KFC Youth Foundation are recruiting for a Youth Hub Manager.

Lead a space that changes young people’s lives

We’re looking for a bold, strategic and hands‑on leader to take ownership of our Middlesbrough Hub — a vital community space supporting young people facing real barriers to opportunity.

As Hub Manager, you won’t just run a service. You’ll shape a high‑impact environment, design programmes that change lives, and build partnerships that open doors for young people who need it most.

What you’ll do:

• Lead and develop the hub as a high‑impact community asset, responding directly to local needs of young people.
• Design and deliver programmes that support young people’s physical, emotional and social development, using youth voice to shape provision.
• Build strong local partnerships with organisations, funders and community stakeholders
• Drive impact and sustainability, using data, insight and storytelling to evidence change and secure future financial support
• Lead and inspire a team, creating a positive, accountable and high‑performing culture
• Oversee operations, including budget management, facilities, safeguarding and compliance

You will play a critical role in ensuring the hub not only delivers for young people today — but is built to sustain and grow its impact over time.

Who we’re looking for:

You’ll bring:

• Strong experience leading youth, community or place‑based programmes
• The ability to turn strategy into reality
• A track record of building partnerships and influencing stakeholders
• Confidence in leading teams, driving confidence and performance
• A clear commitment to safeguarding, inclusion and young people’s outcomes

Most of all, you’ll be someone who sees potential — in people, in places, and in what’s possible.

Benefits:

• Lead a high‑profile, purpose‑driven community hub
• Shape innovative programmes that respond to real need
• Work as part of a mission‑led organisation with national reach and growing impact
• Be part of a team committed to creating lasting change for young people
• Up to 9% employer pension contribution
• Flexible and hybrid working
• Private medical cover
• Employee Assistance Programme
• Ongoing training and development

If you’re ready to lead a hub that makes a real difference — and help shape the future for young people in Middlesbrough — we’d love to hear from you.
