Job description

About this role

The Children’s Book Project is a registered charity that directly tackles inequalities in well-being, self-esteem and educational outcomes in childhood by gifting beautiful, contemporary books to young people with very few books of their own. We have now gifted over two million pre-loved, carefully curated books to children across the UK via schools, foodbanks, prisons and women’s groups, ensuring the relevance and appeal of every book we gift.

Join us as Volunteer Manager and you’ll help transform childhoods through book ownership. In this vital role, you will recruit, inspire and coordinate a diverse team of volunteers across three regional hubs, each team charged with running impactful corporate volunteer events. Your energetic leadership will foster a vibrant community, ensuring effective recruitment, training, and retention. If you thrive in a dynamic environment and are passionate about social impact, this is your opportunity to create a best in class volunteer experience and support our wider goals.

Our Volunteer Manager has a very clear remit: to ensure that each of our book sorting events in Birmingham, Leeds and London is fully staffed by motivated and well trained Team Leaders and Volunteer Coordinators and that our wider volunteering needs (occasional drivers, remote volunteers) are met and supported as required.

They will plan and implement an ongoing programme of recruitment and training that takes into account potential attrition and our expanding needs. They will develop and implement initiatives that show our gratitude for our volunteers. And they will play a key role within the charity helping to measure and convey externally the value we place on a high quality volunteering experience.

To read the full role outline please visit our website and submit your completed application form.

Note that CVs are not accepted. Applications accepted until 24th April.
