About Young Manchester

For centuries Manchester has led the way as a city of innovators and leaders. It is a city full of diversity, energy and determination with a growing and youthful population.

With world class sporting, educational, leisure and cultural facilities, Manchester leads the way. But it is our children and young people who hold the key to growing that great tradition of enterprise and innovation.

Manchester is booming and yet 1 in 3 children live in poverty and austerity measures have impacted heavily on Youth and Play provision across the city. Young Manchester is a young, vibrant charity committed to making Manchester a world-class city for children and young people, where they are safe, happy, healthy and able to reach their full potential and benefit from the city’s economic growth.

Our work is informed by the ‘Our Manchester’ strategy and UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, and the charity recognises the vital role it plays in ensuring the best prospects and outcomes for all children and young people.

About the role

We are looking for an ambitious, creative and dynamic individual who is passionate about securing great outcomes for children and young people and helping Manchester be the best place to grow up and thrive.

The successful applicant will support Manchester’s ambition to be ‘The City of Social Action’, coordinating and developing work across the city which supports children and young people to play active roles in their communities and shape the future of Manchester.

The City of Social Action supports Young Manchester’s on-going partnership with Manchester City Council, Curious Minds and the #iwill Fund, which places youth social action at the heart of provision for children and young people in the city.

The #iwill Fund is made possible thanks to £50 million joint investment from The National Lottery Community Fund and the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) to support young people to access high quality social action opportunities.

The postholder will also support organisations across voluntary, public and private sectors, establishing strong and active networks and partnerships across Manchester, driving engagement, investment and ultimately impact on children and young people’s lives.

You will also support Young Manchester’s own youth voice work, working closely with our Young Ambassadors to ensure that their voices are heard within Young Manchester and across the city.

There is ample scope for an ambitious, creative and organised person to develop this post and be part of an exciting new charity that puts outcomes for children and young people first.

SUMMARY

The Brick is a charity with big aspirations and its local community at the heart of everything it does. As a result, The Brick follows a strategy and approach focusing on personal development by following The 3 R’s. The 3 R’s are: Relief, meeting felt needs, Restoration, equipping people for self-sustaining, independent living, and Reformation, speaking out and acting against social injustice.

JOB PURPOSE 

We currently have three unique retail sites, with their own characters and USPs. We are looking for a Retail Team Leader to work across two of those sites, working to support our longest standing shop while establishing our newest as a creative high street store. You will work closely with the Retail and Reuse Manager and Shop Manager to provide direction and support to The Brick’s retail shops, ensuring that company policies are implemented and that sales and profit are maximised.

The ideal candidate will be an ambassador and advocate for the mission and values of The Brick and thereby to promote and raise the profile of the Charity.

WE WANT TO:

• Get everyone engaged with The Brick charity – shops are our high street window onto the work we do across the borough with people in hardship, poverty and those transitioning through homelessness.
• Get everyone to work consistently and positively across our retail sites
• Shape the experience of our newest assistants and volunteers into becoming a creative, reliable, effective and productive shop team
• Build our income, donation streams and gift aid take up while making our shops a welcoming space for all our welfare referrals and anyone in need of support

ABOUT YOU

• You have to be an awesome communicator. You’ll be working with people that have no work experience, and some people that have loads. You’ll be working with strong characters, and those that are easily influenced. You’ll need to balance supporting vulnerable people with making money.
• You will need retail experience, ideally in the charity sector, but don’t be set in your ways as you will need to be open to trying new things.
• You have to be friendly, and be able to take a difficult day without breaking. You’ll have to be hands on, as there is no such thing as ‘it’s not my job’ at The Brick.
• You’ll have to be self-motivated, and passionate about making a shop space into a community focal point
• You’ll love re-using stuff. We don’t throw things away, and don’t like spending our limited budgets on stuff that we could upcycle, repurpose or use again.

The Brick is committed to promoting a diverse and inclusive workplace, which attracts all candidates and signals our commitment to celebrate and promote diversity. This includes not discriminating under the Equality Act 2010 and building an accurate picture of the make-up of our workforce.
