You will be joining us in an exciting chapter of our growth with new leadership and recent funding to support a new vision.

Awareness of men’s and boys' mental health is growing in the UK and beyond, and JourneymanUK plays a vital role in supporting teenage boys through mentorship.

This role is both strategic and hands-on, suited for someone with a proactive and resourceful attitude while maintaining a thoughtful and empathetic approach to working with people. Although we anticipate that this role would be suited to someone with experience working with young people, in the youth sector or in the charity and voluntary sector, we are looking for the right person and are open to applications from everyone.

Desirable:

• Experience working with young people in the charity and voluntary sector.

• Community-building experience.

• An understanding of how AI tools might support this role.
