Qalyup

We connect patients with vetted international healthcare providers for affordable, safe, and transparent medical care abroad.

NQ Solicitor

About Qalyup

At Qalyup, we believe people should be able to access the healthcare they need to improve their health and quality of life.
 
Every year, thousands of patients travel internationally for medical treatment. While this can unlock faster access to care and specialised expertise, it can also carry significant risks. Between 2019 and 2024, 28 British nationals died while undergoing medical treatment overseas. And that is only the visible part of a much larger problem.
 
Qalyup exists to change that.
 
We connect patients with vetted, high quality healthcare providers abroad, helping people return home healthier and with peace of mind. To ensure trust and transparency, we personally visit and assess clinics using our proprietary clinical quality assessment methodology, developed through academic research at Imperial College London.
 
Our mission is simple: make healthcare tourism safer. But our ambition is global ��

The Role

We're looking for a Newly Qualified Solicitor to join us at a pivotal moment, helping build the legal foundations of a purpose-driven healthcare startup from the ground up.

This isn't a passive role. You'll do real work that matters: creating, reviewing, and implementing the frameworks that will shape how we operate, protect our patients, and grow responsibly. By the time you're done, you'll have a portfolio of tangible, measurable achievements, not just experience ticks.

What You'll Do

• Create employment and volunteer contracts to support our early recruitment efforts.
• Create advisor agreements with performance-driven vesting schedules.
• Create co-founder agreements with performance-driven vesting schedules.
• Review and strengthen our patient-facing terms and conditions.
• Audit and refine our privacy policy for compliance and clarity.
• Evaluate and review our contractual agreements with partner clinics.
• Implement a scalable contract management system.

What You'll Bring

• Qualified solicitor in England & Wales.
• A genuine interest in healthcare law and the regulatory landscape.
• Proactive, solutions-first mindset; you spot problems before they're asked about.
• Openness to feedback and a drive to keep improving.
• Alignment with our mission-driven and social impact purpose.

Why Join Qalyup

Healthcare decisions are deeply personal. When people consider treatment abroad, they are often navigating uncertainty, urgency, and the hope of getting their health and their life back.
 
At Qalyup, we are building a trusted gateway that helps patients make these decisions with confidence. By bringing transparency and clinical quality assessment into healthcare tourism, we aim to remove the uncertainty that patients and families often face.
 
By joining our legal function, you will help shape a company working to make international healthcare safer, more transparent, and truly centred around the needs of patients. Your insight will help us build a trusted brand that empowers people to seek the care they need with confidence.
 
If this resonates with you and you would like to learn more, we would love to hear from you ��

Our Values

�� Clinical quality above all
We work with vetted providers that deliver clinical excellence. Our clinical partners are carefully selected and monitored.

���� Listening is our superpower
Hearing what our users and colleagues have to say is our most powerful tool for continuous improvement.

���� Empowering informed decisions
Individuals have the right to make informed decisions about their care and finances. We want to make this process easy and transparent for our customers with the use of technology.

���� Helping others
Whether it is a colleague, a customer or a community in need, we will make best efforts to support as individuals and as a company.

People & Planet is looking for volunteers to assist with compiling its 2026/27 People & Planet University League; the only higher education ranking that classifies based on ethics and climate justice criteria.

Universities impart skills and knowledge, form life-long beliefs and behaviours, act as centres of communities, employ, house and feed large numbers of people and promote the creation and sharing of knowledge. We believe this makes them uniquely placed to lead on environmental and ethical issues. For this reason the People & Planet University League has been running since 2007 and has been published by high-profile media partners such as The Guardian (2021, 2022. 2023, 2024, 2025), The BBC, and whose data is used in the Sunday Time Good University Guide.

Volunteers will research publicly available university documents and assess universities against our marking criteria, which cover a wide range of climate and social justice issues including decarbonisation, fossil fuel divestment, ethical banking, workers’ rights and environmental management among others. This work will help to incentivise the university sector towards taking immediate and appropriate action on the climate crisis and upholding the rights and wellbeing of all people internationally.

