Job Details

Youth Futures Foundation is a new organisation that has been set up with £90m of dormant assets to help young people furthest from the employment market into meaningful work.

As an ambitious and independent organisation, the Foundation will collaborate with the youth sector, business, young people and the public sector to support more young people into meaningful employment by identifying and championing what works in order to deliver profound and lasting change.

Chief Executive

Youth Futures Foundation

Based in London (minimum of 3 days a week, able to be located elsewhere remaining 2 days)

£ Competitive

With ambition to deliver real impact, and with significant resources, this is an opportunity to generate change for the most underserved young people. Our Chief Executive will shape and deliver the Foundation’s strategy, identify and champion “what works” and create innovative partnerships with the business sector. 

We are looking for an effective and capable leader who can combine excellent strategic and operational delivery with a commitment to creating an organisation that aims to make a real change in the lives of young people.  With a compelling track record of achievement, you have the experience and personal credibility to develop and maintain relationships across a complex and diverse range of clients, stakeholders and partners including other charities and NGOs, government, businesses and funders. 

You will need to bring experience of managing significant budgets with a track record of successfully managing the accountabilities that go with grant making, commissioning or procurement.  At the same time, you will need to be flexible, pragmatic and comfortable with the ambiguities inherent in building a new organisation.

Most importantly, you will share our commitment to achieving lasting, positive change for young people.

Youth Futures Foundation welcomes applications regardless of sex, gender, race, age, sexuality, belief or disability and particularly would like to encourage applications from ethnic minorities.
