Thank you for considering working with us at LTSB!

Our Programme Managers are the main point of contact for young people on our social mobility programmes. The main focus of the role is the recruitment, development and support of young people into meaningful careers.

Programme Managers create recruitment networks in their areas and lead bootcamps to improve their employability (e.g. interview techniques) and to enhance their personal and leadership abilities (e.g. critical thinking). Once young people are hired, Programme Managers use their established relationship to provide pastoral care and in-work support.

LTSB’s vision is: a world where all young people can choose their careers, with an emphasis on improving the lives of young people from disadvantaged backgrounds. The successful candidate will have a proven commitment to improving the lives of young people from disadvantaged backgrounds, and they have an excellent understanding of social mobility, diversity and inclusion issues, and how these factors impact young people.

Location

LTSB does not have its own offices, so you will work remotely within central London, with regular travel around London, as well as occasion travel to our city hubs Birmingham, Liverpool, London, and Manchester. This role requires an Enhanced Level DBS Disclosure as part of the recruitment process.

It is an exciting time to join the charity as we progress through the third year of our ambitious five year strategy. If you are passionate about social mobility and motivated by supporting young people living in some of the UK’s most deprived areas, this could be the charity for you!
