Job DescriptionSupply Chain & Partnership Manager
Regional Office Worker - Site & Community based (Covering Derbyshire & Nottinghamshire)
Salary: Starting from £40,000 per annum + Package
About the role
Can you turn strong relationships into real opportunities for young people?
We are looking for a confident and commercially minded Partnership Manager to lead employer and stakeholder engagement for the Youth Jobs Guarantee programme.
This is a role for someone who can open doors, build trust quickly and turn good conversations into jobs, placements and progression routes.
You will lead employer and stakeholder engagement with pace and purpose, using insight to build the right opportunity pipeline and challenge activity that is not delivering results.
What you will be doing
- Lead employer and partnership engagement, creating a clear plan that supports participant demand, performance and labour-market opportunity.
- Build trusted relationships with employers, Jobcentre Plus, local authorities, community organisations and specialist providers.
- Manage Employer Engagement Consultants, setting priorities, tracking activity and building a confident, accountable team.
- Maintain a strong opportunity pipeline, making sure there is enough volume, range and quality to meet programme expectations.
- Use data and insight to focus activity, spot gaps, improve conversion and manage risk.
- Influence inclusive recruitment, helping employers create practical routes into work for young people who may face barriers.
- Improve job matching and retention, working with delivery colleagues to strengthen preparation, onboarding and follow-up.
- Report performance clearly, giving the Service Manager an accurate view of progress, risks and action required.
About you
You will be a credible relationship builder with experience of developing employer, stakeholder or partnership networks. You may come from employability, skills, youth services, recruitment, business development, account management or a similar performance-led environment.
You will know how to move beyond introductions: define the opportunity, build commitment and keep momentum until results are delivered.
You will combine strong people skills with commercial focus, using data and feedback to set priorities, challenge drift and focus effort where it matters most.
Experience of working with young people, or services that support young people into employment, would be valuable. Just as important is your ability to make opportunities work for both the employer and the young person.
If you can open doors, build trust and turn insight into opportunities, we would like to hear from you.
