Help turn ambitious plans into real opportunities for young people. At The King’s Trust, we are working on new ways of supporting young people into employment in a challenging world – and we need someone to help us make this happen across the UK. Someone who can bring people together, cut through complexity, and build the right foundations so great ideas turn into real impact.

As our Delivery Mobilisation Lead, you’ll be that person – taking new opportunities and ideas and turning them into something teams can actually deliver on the ground. That means shaping how things will work, getting the right people aligned, spotting risks early, and making sure everything is in place so we can deliver meaningful impact from the moment we start delivery. This is an exciting opportunity to shape how new employment opportunities are launched, driving consistency, quality and real impact at scale across the UK.

You'll work closely with colleagues across delivery, programme design, fundraising and finance to ensure programmes are delivered effectively, giving young people access to the support, skills and opportunities they need to thrive. This is a great role for a leader who enjoys building things from the ground up, improving our offer to young people, and seeing their efforts translate into real-world impact at scale.

In This Role, You’ll:

• Lead the mobilisation of new programmes and opportunities, turning strategy into successful delivery.
• Bring teams, partners and stakeholders together to drive alignment and results.
• Identify and solve challenges, often at pace, to enable us to be successful.
• Use insight, feedback and data to continuously improve delivery.
• Build confidence and capability across teams as they adopt new ways of working.

We’re Looking For Someone Who:

• Has experience launching programmes or services from planning through to delivery.
• Is an exceptional organiser who can manage multiple priorities and deadlines.
• Can influence and engage senior stakeholders with confidence.
• Enjoys solving problems and driving continuous improvement.
• Is passionate about creating opportunities for young people.

Perks for working at The Trust:

• Great holiday package – 30 days annual leave entitlement, plus bank holidays.
• Office closure on the days between Christmas and New Year.
• Flexible working – where operationally possible, our roles require a combination of office days and working from home.
• You can volunteer for and/or attend events – the King’s Trust Awards, Pride, active events etc.
• In-house learning platform – develop your skills for your career and your role.
• Benefits platform – everything from health and financial well-being support to discounts on your favourite restaurants, shops and cinemas.
• Personal development opportunities through our networks – KT CAN, KT GEN, KT DAWN and PULSE.
• Fantastic family leave – receive 13 weeks of full pay and 13 weeks of half pay for maternity and adoption leave; receive 8 weeks of full pay for paternity leave.
• Interest‑free season ticket loans.
• The Trust will contribute 5 % of your salary to the Trust Pension Scheme.
• Generous life assurance cover (4 × annual salary).

Equal Opportunities:

Here at The King’s Trust, we’re committed to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion. We want to be an organisation that’s representative of the communities we serve, so we strive for diversity of age, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, race, religion and sex. Our goal is to create an environment where everyone, from any background, can be themselves and do the best work of their lives. We are looking for people that can bring different perspectives and experiences and especially welcome applications from those who are underrepresented in our organisation and sector, such as candidates from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds. We’re a Stonewall Top 100 Employer and we are an employer that is Disability Confident. Our staff, volunteers and young people are supported by our networks – KT CAN, KT GEN, KT DAWN and PULSE.
