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).

We are looking for a Senior Manager – Policy, Government & Evidence Generation. This is a key role for Youth Futures Foundation as a What Works Centre. Reporting to the Head of Public Policy, but working closely with Evaluation and Public Affairs colleagues, this is a unique role, sitting at the intersection of our policy, government relations and evidence generation work.

You will lead and manage our work in two key macro areas:

  1. Evidence generation opportunities – Engaging with national and local government on evidence generation partnership opportunities, working with the Evidence and Evaluation team to identify new opportunities and supporting the brokerage of trials to test interventions to support marginalised young people.
  2. Regional policy – Managing our policy work with regional and local government across the youth employment agenda.

This role can be based at any of our hubs located in London, Birmingham or Leeds.
