Are you highly organised, calm under pressure, and passionate about improving outcomes for vulnerable children and young people? The Young Futures Prevention Panel (YFPP) is looking for an enthusiastic and committed Team Standards Co-ordinator to join our dynamic multi-agency partnership.
The YFPP is a funded early intervention project designed to reduce the impact of anti-social behaviour, criminality, and serious youth violence by identifying children at the earliest stage and coordinating swift, positive community intervention. You’ll play a vital behind the scenes role in helping the panel operate smoothly and effectively.
About the role
- As the YFPP Admin Co-ordinator, you will be responsible for ensuring the weekly panel runs seamlessly. Key duties include:
- Managing the YFPP dedicated mailbox and preparing weekly panel papers.
- Recording, tracking, and maintaining accurate case information, referral details, consent, and outcomes.
- Producing clear, timely minutes for each weekly panel meeting
- Coordinating multi-agency communication between partners including Children’s Services, Police, Early Help, Youth Justice, Education, community organisations, and commissioned services.
- Scheduling review dates and ensuring relevant information is gathered in advance.

- Confident in working with sensitive information and following data-protection requirements.
- Comfortable working with multi-agency partners.
- Able to work independently, problem-solve, and maintain momentum in a busy environment.
- Passionate about supporting better outcomes for vulnerable young people and families.
Experience in safeguarding, youth work, early help, or multi-agency environments would be an advantage but is not essential.
