The UK’s public services are in acute crisis. Political trust is on the floor. The struggles people and communities face are many, and are deeply knitted together. Consequently, our mental health is often poor, and our resilience is weakened. We must be prepared to unravel and reweave for the common good.
That requires working together in new ways, empowering radical acts of co-creation across communities, sectors and boundaries. For The Young Foundation, this is a moment to embody the spirit of our founder, Michael Young. To embrace collective effort and work collaboratively to show that, with the Power of Participation, we can redesign the social contract between people, communities, state and business to shape a fairer, greener future.
About the role
To provide professional administrative support to the corporate resources team including diary management for the CEO, minute-taking for the board and committees, and HR and finance administrative tasks. Training and support will be provided if required for HR and finance tasks. A detailed job description and skill requirements can be found in the recruitment pack.
