The Youth Endowment Fund Head of Digital Communications Reports to:Director of External Affairs and Youth Understanding Salary: £67,800 Location: Central London or Hybrid (see below) Contract: 2-year fixed term contract Closing date for applications: 12pm, Tuesday 7th April 2026 Interview dates: Week commencing 20th April 2026 About the Youth Endowment Fund (YEF) All of us will experience violence at some point in our lives. For many children, it is a daily reality. Each year, tens of children are killed, hundreds are hospitalised, 1 in 5 teenage children are victims and the majority admit to feeling afraid of violence. It scares them when they travel home from school, prevents them from going out and makes the most vulnerable feel like they don t matter. It is taking lives, traumatising families and dividing communities. It robs potential, progress and hope. But it doesn t have to be this way. The Youth Endowment Fund believes that no child should be affected by violence. We research violence to understand it; we find, fund and test what works to prevent it; and we are building a movement to end it. Communications at YEF The Communications team, within the External Affairs and Youth Understanding directorate, is a critical arm of the organisation. We can only reduce violence if people hear about what works and put it into practice. Change is hard and it only happens if people trust where it comes from and want to engage with what we are communicating. We can only make change at scale if we re smart about using digital tools to reach a growing, diverse audience across society. We need professionals working across our sectors youth-workers, police officers, social workers, policymakers, headteachers, and more to find out about and be part of our movement. To do this, we must communicate with humility, authenticity and clarity. We need politicians, commissioners and funders to follow our guidance and use our products. To do this, we must secure a seat at the table, communicate with intellectual rigour and persuade using the evidence. We also need to connect with wider society, helping anyone who cares about making Britain safer for the next generation to understand what we do, what works and how they can support our cause. To do this, our brand must be accessible and inspiring, leveraging robust research alongside human storytelling. As the Head of Digital Communications, you will be essential to achieving our mission. You will join the YEF at an exciting time. We are entering a crucial phase of increasing our policy influence at the top of government, changing things for the better across our sectors education, youth justice, youth sector, children s services, policing, health and mobilising a movement to keep children and young people safe. Your job is to make sure that the right people are drawn to our website and our digital communications, that they discover and engage with our content from quoting our data, to using our Toolkit and evidence, to following practical recommendations in our guidance, to watching videos about the latest trends and conversations in violence prevention and trust what we have to say. You will support the Director of External Affairs and Youth Understanding to plan, build and execute a digital campaign to make all of this happen. You will help to lead the Communications team to hold the attention of our priority audiences and making them act. Key Responsibilities The core of your job is to ensure that YEF's audience grows rapidly and strategically in size, that people working in our sectors gain awareness and confidence in our brand and that decision-makers engage with our work via our digital channels: our website, social media, newsletters, search, long- and short-form videos and the Safe podcast. You will further develop YEF s existing digital marketing strategy into a national campaign across for mobilising the evidence to prevent violence affecting children and young people. You will provide leadership to YEF generally and the Communications team specifically - managing the Senior Digital Marketing Manager and Digital Marketing and Communications Officer to develop internal collaboration for boosting organisation-wide digital activity, such as call-to-actions via social media and video content. You will execute a strategy for moving to a more segmented, sector-specific communication strategy that engages each audience (whether teachers, youth workers, police officers etc.) to use of YEF s products whether our Toolkit, our Guidance on what works and self-assessment tools for each sector.

To develop and leverage relevant agency relationships, and use data analytics, to optimise our SEO positioning for online searches related to youth violence, advise on investment in paid advertising to drive traffic to our website and products, and generally boost our digital engagement.

The Youth Endowment Fund Head of Digital Communications Reports to:Director of External Affairs and Youth Understanding Salary: £67,800 Location: Central London or Hybrid (see below) Contract: 2-year fixed term contract Closing date for applications: 12pm, Tuesday 7th April 2026 Interview dates: Week commencing 20th April 2026 About the Youth Endowment Fund (YEF) All of us will experience violence at some point in our lives. For many children, it is a daily reality. Each year, tens of children are killed, hundreds are hospitalised, 1 in 5 teenage children are victims and the majority admit to feeling afraid of violence. It scares them when they travel home from school, prevents them from going out and makes the most vulnerable feel like they don t matter. It is taking lives, traumatising families and dividing communities. It robs potential, progress and hope. But it doesn t have to be this way. The Youth Endowment Fund believes that no child should be affected by violence. We research violence to understand it; we find, fund and test what works to prevent it; and we are building a movement to end it. Communications at YEF The Communications team, within the External Affairs and Youth Understanding directorate, is a critical arm of the organisation. We can only reduce violence if people hear about what works and put it into practice. Change is hard and it only happens if people trust where it comes from and want to engage with what we are communicating. We can only make change at scale if we re smart about using digital tools to reach a growing, diverse audience across society. We need professionals working across our sectors youth-workers, police officers, social workers, policymakers, headteachers, and more to find out about and be part of our movement. To do this, we must communicate with humility, authenticity and clarity. We need politicians, commissioners and funders to follow our guidance and use our products. To do this, we must secure a seat at the table, communicate with intellectual rigour and persuade using the evidence. We also need to connect with wider society, helping anyone who cares about making Britain safer for the next generation to understand what we do, what works and how they can support our cause. To do this, our brand must be accessible and inspiring, leveraging robust research alongside human storytelling. As the Head of Digital Communications, you will be essential to achieving our mission. You will join the YEF at an exciting time. We are entering a crucial phase of increasing our policy influence at the top of government, changing things for the better across our sectors education, youth justice, youth sector, children s services, policing, health and mobilising a movement to keep children and young people safe. Your job is to make sure that the right people are drawn to our website and our digital communications, that they discover and engage with our content from quoting our data, to using our Toolkit and evidence, to following practical recommendations in our guidance, to watching videos about the latest trends and conversations in violence prevention and trust what we have to say. You will support the Director of External Affairs and Youth Understanding to plan, build and execute a digital campaign to make all of this happen. You will help to lead the Communications team to hold the attention of our priority audiences and making them act. Key Responsibilities The core of your job is to ensure that YEF's audience grows rapidly and strategically in size, that people working in our sectors gain awareness and confidence in our brand and that decision-makers engage with our work via our digital channels: our website, social media, newsletters, search, long- and short-form videos and the Safe podcast.
