The Youth Endowment Fund Programme Manager Reports to: Programme and Impact Lead Salary: £44,200 Contract: 18-month fixed term (Full-Time) Location: Central London, Hybrid Closes: Monday 14 th July 2025 at 12pm About the Youth Endowment Fund We''re here to prevent children and young people becoming involved in violence. We do this by finding out what works and building a movement to put this knowledge into practice. Last year , 244 people in England and Wales tragically died after being assaulted with a knife. Of these, 32 were children. Every child captured in these numbers is an important member of our community and society has a duty to protect them. Even when violence doesn''t strike directly, we know that the fear of violence has a terrible effect on children''s lives. The Youth Endowment Fund exists to try and permanently change things. To succeed, we must build an exceptional body of knowledge about violence affecting young people and how we reduce it. This knowledge has to be both rigorous and highly relevant to those making decisions about how to support vulnerable young people. We need to find out what works and what doesn''t through evidence synthesis, data analysis and qualitative research into children''s lives. We need to convert this into highly accessible content on what works, how delivery organisations need to change their practice and how the systems they operate in need to be reformed. We then need to work with the right people that can make change
