About Us

Ranger Cadets is a new, independent, non-profit uniformed youth organisation with a bold mission: to engage young people in their communities, equip them with essential life skills, and unlock their full potential. We are non-political, non-religious, and proudly inclusive – open to all, regardless of background.

We believe every young person deserves the chance to shine, to belong, and to grow into the leaders of tomorrow.

  • Develop and implement systems for governance, safeguarding, and compliance.

  • Support programme delivery, volunteer management, and organisational growth.

  • Work closely with the CEO, trustees, and senior volunteers to ensure strategic goals are achieved.

  • Champion efficiency, clarity, and inclusivity across all operational areas.

Who We’re Looking For

  • A proven organiser with experience in charity operations, youth work, or community development.

  • Strong skills in planning, systems design, and operational management.

  • Excellent communication and problem-solving abilities.

  • Passion for youth empowerment, social mobility, and community impact.

  • Commitment to our values: non-political, non-religious, inclusive, and open to all.

What You’ll Gain

  • The chance to shape the operational backbone of a national youth organisation.

  • The opportunity to leave a lasting legacy for young people across the UK.

  • A role that blends structure, impact, and community service.
