Role Description
Imagine if everyday online (and in many cases, in-store) shopping could help end poverty, protect the planet, improve healthcare, and strengthen human rights. Through our website, it can. With over 10,000 shopping partners who donate a commission every time our members make a purchase, we have the power to turn ordinary shopping into extraordinary impact.

And almost everyone, regardless of age, background or location, can take part with just the click of their mouse - helping us to make communities on every continent safer, happier, healthier, better-aware and more sustainable places to live.
We’re seeking passionate Volunteer Ecommerce & Commercial Managers to help grow this unique programme. You’ll work to encourage more people to shop through our platform, strengthen relationships with retail partners, and help us maximise the funding we receive from every transaction.
Your expertise will directly support our campaigns to build a fairer, healthier, and more sustainable world. If you have experience in ecommerce, business development, online retail, or commercial strategy, we’d be thrilled to have you join our mission.
Duties
- Manage and maintain the company’s online SHOP page, ensuring all store/product listings are accurate, engaging, and up-to-date
- Develop and manage our online partnerships to ensure maximum benefit to the charity.
- Develop and implement marketing strategies to drive traffic and maximise sales through various digital channels

Join us – Independent Age is looking for new trustees!
Would you like to use your skills and experience to help us end poverty in later life? Independent Age is the only national charity focused solely on improving the lives of people facing financial hardship in later life. We currently achieve impact through three key activities: advice and support, grant-making, and policy, influencing and campaigning. This year, we have supported over 20,000 people who called our helpline and identified over £6.5 million in unclaimed benefits. We have awarded £3 million in grants, enabling local organisations to reach even more older people living in financial hardship. We also successfully campaigned for the Winter Fuel Payment to be restored to a large number of older people who rely on it, and to improve protections for older renters through the Renters’ Rights Act and the Housing (Scotland) Act.
We are looking to appoint several new trustees to our Board. We are interested in hearing from people who are concerned about the growing impact of poverty in later life on our society, and can bring us any of the following skills or experience:
-
finance
-
fundraising
-
brand / marketing / engagement
-
business development / transformation / innovation / technology.
Every day at Independent Age, we hear from older people who don’t have enough money for a decent standard of living. While they are resourceful, careful and resilient, and employ many tactics to make their low-income work for them, life is hard.
The people who engage with us are part of a group of two million older people living in poverty and a further million living with precarious financial security. Concerningly, our research shows that this number could rise to four million by 2040, without effective policy interventions. This projection must not become a reality.
Certain groups of people aged 65 and over are at greater risk of financial hardship, including one person households, women, people from racially minoritised groups, private renters, carers and people with long-term conditions or disabilities. We particularly encourage applications from people who have backgrounds, characteristics or perspectives that align with any of these priority groups. We’d also like to encourage applications from candidates outside the south-east of England and, in particular, from Scotland.
Previous trustee experience is not necessary because you would be joining a strong, experienced Board and we can provide mentoring and support. The time commitment will be around 1-1.5 days a month on average, focused around the quarterly cycle of board and committee meetings. Trustee roles are not paid. However, we want to help overcome the barriers some people might face to becoming a trustee. We pay reasonable travel, accommodation, subsistence and the cost of care provision for children and dependents when acting on behalf of the charity. Some of these costs can be paid upfront by the charity, if needed. We also pay reasonable costs associated with attending the initial interview.
How to apply
Further information and details on how to apply can be found in our Application Pack, which is included below. A Basic DBS check is required for trustee roles in line with our safeguarding policy.
The deadline for applications is Sunday 18 January.
Independent Age is the national charity focused on improving the lives of people facing financial hardship in later life.
