Job description

URBAN YOUTH IS LAUNCHING....

AND WE NEED FOUNDERS, NOT JUST VOLUNTEERS!!!

URBAN YOUTH is a brand‑new, street‑level youth work charity with a big vision and bold energy. We’re a start‑up with heart, hustle, and a mission to show up for young people exactly where they are, on the streets, in estates, in parks, in the places most people overlook.

We’re building something powerful from the ground up. And we need people who aren’t afraid to roll up their sleeves and help us get off the ground ASAP.

This is your chance to shape a youth charity from day one.

WE’RE RECRUITING TRUSTEES WHO WANT TO BUILD, LEAD & CREATE IMPACT

We’re assembling our first leadership team, the people who will help set the tone, the culture, and the future of Urban Youth.

We’re looking for:

  • Chair

  • Deputy Chair

  • Treasurer

  • Deputy Treasurer

  • Secretary

  • Deputy Secretary

You don’t need years of board experience — you need passion, commitment, and the drive to help a start‑up charity grow fast. If you have an entrepreneurial, go getting spirit, then you would be perfect.

WE ALSO NEED SKILLED, CREATIVE, COMMUNITY‑DRIVEN PEOPLE WHO CAN HELP US LAUNCH

If you’ve got experience in any of these areas, we need you right now:

  • Fundraising & Grant Writing — help us secure the fuel that powers our mission.

  • Creative Industries — designers, filmmakers, musicians, digital creators, storytellers.

  • Community Connectors — people who know the streets, the networks, the culture, the people.

If you can bring energy, ideas, or influence, you’ll fit right in.

WHO YOU ARE

You’re excited by the idea of building something new. You’re motivated by purpose, not titles. You believe young people deserve spaces where they’re respected, supported, and inspired. You want to be part of a movement that’s vibrant, real, and rooted in community.

WHY JOIN URBAN YOUTH NOW?

Because this is the moment everything begins.

You won’t just join a charity, you’ll help create it. You’ll shape our direction, our culture, our impact, and the way we show up for young people. You’ll be part of a team that’s bold, creative, and unafraid to do youth work differently.

This is your chance to leave a legacy.

 

READY TO HELP US LAUNCH?

If you’re feeling that spark, that “I want to help build this” energy, then we want to hear from you.

Let’s build something unforgettable for the next generation.
