    Brief

    DSIT is seeking a Regional Delivery Partner to deliver the TechYouth programme in the South East, part of the Government's flagship TechFirst digital and technology skills initiative. TechYouth aims to engage 1 million students across UK schools and colleges to develop digital skills, build confidence with AI, and explore technology career pathways. As a Regional Delivery Partner, you will: deliver skills-building activities and career inspiration events to schools and colleges in the South East; work collaboratively with local industry and academic institutions; focus on encouraging uptake from underrepresented groups, particularly girls and students from socioeconomic disadvantaged backgrounds; and help build a diverse, sustainable pipeline of future tech talent. This programme directly supports Government growth objectives by addressing the critical digital and STEM skills gap in the technology sector. Your delivery will inspire young people to pursue digital and computing qualifications at key stages (age 14 and 16) across both academic and vocational routes, creating foundations for long-term sector growth.
