Let's make every day a chance to create a brighter future for the next generation!

Would you like to be part of the coolest team in town, collaborating with our Outreach and Marketing legends and our friendly customer service team here at The King's Trust? Together, we'll ensure that our young people get onboarded and engaged in our programmes safely and with style.

Dive deep to uncover any barriers that stand in their way, helping to remove those barriers to enable them to shine and propelling them on their journey towards amazing outcomes. Responsible for a group of young people, for one-on-one support and guidance or just gently pointing them in the right direction.

You’ll also be the guiding light for our delivery partners and service providers as we want them to deliver the best experience and outcomes for our young people. High-fives all around! Roll up your sleeves and deliver employability sessions directly to our incredible young people. You'll also help our Delivery Partners and volunteers do the same, both in person and virtually through our trusty MS Teams. When we're doing things face-to-face, you’ll need to hit the road and be there in person to help with programme delivery or programme visits to make sure all is running as smoothly as possible.

And if that’s not enough to keep you busy, you’ll also be keeping meticulous records of information and data on our young people, volunteers, and partners. It's all about making sure every step of their journey is accurately reflected in our systems so that it complies with our funding contracts.

We are a massive advocate of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion so it would be amazing if you could lead the charge in creating an environment where everyone feels seen, by implementing a local action plan that supports our big-picture EDI goals. Let's make positive change happen!

Be ready for anything and everything. Alongside all these fantastic responsibilities, you might find yourself wearing different hats and rocking them like a pro, this could even include deputising when the need arises.

About Climate Cymru

Climate Cymru (https://climate.cymru/) is a movement of thousands of individuals and a network of over 380 organisations from all sectors in Wales, brought together by shared values and a recognition that the climate and nature emergencies require urgent, fair action. We believe that action should be guided by science and the voices of people across Wales. Climate Cymru is hosted by the Welsh Centre for International Affairs (WCIA). WCIA is a charity that inspires people in Wales to learn about and take action on global issues. WCIA’s vision is that everyone in Wales contributes to creating a fairer and more peaceful world.

About Imagine Action

Imagine Action is a project born out of a shared concern about an escalating culture war, increasing polarisation in society and the need to adapt to a much more distributed, evolving information ecosystem. Imagine Action helps communities across Wales redefine public narratives, inspire climate action, reduce social polarisation, and counter misinformation. It reframes climate action from a false narrative of sacrifice to one of collective opportunity, presenting locally relevant, values-driven stories rooted in fairness, unity, and community well-being. The concept was co-created over 2 year period by the Climate Cymru movement and the voices of communities around Wales. The work is based on cutting edge communications principles as well as the latest narrative and social change research. A pilot project designed a set of tools that makes cutting-edge narrative and communications principles easy to use. Imagine Action will upskill and train groups, organisations and networks around Wales to use these tools to tell their stories in a compelling, human and relatable way. The initiative connects grassroots voices with decision-makers, amplifying local stories and strategically placing stories to drive change and redefine public and political narratives. Partnerships with the network of 380 organisations, artists, researchers, and changemakers enhance the reach and resonance of these stories, embedding them within broader cultural and political frameworks.
