You will embed and scale evidence-based practice across employer networks to create systemic change in how employers recruit, develop and retain young people.

This role suits someone skilled at translating strategy into delivery — influencing employer behaviour and embedding Youth Futures’ evidence into employer practice.

  • You will bring experience of driving behaviour or practice change through partnerships, combined with a passion for tackling youth unemployment and a strong interest in equity, diversity and inclusion issues.
  • You will need solid relationship-building and collaboration skills, and the ability to manage people and performance to deliver measurable impact.
  • An understanding of how inclusive employment practices and workplace cultures can improve outcomes for young people — particularly those facing disadvantage.

This role can be based at our Birmingham, Leeds or London hub. We currently operate a hybrid model of two-days per week in the office and three-days from home.
