Just Treatment is excited to be hiring a Youth Mental Health Organiser to work alongside our Senior Youth Mental Health Organiser and young people directly affected by the youth mental health crisis.

Just Treatment is a growing patient-led campaign fighting to ensure everyone gets the healthcare they need by demanding that the government acts to put patients before corporate profits. We believe the only way we can achieve these changes is by building a movement of those directly affected by the problem to challenge the power of the pharmaceutical and health industries. We have a track record of high impact campaigns that have changed the lives of the people we work with, and thousands of NHS patients, by forcing corporations and politicians to move.

Our approach is centred on deep organising with a cohort of patient leaders who have been directly impacted by the health injustices on which we campaign.

This role will be focused on our campaign strand around the crisis in young people’s mental health, focused on the role that late-stage capitalism is having on both the drivers of poor mental health, mental illness, and madness, and the ineffective responses to this crisis.

The role has two distinct parts: providing administrative support that facilitates the work of the Senior Youth Mental Health Organiser; and identifying and developing the leadership of young people directly affected by these health injustices and their families, building trusting relationships that ensure they are able to shape the strategy and lead the campaigns that win tangible improvements in the mental health and wellbeing of the people we are campaigning with and for.

You will work with key external allies to coordinate and multiply our campaigns, and ensure there are meaningful actions volunteers and supporters can do to further our campaign goals . You’ll love working as part of a collaborative, small team and you’ll thrive on building trusting relationships with the people you work with. And you’ll be committed to taking on David Vs Goliath fights for justice.
