part of this area, tell us here. 

Stage 2

If your application progresses to the next stage we will invite you to submit a 30-90 second video answering the following question: 

Tell us about a moment you got a group of young people- or any group- to open up, engage, or believe something they didn't believe five minutes earlier. What did you actually do?

Key dates:

Applications open: 7th July 2026

Applications close: Monday 27th July 2026, 8am

Final interviews: Week commencing 27th July 2026

We're reviewing applications on a rolling basis, so don't wait until the deadline. If we get enough strong candidates before then, we may close early.

Safer Recruitment

Depaul UK is committed to fair and inclusive recruitment, and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds. If a role requires it under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975, we will carry out the appropriate Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS) check. We only look at information that is relevant to the role, and a criminal record will never be treated as an automatic barrier to employment. All DBS information is handled sensitively, confidentially and in line with the DBS Code of Practice, and we encourage applicants to discuss any concerns with us openly.

About Depaul UK

In the 1980s, high unemployment and steep inflation was contributing to a shocking rise in youth homelessness across London. Thousands of young people were sleeping rough every night, with many areas notoriously dubbed “cardboard cities” due to the visible rise in street homelessness. Appalled by the scenes playing out across the capital, a group of people came together to tackle the challenge head on. Led by Cardinal Basil Hume and Mark McGreevy OBE, in 1989 Depaul UK was born.

What began as a single housing project in North London soon expanded across London, Greater Manchester and the North East of England. Today, Depaul UK provides accommodation, prevention and support services to thousands of marginalised young people across the UK each year.

As our name suggests, the work of Depaul UK has been inspired by St. Vincent de Paul – a man who devoted his life to helping vast numbers of people throughout the 17th century. St. Vincent de Paul’s belief in the intrinsic worth of all people and his commitment to taking bold action remain central to our values today. Depaul UK now forms part of a family of Depaul charities around the world. We each focus on the specific challenges in our own countries, but we’re united by our shared values and mission to end homelessness.

Please note this role is advertised by the recruitment agency acting for the client – Not For Profit People.
