Buxton, United Kingdom The Duke of Edinburgh Award Full time

**Who are we?**
- We help young people to build life-long belief in themselves, supporting them to take on their own challenges, follow their own passions and discover talents they never knew they had. Because when you prove yourself that you’re ready for anything nothing can hold you back._
- Do you want to be part of that?_

Our structured programmes of volunteering, physical and skills based challenges inspire, guide, and encourage young people to widen their experiences and learn new skills.

Through a licensing process, we partner with youth organisations and support them in their delivery of our programmes to their young people. These organisations range from schools and colleges to local authorities, charities, secure units, and community organisations.

We have recently launched our new strategy for the next five years, _Youth Without Limits_, which will ensure the DofE is open to all young people aged 14-24 across the UK, and that our participants reflect the most diverse generation of young people ever.

**What is the role?**

**This is a Fixed Term Contract until the 31st of March 2025.**

Working within our values and behavioural framework, the role involves closely managing the relationships of our partner organisations (known as Licensed Organisations - LOs) and ensuring those within your portfolio offer quality and inclusive DofE programmes to young people.

While managing these relationships, across your portfolio area you will also identify and develop new relationships with appropriate educational and community organisations to widen the access of the DofE to young people, particularly those who experience marginalisation.

You will be undertaking regular meetings, in person and virtually, engaging with a wide variety of stakeholders at different levels within different organisations across your portfolio area. When not out at meetings, you will be working from home.

Whilst you won’t be working directly with young people, you will have the satisfaction of knowing that you are having a positive impact on their future opportunities.

**What are we looking for?**

We are looking for a team player who has a passion for the development of young people and who will be enthusiastic, who can engage and influence a variety of stakeholders and who will be an authentic ambassador for the DofE.

You will need to have outstanding communication and interpersonal skills to engage with internal and external stakeholders and have the skills to inspire and influence them to enable young people to participate in DofE.

We are looking for someone who is flexible in their approach, has a positive outlook and who will actively contribute to our team.

**What will you get in return?**

The opportunity to work for a successful and dynamic charity that has the development of young people at its heart and the wellbeing and development of its people constantly in focus.

You will be joining a team of empowered colleagues working together.

From day one we offer excellent staff benefits including a competitive salary, generous pension, 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, paid director days, volunteering hours, Healthcare cash plan, employee assistance programme and an extensive online training programme, plus many more. (based on 35 hours).

**How to apply**

If you feel excited by this role and believe you have the necessary skills and experience to become a valued team member, please go to our website and apply.

**Interviews will take place on w/c 15th April via Teams.**

**Second Interviews will take place: w/c 22nd April in person, venue TBC.**

The DofE are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people. All successful applicants will be required to undergo an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check. (e.g. DBS/PVG or similar), including references, checks covering any gaps of employment/education, confirm the ability to work in the UK and a health check.

The DofE charity works with organisations across the UK to help young people gain essential skills, experience, confidence and resilience to successfully navigate adult life.
