We need you because the team are busy helping to give life changing opportunities to young people across the country. With seven large-scale youth centres (Youth Zones) set to join their existing network of 15, the organisation will soon be reaching more young people than ever before.

You will also develop your own portfolio of national funding prospects and opportunities that may also include ‘Charity of the Year’ and fundraising events.
Success will be defined by how ‘above and beyond the grant terms’ engagement is with national partners and how they recognise themselves as an active part of the difference the team are making to over 55,000 young people.
