Job description

HR & VOLUNTEERING DIRECTOR WANTED

BUILD THE CULTURE. GROW THE SQUAD. SHAPE THE MOVEMENT.

URBAN YOUTH is a startup pop‑up youth work charity — raw, energetic, and built from pure passion. We’re creating high‑impact youth experiences that feel more like street culture and a street wear drop, than traditional youth work.

No red tape. No corporate vibes. Just community, creativity, and real opportunities for young people.

Now we need a HR & Volunteering Director who can help us build the backbone of this movement — the people, the systems, the culture, the squad.

This Role Is About People, Purpose, and Building Something From Scratch

Urban Youth is small but mighty. We’re a start-up, and we need someone who can help us turn our volunteer energy into a powerhouse team.

You’ll be the architect of our people strategy — designing how we recruit, onboard, support, and empower the passionate humans who make Urban Youth come alive.

This isn’t HR in a corporate office. This is HR in a startup youth movement. It’s messy, creative, exciting, and full of possibility.

What You’ll Build

You’ll help us create:

  • A volunteer recruitment pipeline that attracts talent, passion, and drive

  • Onboarding experiences that feel like joining a squad, not filling out forms

  • Systems and processes that keep us organised without killing our vibe

  • A culture where volunteers feel valued, connected, and part of something bigger

  • A community of people who show up because they believe in what we’re doing

You’ll be the person who helps us turn “we need help” into “we’ve built a team.”

Who You Are

  1. You’re entrepreneurial.
  2. You’re resourceful.
  3. You’re the kind of person who can build a structure out of thin air and make it feel solid.
  4. You understand people — what motivates them, what inspires them, what keeps them committed.
  5. You know how to spot talent, nurture passion, and bring out the best in a team.
  6. You’re not scared of starting from zero.
  7. You thrive in environments where you get to create the blueprint, not follow one.

If you’ve ever said, “Give me a mission and I’ll build the team to deliver it,” this is your moment.

Why Urban Youth?

  1. Because we’re building something bold. Something fresh. Something that doesn’t look like anything else in youth work.
  2. We’re a startup charity with big dreams and tiny resources — which means your impact will be huge.
  3. You won’t just manage people; you’ll shape the culture, the community, and the future of Urban Youth.
  4. You’ll help build the squad that builds the movement.

Ready to shape the team that shapes the future?

  1. If you want to lead with heart…
  2. If you want to build systems that empower people, not restrict them…
  3. If you want to help create a youth movement from the ground up…

Urban Youth needs you.

Step up. Join the squad. Let’s build a community of passionate people who make magic happen.
