Play youth volunteer volunteer jobs

At Scouts, we believe in empowering young people with skills for life. We give over 400,000 4-25-year-olds the skills they need for school, college, university, the job interview. Skills they need for life and to help them find their place in the world.

Scouts brings people together from all genders, races and backgrounds – everyone is welcome! Together we’re building stronger communities and contributing to a stronger society. All this is made possible by the generosity of our adult volunteers and the incredible staff who make our mission possible.

We’re now looking for an empathetic, values‑driven HR Business Partner to join our vibrant People and Culture Team and help shape a workplace where everyone can thrive.

In this pivotal role, you’ll work closely with leaders across the organisation to build capability, strengthen culture and ensure our people strategies truly support our wider business aims. You’ll be the trusted first point of contact for managers and staff in your directorates, offering clear, thoughtful and pragmatic advice across the full spectrum of employment matters.

Whether guiding a manager through a complex employee relations issue, advising on terms and conditions, or ensuring our HR systems and records are accurate and up to date, you’ll bring a calm, human approach rooted in our values of care, respect, integrity and cooperation.

You’ll play a key role in administering our salaries policy, liaising with Payroll, issuing contract amendments, updating policies and supporting our commitment to health, safety and wellbeing. You’ll also help us embed equity, diversity and inclusion in everything we do – balancing organisational needs, individual circumstances, legislation, data insights and our values to provide fair, consistent and compassionate guidance.

Alongside day‑to‑day support, you’ll also have the chance to contribute to exciting cross‑organisational projects linked to organisational development, learning and development, pay and benefits, workforce planning and EDI. This is a fantastic opportunity to broaden your experience while helping shape the future of people practice at Scouts.

We’re looking for someone who brings emotional intelligence, curiosity and a collaborative spirit. You’ll have experience across a broad range of HR advisory and administrative work – including change processes, grievances, disciplinaries, capability and performance management – and a strong understanding of the employee lifecycle. You’ll be confident using an HRIS, analysing data, mediating conversations and supporting wellbeing. You’ll also have up‑to‑date employment law knowledge, line management experience, and be CIPD‑qualified.

If you’re passionate about delivering a great people experience and want to make a meaningful difference in an organisation with purpose, we’d love to hear from you. Come help us build a workplace where every colleague feels supported, valued and ready to do their best for young people.

Income and Engagement Specialist

Are you a senior engagement specialist or fundraising leader who can see the big picture and also knows how to make things work brilliantly day to day? Do you believe that great systems and smart data only matter if they help you build more meaningful relationships with real people?

At Mencap, we’re at a genuinely exciting point in our journey. Our new strategy, Mencap 2030, sets out a bold ambition for the future, and engaging and growing our supporter base is central to making it happen. We’ve made significant investment in our engagement capability, including a state-of-the-art CRM, alongside face-to-face fundraising and digital innovation.

We’re now looking for an experienced leader to step into a senior interim role, providing stability, leadership and momentum across our engagement activity during a period of transition.

This role will lead all of our mass fundraising and engagement activity, including Individual Giving, Legacies, Community & Events Fundraising, and Supporter Care. It is a senior, influential role shaping how supporters experience Mencap, how we grow income sustainably, and how we build long-term relationships rooted in trust and shared values.

As part of the interim remit, the role will also provide operational oversight and support to our High Value Relationships team, working closely with the interim Executive Director of Fundraising and other colleagues to ensure continuity, strong performance management and clear oversight of income and KPIs during this period.

You’ll bring strategic vision and clarity, alongside strong operational judgement. You’ll know how to turn insight into action, how to use data intelligently (without losing the human touch), and how to lead teams through change with confidence and care. You’ll be comfortable holding performance, using financial and KPI information to support delivery and decision-making.

Just as importantly, you’ll recognise that our supporters aren’t just numbers or segments – they’re individuals who care deeply about our work and want to feel connected to the difference they’re helping to make.

You’ll lead the place where Mencap’s fundraising brand, proposition, and voice really come to life, designing experiences, appeals, campaigns and supporter journeys that reflect the voices and lived experiences of people with a learning disability and show the world why our work matters.

This is a full‑time role (37.5 hours per week), offered on a 9‑month fixed‑term contract, with flexibility on location.

If you’re excited by the opportunity to step into a senior interim leadership role, make the most of significant investment, and guide large, complex fundraising and engagement functions through an important period of transition, we’d love to hear from you! 

Apply now with an updated CV, applications close on 25th February, with interviews taking place shortly afterwards.
