Working at the intersection of youth work, community organising and partnership development, the Senior Community Organiser will build relationships with young women, local organisations and national partners to strengthen Scotland’s Young Women’s Movement. They will create opportunities for young women to develop leadership skills, take collective action and influence lasting change in their communities and beyond.

The postholder will work independently to develop and deliver activity, develop and maintain partnerships and represent The Young Women’s Movement with credibility, professionalism and integrity at local, national and UK-wide levels.
