If you thrive in a dynamic environment and are passionate about social impact, this is your opportunity to create a best in class volunteer experience and support our wider goals.

Our Volunteer Manager has a very clear remit: to ensure that each of our book sorting events in Birmingham, Leeds and London is fully staffed by motivated and well trained Team Leaders and Volunteer Coordinators and that our wider volunteering needs (occasional drivers, remote volunteers) are met and supported as required.

They will plan and implement an ongoing programme of recruitment and training that takes into account potential attrition and our expanding needs.
