About The Young Foundation 

The Young Foundation is a national charity with a long history of innovating to create social change. We are a ‘think and do’ tank, working with people and communities to shape a fairer future, together. 

The UK’s public services are in acute crisis. Political trust is on the floor. The struggles people and communities face are many, and deeply knitted together. Consequently, our mental health is often poor, and our resilience 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 

We are looking for an Innovation Practitioner.

Through our work, we connect with diverse partners to create collaborative spaces for learning and experimentation, to shape a fairer future together and achieve greater social impact. We work with communities, organisations, public systems, and private enterprise nationally, regionally, and locally. We draw on a range of systems change and innovation methods and practices to design and deliver an ambitious, progressive portfolio of work.

The successful applicant will design and deliver programmes for our clients that will support social impact and contribute to The Young Foundation’s mission to shape a fairer future, driving positive change and supporting collective action to improve people’s lives. We are looking for someone who has an interest in the role that business can play in supporting better outcomes for people and communities, and who has a good awareness of the tensions organisations face when balancing financial, environmental and social ambitions.
