Job description

Are you a Programme Manager looking for your next opportunity? I am delighted to be working with Youth Business International in search of an outstanding Programme Manager.

Youth Business International (YBI)'s mission is to support young people to start, grow and sustain their businesses - enabling them to create jobs, build communities and transform lives. This role is to manage an exciting portfolio of international programmes with a range of donors, including managing the delivery of a Google.org funded programme in South Korea.

Role purpose:

This role is instrumental in achieving YBI's ambition through delivering existing and new partnerships with the following principles in mind:

  • Building/maintaining strong working relationships and carefully balancing the needs of our partnerships with the needs and capacity of our members - both sets of stakeholders will enjoy a trusted relationship and a rewarding experience of working with the Network Team.

  • Demonstrating greater accountability for every partnership 'dollar' - managing strong programme management processes and reporting across the Network Team and members (where relevant), resulting in clear reporting at senior level and strong donor confidence in YBI.

  • Delivering well and consistently within a fast-paced and agile environment - working with YBI Network Team, members and delivery partners (where relevant) to ensure programme deliverables are achieved/exceeded and risks are effectively flagged and mitigated. In addition, working proactively to unlock additional opportunities within partnerships and maximise potential for further leverage.

  • Contributing to the Network Team's continuous improvement - supporting the development of replicable and innovative partnership models based on lessons learnt; contributing insights and guidance at senior level about maximising the value of existing partnerships.
