REMIX IS CALLING. ARE YOU READY TO PAINT THE CITY?

London is moving. The culture is shifting. At REMIX, we’re launching a movement that is built on creativity, culture, and community. We aren’t just a charity; we’re a vibe. Based in the heart of Shoreditch, we’re here to smash barriers and empower young voices across the capital.

But to make an impact, we need to be seen. We need a squad of Graphic Designers to help us get recognised, build our brand, and show the world what a trendy, positive, youth-powered movement looks like.

We are especially in need of guides and booklets, social media posts, visual images, business stationery, posters, flyers, info graphics, motion graphics, pull-up banners, branded website images, social media headers/avatars, and other needed items to help us REMIX become a positive change for good.

We’re launching NOW and we need our creative frontline. If you’ve got the skills to make REMIX look as amazing as our mission is, let’s talk.

REMIX | EMPOWER. INSPIRE. TRANSFORM.

As we approach our 30th anniversary in 2028, we are looking for committed new trustees with energy, passion and time who will continue to drive us forward.

Musical talent is everywhere but opportunity isn't: family finances and other obstacles too often get in the way. Young Sounds is here to change this.

For nearly 30 years we've supported talented young people from low-income families, helping them to overcome financial and social barriers. Whether they're making or creating music our programmes help young musicians from across the UK to fulfil their musical potential.

Trustees are expected to engage with and support all aspects of the charity, helping to foster stakeholder relationships, representing the organisation regionally and nationally and ensuring compliance and safeguarding. 

Principal responsibilities are:

• Strategy - contributing actively to the formation of strategy, the Young Sounds business plan, and evaluating the performance of the organisation against the plan.
• Oversight - ensuring that the charity is well run, efficient and compliant with the charity's Articles of Association, its policies, including safeguarding and EDI, governance codes of practice, legal responsibilities and upholding the organisation's reputation and values.
• Advocacy - advocating for the charity at all times, supporting fundraising efforts and promoting the work of the charity in the trustee's daily life.

Requirements:

Previous trustee experience is not necessary, and we welcome trustees who can bring a diversity of life experiences, cultural knowledge and expertise.

As a national charity we are keen to attract trustees from all parts of the UK, and particularly those who are based outside London and the South East.

For this round, we particularly welcome expertise in the following areas:

• EDI and CSR programmes in the creative industries
• Youth culture and content creation
• Music Hub and/or National Curriculum expertise
• Fundraising
• Contemporary music performance and production

Above all we are looking for trustees who are passionate about, and willing to advocate strongly for, giving all young people the opportunity to have a musical life, particularly those facing the most barriers. We also expect trustees to have an overarching commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion.

Please see the Role Information Pack for full details including how to apply.

ARE YOU THE SQUAD’S COORDINATOR?
