Change Lead for Youth Justice

3 weeks ago


London, UK, United Kingdom YOUTH ENDOWMENT FUND CHARITABLE TRUST Full time

We’re here to prevent children from becoming involved in violence. We do this by finding out what works and building a movement to change things. We need to inspire and connect with youth justice services across England and Wales to spread what works and make our country safer for some of our most vulnerable children. We are looking for someone to lead on making this happen.

We are making good progress building the evidence of what works within and around youth justice to reduce violence, with new Practice Guidance and implementation resources due next year on diversion, mentoring and sports programmes. But the big risk is that we publish these resources and nothing changes. That’s where you come in

Key responsibilities include:

Working out the best way to make this change happen by getting more senior leaders within youth justice to use our Guidance, toolkit, research and implementation tools to inform day to day operations and strategic decision making.

Creating practical tools and resources that help leaders put evidence into action.

Supporting the scoping and commissioning of behavioural insights research to support effective evidence mobilisation plans and strategies.

About you:

You understand the youth justice sector. You really understand how youth justice services work, from Heads of Services to frontline officers. You have experience working in/with youth justice, ideally in a role that worked with young people who are vulnerable to or involved in violence. You might have previous experience of supporting a youth justice to reflect on and adopt evidence-based practice.

You are fascinated about change and are experienced in making it happen. You have outstanding analytical judgment alongside the emotional intelligence and experience needed to identify the right opportunities for change, then make them happen. You understand why people find change difficult. You come alive talking about how people make decisions and why they do the things they do.

The wide salary range reflects our flexibility to tailor the role to the right candidate’s experience, with the exact responsibilities and leadership level decided during the interview process.
