About Us
Volunteer Centre Tower Hamlets (VCTH) is a small charity, established in 2008. Our mission is to increase the quality, quantity and impact of volunteering in Tower Hamlets. We work with one of the youngest, most diverse populations in the country. We broker residents into inspiring volunteer roles. We train and advise charitable organisations on running inclusive, high quality volunteering programmes, and we advertise their volunteer roles.
Do you share our passion for volunteering and believe that it can transform lives and build fairer, more compassionate communities? If so, you could be just who we are looking for to join our supportive and impactful team.
As our Volunteering Advisor, you will work across two programmes, both of which support people from Global Majority communities into volunteering. You will help volunteers gain the skills, experience and confidence that they need to increase their employability, and you will lead on delivering our Minoritised Ethnic Trustees (METs) programme, recruiting, training and supporting local residents to become charity trustees.
Key responsibilities of the role include:
- promoting volunteering widely; running stalls at community events, giving targeted presentations, organising borough-wide Volunteer Fairs, and working with referral agencies
- developing trustee training materials and facilitating engaging, interactive sessions, then matching trainees to trustee positions
- enrolling volunteers, motivating them to overcome barriers, helping them to secure and sustain volunteering placements, and tracking their progress
- working with hundreds of local Volunteer Involving Organisations to develop and advertise inspiring volunteer roles that meet a wide range of needs, abilities and interests
- using your analytical and proficient IT skills to produce reports and help review services.
We are currently office-free. This hybrid role is home-based, but with a requirement to undertake regular work at community venues around Tower Hamlets.
We are open to discussing how the 21 hours are worked across the working week.
The ability to speak a community language and local knowledge of Tower Hamlets would be an asset, but are not essential. We are very keen to hear from candidates with lived experience relevant to this role, from Volunteer Managers, and from people who are passionate about volunteering.
Benefits include:
- 5% employer pension contribution
- Full Time Equivalent 33 days annual leave, inclusive of bank holidays, rising with length of service
- Employee Assistance Programme
- Training for continued professional development
- Time Off In Lieu
Closing date for applications is 9.30am on Tuesday 9 April 2024.
Interviews will take place the week commencing 15 April 2024.

Background
Chapter One is a dynamic, growing charity with a vision of a world in which all children have the literacy skills needed to thrive. Our mission is to close the reading gap by providing children with one-to-one support at the time they need it most. We work in eleven areas/regions of the UK and will support 3000 children in 2023-24.
Our unique Online Reading Volunteer programme pairs struggling five to seven-year old (KS1) readers with reading support volunteers who are working professionals. The volunteer ask is very focused: readers commit 30 minutes a week to read with a child using a bespoke digital platform for an entire academic year. The results are transformative, boosting children's reading confidence and ability.
From a school perspective, online reading volunteers provide direct, meaningful literacy support for up to 10 pupils per class. The programme is particularly suitable for communities where it might be challenging to find parents and other volunteers who can commit to physically visiting schools to boost reading.

Inclusion Barnet is Barnet’s Deaf and Disabled People’s Organisation (DDPO), led by a board and senior management team of disabled people, and we’re passionate about using our lived experience of disability to work towards inclusive communities and greater social justice for all. This role works on issues across all Barnet’s diverse communities, and all work needs to be undertaken through an equality and access lens. Therefore, we’re looking for someone with their own lived experience of disability (which could include mental health issues or a long-term condition), a commitment to the social model of disability, and an ambition to contribute to a fairer society for all. We also particularly welcome applications from global majority candidates, who are currently underrepresented at leadership level in our organisation.
The successful candidate will be our strategic lead within our award-winning Barnet Together partnership, working as an equal partner with Young Barnet Foundation and Groundwork London. You’ll be overseeing our community organisation support, ensuring that the team meet their KPIs and that we also deliver on our work to challenge inequalities for marginalized groups. You’ll represent the voluntary sector at the most senior level in Borough meetings, and support the development of the VCSE Alliance for North Central London.
You’ll also oversee our libraries, strategizing and identifying opportunities to enhance the service, and act as contact point in our role as Locally Trusted Organisation for the Grange Big Local.
To succeed, you will need extensive experience of the voluntary sector, partnership management, and the gravitas to represent the sector to senior local leaders. You’ll be a natural problem solver and an advocate for equality, as well as a collaborative, coaching manager; a great relationship builder with tact and emotional intelligence, and a champion for the contribution of the sector to the borough, and society more widely. In return, you will become part of a friendly and supportive team, working within a focused but flexible culture, where diversity is valued and you can bring your whole self to work.
This is a UK based role, and whilst most of it can be done from home, candidates need to have, or be willing to relocate to, a base within about two hours travel time from Barnet. We anticipate a need to be in Barnet on a weekly basis on average, for which travel will be paid. We encourage flexible working to suit your work/life balance preferences where possible. We also operate a Time Off In Lieu (TOIL) system.
To apply, please submit your CV with a brief covering letter explaining why you want to work for Inclusion Barnet, and how you would use your lived and professional experience to deliver the role.
