YPF Trust are seeking to appoint a Chief Executive Officer, to lead the next phase of the YPF Trust’s development in support of place-based partnerships for children and young people.

This role is a crucial one for the sector; we believe that for too long, children's and young people's services have been overlooked, and young people in England do not have access to the services that are required for them to live the full lives that they should be able to. Importantly we believe that the importance of Place has been ignored and that the passion and drive that is found in local community collaboration is a powerful agent for positive change.

You will have passion for social change and a strong commitment for making the lives of children and young people better. You will be collaborative and inclusive by nature and as comfortable working with small community groups as with Government partners and funders.

The Trust and the Network of organisations that feed into it are broad, and diverse and include people who all want to make this world better for children and young people. If this is you, we would love to hear from you.

ABOUT YPF TRUST

YPF Trust is a national charity that focuses on collaboration in place for children and young people – we know that working in partnership makes children and young people’s lives better.

We support a growing network of over 40 areas across England by providing tools, resources, advice, enthusiasm, and challenge to established, emerging and completely new partnerships.

The YPF Trust originated from work initiated by John Lyon's Charity in Brent in 2014/15. In response to significant changes in local funding and the role of the local authority, John Lyon's Charity invested in local collaboration to sustain and increase investment, maximise resources, and enhance quality and impact – this led to the establishment of Young People’s Foundations or YPFs.

YPFs are locally established, cross-sectoral organisations that seek to sustain and strengthen delivery for children and young people in a specific area, shaped by local needs and ambitions. In practice, they convene and coordinate local services, building the sector's capacity and increasing and shaping investment.

Our vision is that all children and young people are heard and supported to be happy and thrive wherever they are. To make this happen, we believe that every local authority area in England requires a strong and sustainable children and young people’s sector and that effective and meaningful partnership and collaboration between local organisations is central to achieving this.

This is why it is our mission to ensure:

• There is a strong and effective partnership for children and young people in every place that it is needed, sustainably funded according to its specific needs;
• Funders recognise, understand and collaborate with partnerships at an individual and network level;
• National and regional infrastructure bodies work together with local areas (and statutory partners) to provide a coherent offer of support to local organisations

YPF Trust also hosts the Centre for supplementary education (formerly NRCSE) to ensure the continuation of support and guidance to community-led settings offering supplementary (also known as out-of-school) education to children and young people.

Supplementary schools are community-based initiatives to provide additional educational support for children who also attend mainstream schools. They are often geared to provide specific heritage languages, cultural and religious teaching for children from ethnic minorities as well as additional literacy, numeracy, science and homework support.

Working alongside local partnerships YPF Trust supports safe, effective delivery in communities and collaborates with them to raise the profile of community-led activities among mainstream schools and other children’s services.
