About the role
The Policy and Campaigns Lead is responsible for creating and delivering high-impact campaigns to build young women’s visibility, voice and power and achieve changes to policies, practices and attitudes which will bring about an equal world of work for young women.

You will play a critical part in delivering our 23-28 strategy, and will build Young Women’s Trust’s policy expertise and campaigning capability and our alliances with others who can support us to achieve our purpose. 

You will bring a track record of leading campaigns which have demonstrably contributed to policy or other social change. You’ll be passionate about working with people with lived experience to develop policy solutions and campaigns, and will have the ability to build influential relationships and to represent Young Women’s Trust with a range of external audiences.

You’ll be joining the organisation at an exciting time. The Employment Rights Act, which has the potential to improve job security and strengthen rights at work for young women, has just been enacted and there are significant opportunities to influence its implementation to ensure it truly works for young women. Young Women’s Trust has seen a recent growth in our campaigning momentum and political relationships, and we have active networks of young women working alongside us to shape and deliver our campaigns. Over the next 18 months, you’ll have the opportunity to take us to the next level – turning our increased profile, evidence, and supporter base into genuine impact for young women in low-paid and insecure work.
