Then join Shelter as Corporate Volunteering Manager and you could soon be playing a pivotal role at the heart of our Volunteering team.

About Shelter
A home is a fundamental human need, as essential as education or healthcare. Yet millions of people across Britain struggle on a daily basis with homelessness, bad housing conditions, soaring rents, discrimination and the threat of eviction. So, we are striving for change, with individuals, in communities, across society, and leading the way to a safe home. We need ambitious, best-in-class individuals who are passionate about our cause to join us at this exciting time. This is your chance to play a part in the fundamental change we are striving to achieve.

At Shelter we are united by our purpose to defend the right to a safe home. Our enemy is the social injustice at the core of the escalating housing emergency. We believe that to win that fight, we must be representative of the people we are here to help and those who support our movement for change. In all our people decisions, we take pride in being inclusive, fair, equitable and transparent.

Indeed, volunteers are a vital part of our growing movement for change. Our Volunteering Team, which is part of a new Equity, Inclusion & Culture Directorate, supports the mobilisation of volunteers to deliver Shelter’s strategic priorities and provides the infrastructure and insight that enables that mobilisation. We also enable best practice approaches to volunteer management and are delivering an increasingly coordinated, consistent approach to how we engage volunteers across the organisation.

About the role

Developing new corporate volunteering opportunities that align with our strategy will be important too, and, because we have a large network of stakeholders, you’ll also need to build a number of effective relationships as you actively seek out opportunities to collaborate in order to ensure success. Establishing robust processes and procedures, seeking to continuously improve them and working towards a consistent approach to volunteering at Shelter based on volunteer management good-practice – all are aspects of this interesting and unique role.

We are happy to talk about flexible working, personal growth, and to promote a workplace where you can be yourself and achieve success based only on your merit.

About you

To succeed, you’ll need an innovative approach to setting up new volunteering activities and the processes that will support them. You’ll also need experience of applying best practice principles to volunteer engagement and up-to-date knowledge of additional relevant areas including GDPR, Safeguarding, Equality & Diversity. Comfortable planning and managing multiple projects simultaneously, including identifying conflicting demands and establishing clear priorities to meet agreed objectives, your great communication skills include an innate ability to influence and negotiate with a variety of stakeholders at all levels.

Shelter helps millions of people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness through our advice, support and legal services. And we campaign to make sure that, one day, no one will have to turn to us for help. We’re here so no one has to fight bad housing or homelessness on their own.

About Restless Development.

We know young people have the power to solve the challenges we face in our world, but they are being sidelined. We are the agency that works with young people so they can lead in solving those challenges.
