Job description

YOUTH PROGRAMME MANAGER (VOLUNTEER ROLE)

Create the activities. Lead the vibe. Change young Londoners’ lives.

URBAN YOUTH is a bold new grassroots youth work charity in inner London, creating vibrant, screen‑free spaces where young people connect with inspiring adult role models, build confidence, and discover who they can become.

We’re building something big, a community, a family, a London-born youth culture rooted in positivity, creativity and belonging.

To make that happen, we’re looking for an inspiring Youth Programme Manager to design, lead and deliver a range of positive youth work activities that get young people off their screens and fully engaged with each other.

WHAT YOU’LL LEAD

As our Youth Programme Manager, you’ll shape the heart of Urban Youth’s offer. You’ll:

  • Create and implement a vibrant programme of youth activities.

  • Design sessions that build confidence, social skills and real‑world life skills.

  • Lead fun, engaging, screen‑free experiences that bring young people together.

  • Support volunteers to deliver high‑quality youth work.

  • Ensure sessions are safe, inclusive and youth‑centred.

  • Bring energy, creativity and structure to every activity.

This is a role for someone who loves youth work, thrives on creativity, and wants to build something meaningful from the ground up.

WHO YOU ARE

We’re looking for someone who is:

  • Passionate about young people and positive youth development.

  • Experienced in youth work, mentoring or group facilitation.

  • Creative, organised and full of positive energy.

  • Confident designing and leading activities.

  • Excited to build a programme that boosts confidence and changes lives.

  • Able to volunteer a few hours a week to make a real impact.

You don’t need to be a senior manager — just someone with youth work experience, leadership instincts and a heart for young Londoners.

WHY JOIN URBAN YOUTH

Because you won’t just run activities — you’ll shape the entire youth experience.

You’ll help create a programme that gets young people talking, laughing, learning and believing in themselves. You’ll build a culture of connection, confidence and community. You’ll join a movement that’s only just beginning.

READY TO BUILD SOMETHING SPECIAL?

Join Urban Youth and help create youth programmes that feel electric, joyful and life‑changing.

 

URBAN YOUTH

Your City. Your Vibe.
