Delivery Manager – Amble Youth Project

The Delivery Manager is responsible for managing and developing the charity’s current activities and its future work. The charity has built on decent work to be in a good position with successful funding bids; however, we want to increase our engagement with young people and develop our links with the community. The charity aims to relaunch itself by widening its involvement through key events within the community. Trustees hope to provide strong support to the Delivery Manager to help the charity move forward, ensuring it is relevant, effective, safe, and professionally provides for children and young people in our community as much as feasibly possible. The Delivery Manager will monitor and review the charity’s activities and will be responsible for the delivery and continuous improvement of the charity's operations, ensuring compliance with legislation and best practices.Key responsibilities are:Management, development, reviews, and assessments.Oversight and active participation where necessary in delivering the charity’s activities, particularly leading the development and delivery of the charity’s senior work (ages 13-18).Manage, support, and help professionally develop staff/volunteers and take an active role in their recruitment.Conduct monitoring, reviews, and assessments (including risk assessments).Review, develop, and implement the charity’s policies and procedures, participating in further reviews and development.Ensure administrative duties are completed, including payroll and petty cash management (trustee support is given).Build positive professional partnerships and promote collaborative community development.Engage in face-to-face youth work, especially with the 13 to 18-year-old cohort.Participate in the designated safeguarding team to ensure the safety of children, young people, and adults (trustee support is given).Work with the After School Club coordinator and fundraising contractor to identify funding needs and sources, contributing to reporting back to funders.Build on successful funding bids already made to deliver programs that meet existing commitments.Strengthen relationships with existing funders to renew or expand their commitments.Collaborate with trustees to provide submissions to the Charity Commission.Report back to trustees and funders about proposed bids, programs, outcomes, and reflective assessments.Person specification:Since this is a diverse role, the charity requires someone who is enthusiastic, driven, organized, and adaptable. The Delivery Manager will be a person who can lead but also be hands-on; someone who will thrive in a small, creative, and resourceful team and who is happy to work flexibly within the remit of their role. A can-do attitude and the ability to embrace challenges and seize opportunities for organizational growth are essential.