The role will develop and improve the following areas:

• Qualitative research skills

• Attention to detail

• Use of data collection software

• Time management and keeping to deadlines

• Working independently and remotely

• Communication skills

• Knowledge of environmental management processes and sustainability reporting.

Training is provided for the role. We believe the skills and experience gained could be valuable for a number of career paths, including working in NGOs, corporate sustainability, estates management, higher education policy making, research and campaigning among many others.

People & Planet would like to support volunteers in their future careers, so will give all volunteers an official reference letter on successful completion of their placement and will act as a referee for future positions for which you may apply.

VOLUNTEER ROLE: TRAINERS

Help Build a Skilled, Confident Volunteer Force That’s Changing Men’s Lives

MINDSET isn’t just a charity. It’s a movement. A brotherhood. A mission to redefine what strength looks like for men across England.

We speak to men in a way that feels real — through action, honesty, challenge, and connection. No jargon. No judgment. No shame. Just real conversations, real growth, and real change.

But none of that happens without one thing: A volunteer team that is skilled, confident, supported, and ready.

That’s where you come in.

We’re looking for Volunteer Trainers who can help equip our team with the tools they need to support men safely, compassionately, and effectively.

If you’re someone with training experience — especially in mental health, coaching, safeguarding, or behaviour management — and you want to use your skills to change lives, this role is for you.

Why This Role Matters

Every conversation a volunteer has… Every workshop they support… Every man they help feel seen, heard, and valued…

It all depends on the training they receive.

Your work will help ensure:

• Volunteers feel confident and capable

• Men receive safe, high‑quality support

• Our services remain consistent, ethical, and impactful

• The movement grows with strong foundations

• Every volunteer feels part of something bigger

This isn’t just training. This is empowerment. This is safety. This is impact.

What You’ll Lead

As a Volunteer Trainer, you will help deliver training in areas such as:

• Mental Health First Aid

• Life Coaching skills

• First Aid

• Safeguarding & risk awareness

• Dealing with challenging behaviour

• Motivational Interviewing techniques

• Communication & active listening

• Boundaries, ethics, and safe practice

• Group facilitation skills

• Self‑care and resilience for volunteers

You’ll work with our Head of HR & Volunteering and Head of Services to:

• Deliver engaging, practical training sessions

• Help design new training modules and resources

• Support volunteers as they grow in confidence and skill

• Ensure our training reflects our culture code and values

• Build a learning environment rooted in honesty, courage, and brotherhood

You’ll be shaping the people who shape the movement.

Who We’re Looking For

• Experience delivering training or workshops

• Qualifications or skills in one or more key areas (MHFA, coaching, safeguarding, etc.)

• A passion for men’s wellbeing and preventative mental health

• Strong communication and facilitation skills

• A belief in action‑based, stigma‑free approaches

• Emotional intelligence and a people‑first mindset

• A desire to help volunteers feel confident, capable, and supported

If you’ve ever thought, “I want to use my skills to help others grow,” then you already understand the heart of this role.

What You’ll Be Part Of

MINDSET is building:

• Peer‑led support groups across England

• Action‑based wellbeing programmes

• Workshops that build resilience, confidence, and emotional strength

• Talk Zones in barbershops, gyms, and workplaces

• A digital platform for mental fitness and personal growth

• A national movement that redefines strength, vulnerability, and brotherhood

Your training will help power every part of this movement.

What You’ll Gain

This is a volunteer role — but the impact is real and lasting.

You’ll gain:

• Experience delivering training within a national charity

• A chance to shape the skills and confidence of an entire volunteer force

• A powerful portfolio in wellbeing, safeguarding, and personal development

• A supportive team that feels like a brotherhood

• A role that grows with you as the movement expands

• The knowledge that your work helped change — and even save — lives

If This Mission Speaks to You… Step Forward.

Men need us. Men need you. And together, we can build something powerful — something that helps men not just survive, but thrive.

Apply now. Join the movement. Reset the mindset — for others, and for yourself.
