  • Making Participation Visible: Use social media, newsletters, and events to showcase youth involvement and invite more young people to get involved. You’ll also coordinate surveys and feedback to show the impact of their voices
  • Creating Safe, Inclusive Spaces: Ensure every activity is welcoming, respectful, and aligned with safeguarding best practices. You’ll promote diversity and inclusion in everything you do
  • Tracking Impact: Monitor engagement, gather feedback, and report on progress using YMCA Norfolk’s systems—helping us continuously improve how we involve young people

Requirements:

  • Youth-focused experience: You’ve worked directly with young people, especially those facing challenges, and know how to support their growth and leadership
  • Confident facilitator: You can lead engaging workshops, spark meaningful conversations, and create inclusive, empowering spaces
  • Strong communicator: Whether mentoring, presenting, or posting online—you’re clear, creative, and inspiring
  • Organised and adaptable: You manage multiple priorities with ease and stay focused on what matters most: youth voice
  • Values-led: You’re passionate about inclusion, safeguarding, and giving young people real influence
  • Team player: You collaborate well and are excited to help embed youth participation across the organisation
What we offer:
  • Health Care Plan
  • 34 days (pro rata) per annum inclusive of Bank and Public Holidays
  • An additional day of annual leave (pro rata) awarded after 5 and 10 years of continuous Long Service
  • Access to contributory stakeholder pension scheme after 3 months
