Purpose of the job

 The Evaluation & Learning Manager will work closely with the Assistant Director of Research & Impact and internal/external colleagues. You will help the organisation make good decisions and influence others – informed by the best available evidence, analysis of the charity’s impact, learning from organisations, youth practitioners and young people.

This will involve conducting research in-house, as well as managing external research partners. You can also expect to have line management responsibility for a direct report and should work closely with other members of the Impact Function to improve our ways of working and meet the organisation’s system change ambitions.

 The Impact Function will not evaluate programmes in isolation but rather help to build a cumulative knowledge base that proves and improves the impact of UK Youth’s activities and youth work more generally. Learning and knowledge management is a major component of this role and you will ensure that insights are easily understood and applied to have real world impact.

Experience we're after

• Significant experience of using quantitative and/or qualitative and/or mixed research methods to conduct evaluations of interventions in community settings

• Significant experience of managing projects and coordinating effectively with internal and external stakeholders

• Experience of working with large datasets and conducting descriptive and inferential data analysis

• Experience of using qualitative research methods with young people

• Experience of working with external research and/or evaluation partners

• Experience of supporting others to use data and evidence to inform their decision making through creative and persuasive comms, engagement and dissemination.

  Who we are

  UK Youth is a leading charity that exists to ensure all young people are equipped to thrive and empowered to contribute at every stage of their lives. We work with others to ensure that the youth sector is strengthened, supported, and that provision is youth-led, evidence-informed and delivers high-quality outcomes.

  UK Youth plays a unique role in addressing; the lack of investment in the youth sector, the lack of cross sector understanding in how youth work makes a difference and the limited opportunities to embed effective solutions. These factors lead to mass inequality of access to youth services for young people. To find more about us and how we make an impact, please visit UK Youth Website.
