Job Requirements/Description

Youth Futures Foundation is the What Works Centre for youth employment. We exist to address the significant disparities in youth employment for marginalised groups. We want to ensure that all young people are able to access and keep good quality jobs.

The problem we are aiming to address is growing. Across the UK,900,000 - 1 in 8 - of our young people are not in education, employment or training (NEET).

The Head of Public Affairs & Stakeholder Relations is a strategic and dynamic leadership position within the Policy and External Affairs directorate.

You will lead and manage our influencing and engagement work with key policy, government, political and wider sector stakeholders. Your role will be essential in fostering and maintaining our corporate narrative and in building relationships that support our organizational objectives.

This role requires a deep understanding of Youth Futures' policy work, our strategic corporate objectives together with the outside policy, political and sector landscape.

The individual needs to have strong organizational and project management skills, excellent communication skills, and the ability to build credibility with senior internal and external stakeholders.

The role will be a permanent job share 24.45 hours a week. Working days will be Monday to Wednesday.

This role can be based at any of our hubs located in London, Birmingham or Leeds and we currently operate a hybrid working model. For more information, please view the Recruitment Pack.
