Birmingham Children's Trust,
An exciting opportunity has arisen for the right person to join Birmingham Youth Justice Service as an Assistant Head of Service.
Birmingham is one of the largest Youth Justice Services in England and Wales. Our latest HMIP inspection in 2022 found that the Service had improved since its previous inspection in 2020, but there remains more work to do.
The Service is on a significant development journey to support the achievement of better outcomes for children, victims, care-givers and communities. You will be joining an organisation and service committed to continuous improvement; striving to deliver excellence and embracing best practice, innovation and research. This is a great time to join Birmingham Youth Justice Service as we continue our transformation.
You will be a key member of a dedicated and highly competent senior leadership team. You will have a critical role in leading reform across the service and delivering against a number of strategic priorities. You will be confident in working strategically across the partnership with key stakeholders, ensuring the effective and efficient use of resources and delivery of services.
Birmingham Youth Justice Service is committed to embedding inclusive, anti-discriminatory, Child First and trauma responsive practices across all aspects of Service design and delivery. The successful candidate will be expected to proactively demonstrate an understanding, experience, and ability to apply these principles.

You should have the following expertise:
* Have a proven record of effective leadership and change management.
* Have experience and understanding of the barriers children face engaging in Education, Training and Employment and the strategic partnership approaches needed to support re-engagement.
* A comprehensive knowledge of effective research-based interventions delivered within a Youth Justice setting, to support social inclusion, develop pro-social identity and ensure safety of victims and communities.
* Have a comprehensive understanding of the legal and statutory framework in which Youth Justice operates including the work in the Youth Court and Out of Court diversions
* Be committed to work with and alongside others, to learn, innovate and drive forward developments.
In return you will receive:
* Competitive salary and rewards (Currently under pay and grade review)
* Generous Annual Leave allocation
* Various additional employee benefits
* Opportunity to join the Local Government Pension Scheme
* A commitment to your personal learning and development
* Excellent career progression opportunities
