We operate a unique, dual-impact framework: an inclusive empowerment programme for underrepresented UK individuals, and our flagship global tourism initiative.

• Strategic Bid Writing: Translating our complex dual-impact model into compelling, successful grant applications for social enterprise and community impact funders.
   

• Funding the Future: Securing capital to fund our core social mission expansions, including scaling our digital literacy programmes and on-the-ground initiatives.
   

• Partnership Sourcing: Identifying new Trusts, Foundations, and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) partners whose values align with our radical transparency and ethical ethos.

• Measurable Global Impact: Your writing doesn’t just raise awareness; it secures the capital that builds schools, funds micro-finance, and supports independent livelihoods.
   

• Innovation-First Experience: We operate with the focus of a modern social enterprise. You will gain hands-on experience utilizing cutting-edge digital tools to scale your output.
   

• Ultimate Flexibility: We operate a 100% remote, asynchronous workspace. You complete your hours on your own schedule, from anywhere in the UK.
   

• A Prestige Portfolio Piece: Coming in at the ground floor of a pioneering social enterprise is a uniquely powerful case study for any professional portfolio.

• Wants to be part of a groundbreaking social enterprise at the startup stage

• Values ethical work, transparency, and accountability

What will you be doing?

As our Technical VR Advisor you'll act as a senior technical voice for the team, providing strategic technical guidance and sharing your experience rather than day-to-day management. Working alongside our Lead Developer and a motivated team of four software developers, you will have the opportunity to:

This role has two sides, and you might lean more towards one than the other:

Product and strategy guidance:

• Advise on hardware decisions, particularly our upcoming transition to standalone VR headsets
• Share knowledge of the VR landscape: tools, platforms, what's working in the industry to help us make smart choices with limited resources
• Help us think about user experience design for an educational audience aged 14–18

Technical and development guidance:

• Advise on software architecture, tooling, and development practices for our Unity/C# VR application
• Mentor volunteer developers, helping them think through technical problems and grow their skills
• Guide the team on performance optimisation and best practices
• Help flag technical risks or opportunities as our product evolves

Note: Strength in either area is valuable (both together is ideal). This is a flexible advisory role and you can shape your involvement around where your experience has the most impact.

What are we looking for?

• Solid knowledge of the VR/XR space
• Familiarity with the VR hardware landscape, particularly standalone headsets (e.g. Meta Quest)
• We'd ideally love someone with professional or substantial hands-on experience in VR, but if you've built that depth through research, teaching, or personal projects, we'd still love to hear from you
• Experience with Unity and/or C# is a bonus but not essential - product and strategic experience in VR is equally valuable
• An interest in mentoring or teaching
• Someone who can commit roughly 1–3 hours per week, with the flexibility to scale up occasionally
• Passion for education, equity in STEM, or making technology accessible to young people

Nice to have: experience with educational software, interactive design, or working with non-profit / volunteer teams.

What difference will you make?

By lending your experience you'll be directly contributing to our goals to:

• Educate students aged 14–18 on the real-world applications of physics using VR
• Increase equitable access to super-curricular STEM activities in disadvantaged communities
• Show young people that physics can lead to exciting careers beyond academia

We believe in the power of holidays to transform lives. Time away matters.

To help us do all that we’ll need the guidance, challenge, connections, and support of all our Trustees.
Given our goals, we’re particularly looking to add the following professional skills and experiences to our team.

• HR-Focused- a Trustee who will serve as Chair of the Nomination & Remuneration Committee, providing strategic oversight of people, culture and organisational development whilst acting as the Board’s Safeguarding lead and supporting the Charity’s safeguarding assurance framework. Prior safeguarding experience is desirable but not essential.

There are two Board sub-committees- one which focuses on our Finances and Risk, and one which considers our people (Trustees and Staff). Once you’ve settled into the role, most Trustees join one of them. They meet remotely around four  times a year.

Outside of formal meetings, you’ll be warmly encouraged to get to know the staff team, and attend fundraising events 
or other events to meet referrers, families, and supporters wherever possible.

Overall, you’ll need to be able to commit around 6 hours each month for a mix of meetings and events, contributing
your skills and perspective to projects, building your knowledge of the charity and developing as a Trustee.

Why Volunteer With Us

We are early-stage, moving fast, and building something that matters. You will have real ownership over technical decisions that directly shape a tool going into the field. Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers in the world, yet it remains a leading cause of cancer death in low-resource settings simply because screening does not reach the people who need it.

Role Overview
Your role will be to aid design and implement a preprocessing model that ensures all incoming cervical images meet strict quality and consistency standards before being passed into downstream models.
Our cervical cancer screening method is dependent on pictures taken using a smartphone, leading to large variation in lighting and cervix positions in the image.

Key Responsibilities

• Build automated checks for:
• Lighting normalization
• Blur and focus detection
• Angle and framing validation
• Specular reflection handling
• Develop preprocessing models or heuristics to:
• Enhance image quality (contrast, de-noising)
• Standardize image format, resolution, and scale
• Implement image rejection and acceptance criteria pipeline
• Create a quality scoring system for input images
• Collaborate with CV and ML engineers to optimize preprocessing impact on performance
• Optimize preprocessing for real-world noisy data (mobile capture, low-resource settings)

Required Skills

• Strong background in computer vision fundamentals
• Experience with OpenCV, PIL, or similar image processing libraries
• Understanding of image quality metrics
• Experience building automated data validation pipelines

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with medical image preprocessing

• Familiarity with variability across capture devices and environments

• All roles are highly collaborative and will work closely across the MednTech AI pipeline

• Experience with healthcare AI, low-resource environments, or global health applications is a strong plus

• Candidates should be comfortable working in fast-paced, early-stage environments
