Here, you'll have the opportunity to learn new skills, thrive in our collaborative environment, and take your career in different directions.

And because we believe in supporting you now and in the future, this is a place to plan for your future—with access to both Defined Contribution and Defined Benefit pension schemes through salary sacrifice, helping you save more efficiently. We also provide life assurance at three times your salary for all colleagues, giving you added peace of mind.

This is an 18-month Fixed Term Contract and a full-time role, at 35 hours a week.
About Us
Save the Children UK believes every child deserves a future. In the UK and around the world, we work every day to give children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. When crisis strikes, and children are most vulnerable, we are always among the first to respond and the last to leave. We ensure children's unique needs are met and their voices are heard. We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach.
The SUN Civil Society Network (SUN CSN) is part of the global Scaling Up Nutrition Movement, which unites governments, UN agencies, donors, civil society, and the private sector to end malnutrition in all its forms. The SUN CSN Secretariat is hosted by Save the Children UK and supports 5,000+ civil society organisations across 67 countries. A flagship initiative within our work is the Youth Leaders for Nutrition programme, which supports young advocates to lead change in their communities and influence policy and accountability at national and global levels.
About the role
This role is ideal for someone passionate about youth engagement, creative resource development, and global civil society collaboration.
As Youth Participation Adviser (Grants & Strategy Support), you will collaborate with young people and civil society partners globally to co-create pilot tools and resources that enable the scaling up of youth participation through the Youth Leaders for Nutrition programme.
In this role, you will:
• Capture learnings from our existing program to inform the design of the next phase for the program.
• Co-develop:
• Toolkits to strengthen meaningful youth engagement at the national level across our global network.
• A youth inclusion checklist for SUN Civil Society Alliances (CSAs).
• Safeguarding guidance and training resources in collaboration with Save the Children UK's safeguarding team.

• Develop creative and impactful ways to gather, analyse and present stories and data from the Youth Leaders for Nutrition programme to support strategy and fundraising.
• Work directly with regional advisors, national alliance leaders and other SUN stakeholders to ensure multi-stakeholder alignment at every level.
• Occasionally represent the SUN CSN Secretariat in internal and external meetings, helping to shape the youth engagement strategy for 2026–2030.
About you
To be successful, it is important that you have:
• The ability to connect naturally with young people, understand their needs, and confidently lead both group discussions and one-on-one conversations.
• Experience in youth mobilisation, campaigning, advocacy and/or communications.
• Experience in small grant management including distribution, due diligence, monitoring and reporting.
• Strong skills in developing resources, building capacity, and identifying or responding to learning needs.
• A creative and proactive approach to problem-solving and content development.
• Comfort working across diverse cultural contexts and a strong commitment to inclusive practices.
• Experience managing multiple relationships and partnerships, ideally including collaboration within this UN movement and civil society colleagues from the global level to the grassroots.
• Commitment to Save the Children's vision, mission and values, and the SUN Movement Principles of Engagement.
What we offer you:
Working for a charity provides one of the best benefits there is – a sense of purpose and reward for helping others. However, we understand the importance of giving back to our employees to ensure a happy and healthy working environment and work/life balance.
• We focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health and wellbeing both in and outside of work.
• We provide a wide range of benefits which will reward your hard work, motivate you, and inspire you to work to improve the lives of children every day.

This will be agreed with your Line Manager and team and is intended to be time spent on collaborating with colleagues and relationship building.
Please note: travel costs to your contracted office will be at your own expense.

Save the Children UK believes in a world that is fair, inclusive and equitable where all children have the opportunity to change their world. We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think.
We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT+ or in an LGBT+ family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world.

About Us: The Woodland Trust is the UK's leading woodland conservation charity and is dedicated to creating a world where trees and woods thrive for both people and nature. Our mission involves engaging and inspiring individuals to contribute toward tackling the nature and climate crisis through the protection, restoration, and creation of essential woodland habitats.
Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion: To achieve our vision of a world where woods and trees thrive for people and nature, we need to better reflect society and the communities we work in. All people, no matter their background, identity, ability, or circumstance, should benefit from trees.
People of colour and disabled people are currently under-represented across the environment and conservation sector. If you identify as a person of colour and/or disabled, we particularly encourage you to apply.
Please contact us to discuss any additional support or adjustments you may need to complete your application.
Application Advice: For fairness we keep our candidates’ personal details hidden from the hiring managers, so they do not see your CV until shortlisting is completed.
Make sure that you complete the Personal Statement to show your relevant skills and passion for the role.
Acceptable Use Policy - Artificial Intelligence (AI): We understand that candidates may choose to use AI tools to support their job applications-for example, to help structure or edit written responses. We welcome the use of AI in this way, particularly where it helps improve accessibility, such as for neurodivergent applicants. However, we ask that any information submitted reflects your own experience, skills and understanding. During interviews, candidates are expected to respond independently without the use of AI tools.
Apply Now: If you're ready to make a difference and grow with us, send in your application today. We might close the job opening early if we get a lot of applications, so it's a good idea to apply soon. If we do close the advert early, and you have an application in process, we will email you prior to closing to give you time to complete.
