Please note that we will not shortlist candidates who do not submit a CV and a supporting statement.

Speech and Language UK is passionate about promoting equality, valuing diversity and working inclusively. We welcome applications from all suitably qualified persons particularly Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic applicants, as these groups are currently under-represented in our workforce.

We are committed to safer recruitment practices and to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children. We expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

This new role will be a core part of the Royal Court team, with a focus on high-quality co-ordination and administration to underpin how we manage and support all our staff, ensure smooth board and governance operations, and establish a positive and effective workplace. The job focuses particularly on managing key HR procedures, systems and records (including recruitment); supporting trustee activity including statutory board meetings and paperwork; and ensuring effective internal communications and administration across all our teams. 

The role will manage a high volume of correspondence, documentation and processes including confidential and sensitive information, meaning strong organisational skills, attention to detail and discretion are all vital. While much of the focus of the role is administrative and procedural, this will also be an unrivalled opportunity for someone early in their career to learn about the internal workings and management of a leading cultural charity, and to be part of shaping our next steps. 

The successful candidate will have: 

• Understanding of and commitment to the progression of anti-racism and anti-oppression in the workplace and through your role.

• Excellent IT skills, including confidence engaging with new systems and trouble-shooting issues.

• Positive, friendly and approachable when working with a wide range of staff and stakeholders at all levels.

• Highly organised with a systematic approach to administrative tasks and the ability to forward-plan and use initiative in managing a busy schedule.

Who we are

UK Youth is a leading charity that exists to ensure all young people are equipped to thrive and empowered to contribute at every stage of their lives. We work with others to ensure that the youth sector is strengthened, supported, and that provision is youth-led, evidence-informed and delivers high-quality outcomes.

UK Youth plays a unique role in addressing; the lack of investment in the youth sector, the lack of cross sector understanding in how youth work makes a difference and the limited opportunities to embed effective solutions.
