Help turn ambitious plans into real opportunities for young people.

At The King’s Trust, we are working on new ways of supporting young people into employment in a challenging world – and we need someone to help us make this happen across the UK. Someone who can bring people together, cut through complexity, and build the right foundations so great ideas turn into real impact.

As our Delivery Mobilisation Lead, you’ll be that person -  taking new opportunities and ideas and turning them into something teams can actually deliver on the ground.

This is an exciting opportunity to shape how new employment opportunities are launched, driving consistency, quality and real impact at scale across the UK.  You'll work closely with colleagues across delivery, programme design, fundraising and finance to ensure programmes are delivered effectively, giving young people access to the support, skills and opportunities they need to thrive.

This is a great role for a leader who enjoys building things from the ground up, improving our offer to young people, and seeing their efforts translate into real-world impact at scale.

In this role, you'll:

• Lead the mobilisation of new programmes and opportunities, turning strategy into successful delivery.
• Bring teams, partners and stakeholders together to drive alignment and results.
• Identify and solve challenges, often at pace, to enable us to be successful
• Use insight, feedback and data to continuously improve delivery.
• Build confidence and capability across teams as they adopt new ways of working.

We're looking for someone who:

• Has experience launching programmes or services from planning through to delivery.
• Is an exceptional organiser who can manage multiple priorities and deadlines.
• Can influence and engage senior stakeholders with confidence.
• Enjoys solving problems and driving continuous improvement.
• Is passionate about creating opportunities for young people.

If you're excited by the challenge of being part of our mission to end youth unemployment, making a lasting difference to young people's lives — we'd love to hear from you.

What happens next?  

Please submit a CV, and Cover Letter that includes your experience, transferrable skills and motivation to work for The King's Trust! The Team will be in touch about the next steps shortly after the closing date. 

Why do we need Delivery Mobilisation Leads?

About The Refugee Council

The Refugee Council is the nation’s refugee charity. Together with community groups, partners and volunteers, we help people who have escaped war and persecution to rebuild their lives, integrate into communities, and play their part in Britain. Born in the aftermath of World War II, our frontline services support over 14,000 refugees each year to find safety, get to know their neighbours, and enter education, training or work. We share our evidence and expertise with policymakers to help build integrated communities where everyone can contribute.

We have offices across the UK where our Services teams provide support to refugees at the local level.

Inclusion and Accessibility

Ensuring that the Refugee Council is an inclusive and accessible place to work is important to us. We want to enable people from different backgrounds to apply and thrive with us. We believe our recruitment process enables that and are also happy to make adjustments on request.

Our Values

Our values underpin everything we do:

• Inclusive: We are inclusive. We work with – not for – refugees and people seeking asylum so they have an equal voice, co-producing projects and ensuring their expertise and experiences are at the heart of what we do.
• Collaborative: We are collaborative. Working with others is a priority in order to have the collective impact that is vital to achieve policy and practice reform.
• Courageous: We speak out when we see injustice, cruelty and unfairness. We always stand up for what we believe is the right thing to do to transform the experiences of those seeking protection in our country.
• Respectful: We are respectful of all those we interact with. We treat everyone – our staff, volunteers, beneficiaries, partners and people we disagree with – with the same respect, professionalism and understanding. 

About the Role

The Senior Trust Officer is responsible for securing and managing significant income from charitable trusts and corporate partners to sustain and grow the Refugee Council’s services and advocacy work with and for refugees and people seeking asylum. Managing a portfolio of high-value trust and corporate partner relationships (independently up to £250,000 and supporting the wider philanthropy team for applications over £250,000), the role prepares compelling applications, pitches and reports, cultivates long-term partnerships, and ensures timely stewardship that reflects the organisation's impact and values.

Working closely with colleagues across Services, Finance, and Business Development, you will develop strong cases for support and new funding projects, aligning donor interests with organisational priorities and future service design. By combining excellent relationship management, persuasive writing, and sound judgement, the Senior Trust Officer ensures that trust and corporate fundraising contributes effectively to organisational sustainability while upholding the Refugee Council’s mission of dignity, compassion, and fairness for refugees and people seeking asylum.

Staff Benefits

To reward our staff for the value they bring, we offer a variety of enhanced terms and conditions and a wide range of benefits, including:

• Training & Development
• Employee Assistance Programme 
• Pension Scheme 
• Work/Life Balance Policies 
• Employer-Sponsored Volunteering
