Could you help SoundCafe grow?

SoundCafe Leicester is a small, friendly and ambitious charity which gives people who are homeless, vulnerable or socially isolated a regular opportunity to sing, be creative, meet people and feel part of a community.

Our weekly sessions make a real difference to the people who attend. In 2024 we were honoured to receive the King’s Award for Voluntary Service.

We are now looking for a Part-Time Manager to help us build on that success. 

What will you do?

Working with our trustees, volunteers and partner organisations, you will help SoundCafe to:

What are we looking for?

You will need good communication and interpersonal skills, the ability to work independently, and experience of managing people, projects, activities or services.

Most importantly, you will need to care about what SoundCafe is trying to achieve and be comfortable working with people from a wide range of backgrounds.

You don’t need to have done everything before; just have a foundation we can work together and build on.

Experience of the charity or voluntary sector, working with vulnerable adults, volunteer management, fundraising or grant applications would be useful, but these are desirable rather than essential.

Support to develop

This is a rewarding position combining ’hands-on’ where you are immersed in the activities, with an important managerial role in a small charity where you can see the difference your work makes.

You will have the flexibility to shape the role around your strengths, work closely with trustees and volunteers, and help determine the next chapter of a charity which has already achieved a great deal.

If you think you could make a difference, we’d like to hear from you.
