Learning & Development Lead – VOLUNTEER ROLE

Remote | Approx. 4 hours per week | MINDSET Charity (UK)

Transforming men’s mental wellbeing through action, challenge, and real‑world connection

MINDSET is building a new kind of men’s mental wellbeing and personal growth movement in the UK — one that speaks the language men actually respond to: doing, belonging, challenge, and shared purpose. We’re not clinical. We’re not corporate. We’re not another “sit in a circle and talk about your feelings” model. We create experiences that help men grow, connect, and rebuild confidence from the inside out.

And now, we’re looking for a Learning & Development Lead to shape the knowledge, skills, and growth pathways that will power this national movement.

Why This Role Matters

Every programme we run — every breakthrough moment, every challenge completed, every man who reconnects with his confidence — depends on one thing: meaningful learning experiences.

Your work will shape how our volunteers, coaches, and programme participants learn, grow, and develop. You’ll be the architect behind the training, resources, and development frameworks that help our people thrive.

This is a founding role. You will build the learning culture and infrastructure that will support men across the UK for years to come.

What You’ll Lead

As our Learning & Development Lead, you will:

• Design and build MINDSET’s learning and development framework from the ground up

• Create simple, engaging training pathways for volunteers, coaches, and programme facilitators

• Develop resources, guides, and learning materials that support confidence, clarity, and growth

• Shape a learning culture rooted in belonging, purpose, and real‑world action

• Work closely with programme leads to understand training needs and build solutions

• Support the development of future programmes, challenges, and wellbeing experiences

• Help build a movement that changes the way men experience personal growth in this country

This role is remote, flexible, and designed for someone who wants to make a real impact in just a few hours each week.

Who This Role Is Perfect For

You’ll thrive in this role if you are:

• Someone who loves designing learning experiences that actually work in the real world

• Organised, creative, and able to turn ideas into simple, practical training materials

• Passionate about men’s wellbeing, personal growth, and community

• Excited by the idea of shaping a national movement from its earliest days

• A believer that learning should feel empowering, not overwhelming

You do not need charity experience. You do need heart, initiative, and a desire to help men live fuller, healthier lives.

What You’ll Be Part Of

MINDSET is creating a new narrative for men in the UK — one built on strength, connection, and growth. Your work will directly support the delivery of programmes such as:

• Our 12‑week Self‑Improvement Programme

• Our Life Coaching Programme

• Future activity‑based wellbeing programmes and challenges

You’ll be helping to build a movement that gives men the tools, confidence, and community they’ve been missing.

If you want to help build something bold, needed, and genuinely life‑changing…

We’d love to hear from you. Join us and help shape the learning culture at the heart of MINDSET.

Head of Programmes (MINDSET Charity) - VOLUNTEER ROLE

Remote | Approx. 4 hours per week | MINDSET Charity (UK)

Overseeing the programmes that change men’s lives across the UK

MINDSET is building a bold new movement for men’s mental wellbeing and personal growth in the UK — one rooted in action, challenge, brotherhood, and real‑world transformation. We create experiences that help men rebuild confidence, find purpose, and grow into stronger versions of themselves.

Our programmes are the engine of that transformation — and now we’re seeking a Head of Programmes to guide, shape, and elevate them.

Why This Role Matters

As Head of Programmes, you will oversee the development, delivery, and evolution of the programmes that make this impact possible. Your leadership will ensure that every man who joins MINDSET encounters something meaningful, structured, and genuinely life‑changing.

This is a founding leadership role — you will help define the programme identity of MINDSET for years to come.

What You’ll Lead

  • The 12‑week Self‑Improvement Programme

  • The Life Coaching Programme

  • Future activity‑based wellbeing programmes and national challenges

• Develop simple, effective systems for programme delivery and evaluation

• Ensure programmes remain safe, inclusive, and aligned with MINDSET’s mission

• Innovate new programme ideas that help men grow, connect, and thrive

• Work closely with the CEO and leadership team to scale programmes nationally

This role is remote, flexible, and ideal for someone who wants to make a deep, lasting impact in just a few hours each week.

Who This Role Is Perfect For

You’ll thrive in this role if you are:

• Passionate about men’s wellbeing, personal growth, and community

• Organised, strategic, and able to see the bigger picture

• Confident leading people and guiding programme teams

• Someone who loves turning ideas into structured, meaningful experiences

• Excited by the idea of shaping a national movement from its earliest stages

You do not need formal qualifications. You do not need clinical or therapeutic training. You simply need heart, clarity, and a desire to help men live fuller, healthier lives.

What You’ll Be Part Of

MINDSET is redefining what men’s wellbeing can look like in the UK. We’re building a movement that helps men grow through:

• Challenge

• Accountability

• Brotherhood
