Support is prioritised for young people from disadvantaged backgrounds aged between eleven years and twenty-five years, and on evidence-based charity programs that enable young people to succeed in education and have the chance of securing meaningful employment.

The Sir Peter Rigby Charitable Trust is Sir Peter’s newly established personal charity.  The strategy for the Trust is in development, with current support focussed on partnerships with two leading UK universities. 

The Executive Director oversees both The Rigby Foundation and The Sir Peter Rigby Charitable Trust, and is now looking to create a small dynamic team to include a Partnerships Manager and Administrator.  The Team will work closely together to ensure that Rigby Foundation funded programs enable the best possible outcomes for young people in the West Midlands, and that The Sir Peter Rigby Charitable Trust facilitates Sir Peter’s giving strategy once this is confirmed.

• Administering and processing all donation payments
• Responding to all internal and external requests for information

• Offering broader administrative support to the Executive Director.

The role requires substantial experience of governance, Trustee support, financial admin, managing diaries, meetings and travel as well as offering broader admin support wherever needed.

The person:

The successful candidate will have substantial experience of providing broad administrative support to an organisation ideally in the charity, grant-making or education sector. Helpful, organised and resourceful, this person will be able to juggle multiple tasks, to prioritise effectively and to plan ahead to meet deadlines.  A great communicator, this person will also be a real team player, proficient in all MS Office packages including Excel and Powerpoint with solid experience of having worked as a PA or similar type of role.

About Beyond the Streets

A wonderful opportunity exists to join the energetic, friendly, and talented Beyond the Streets staff team, dedicated to achieving the aim of living in a UK where women aren’t compelled to sell sex; free from coercion, violence, poverty, and other abuses. We also work towards the aim of ensuring that those that are involved in selling sex can access effective services without experiencing barriers such as stigma, a lack of understanding, and judgemental attitudes.

The charity formed over 20 years ago, and we’re now a leading specialist within our theme. Beyond the Streets works in 2 key areas:

1) Direct Support: We provide direct support for women involved in selling sex via two frontline services: 1) Beyond Support, based in Southampton (a national remote telephone service offering long-term 1:1 support with trained Women’s Support Worker); 2) Door of Hope, based in east London supporting women involved in selling sex on street via street outreach, drop-ins, advocacy to gain/maintain access to services, 1:1 Psychotherapy sessions, and 1:1 long-term support

2) Impact Work: We run training courses for third sector / statutory professionals to increase awareness and educate on women’s support needs. In partnership we produce research and resources and reports, involving lived experience voices, to support better access to services for women and encourage systemic change. We also host an affiliate network of 30+ organisations nationwide.

About the role…

• to be a self-motivator as well as keen collaborator, who enjoys working within a team and thrives on achieving goals
• to be a creative thinker, who is solution focused, with a natural attention to detail

Sometimes, research shows that particularly women will not apply for a job if they don’t meet all the criteria. Therefore if you’re interested in the role but only meet some and not all the criteria, we’d love for you to apply! You may be the person who is the best fit for our team and this role; we wouldn’t want you or us to miss out!

All those that are shortlisted and invited to interview will receive a pre-interview pack that will include an introduction to the friendly interview panel and the list of questions that they will be asking.

Genuine Occupational Requirement (GOR)

Due to nature of this role involving engaging with women around the subject of violence against women, this post is restricted to female applicants under Section 9 of the Equality Act 2010.

You’ll enjoy…

At Charity People, we match charity needs with the skills and experience of candidates, irrespective of age, disability (including hidden disabilities), gender, gender identity or gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, or sexual orientation. We do this because we know greater diversity will lead to even greater results for the charities we work with.

Within this varied role you will also be responsible for:

• Strategic and operational leadership, ensuring ENT UK meet their strategic aims.

You will be a Mental Health Deputy Manager who is passionate about supporting MAC-UK’s objective of working collaboratively with young people, innovating services and systems and their approach to mental health, to address health and social inequalities. We aim to support services to be more accessible, flexible and responsive to excluded groups, and to change the systems that lead to and maintain inequality.  This role is ideal for someone who is  looking to apply their proven management and therapeutic skills alongside the area of social action. 

We are very excited to be part of a pilot service, new in England working as part of a consortium of four organisations, alongside Lambeth Council. This will be a residential support service for young people aged 16-24 years at risk of serious youth violence, who are already caught up in the criminal justice system and at high risk of remaining part of the system.  You will be working across three London properties alongside a large multi-agency staff team made up of experts by experience/profession in psychology and therapy; youth work; offending; education, training, and employment (ETE) and housing. The service will work creatively and holistically to enable young people to exit environments involving youth violence, identify and reach their goals and aspirations, move on successfully to appropriate independent living, and importantly to sustain this life.  Wherever possible staff and young people will co-produce what this service looks like and what activities the young people engage in.

The deadline for expressions of interest is Wednesday 20th November 2024 at 5pm. 

Stage 1 interviews will take place on Tuesday 10th December 2024 and Stage 2 interviews will take place on Tuesday 17th December 2024.

The Young Ealing Foundation’s vision is to ensure all young people in Ealing can access the opportunities and support they need to grow up and lead happy and safe lives, fulfil their potential and become a valued and listened to part of the local community. We work towards this by working with and in the community to empower small, local charities to thrive and flourish in order to enable sustainable, high quality service provision for children and young people and promote great youth work in all its forms.

As a small, place-based charity, we often find ourselves responding in dynamic ways to local need, whether of the children and young people in Ealing, or the grassroots charities who form our membership. This role would suit someone who gets excited about approaching opportunities in innovative ways and moving quickly to enact these. 

Our Ealing Young Champions programme has been developed over the last four years, and we have secured multi-year funding to run projects designed to engage and empower local young people to advocate for practical solutions to address the issues that they and their peers face. Whilst a core group has been established over time, the way the project is run will be set by the successful applicant according to their own experience of working with young people.

We are also about to begin an exciting new project, taking over a local Library and developing it as a hub for services for children, young people and families in Greenford, alongside a core library offer for the local community. The appointed person will be instrumental in engaging with local young people to ensure they have a say in how the building and services within it are developed.

Main Purpose of the role:

1. Manage the planning, recruitment and delivery of our Ealing Young Champions Youth Voice project

2. Advocate for and embed youth voice into the work of partners, stakeholders and members and identify new opportunities to develop youth voice and co-production programmes

3. Work with colleagues to set a strategy for embedding co-production in YEF’s organisational practice

4. To provide project management and support on youth engagement with the Greenford Library project
