Today, the Hall continues to deliver an extraordinary programme spanning classical music, rock and pop, national moments and the spoken word. Each year, nearly two million people experience performances that entertain, challenge and inspire, creating unforgettable memories within one of the world’s most recognisable and celebrated buildings.
Looking ahead, the Hall has set an ambitious new vision to ensure it remains a place of dreams and determination, contemplation and celebration for generations to come. Central to this vision is the continued growth of its highly successful outreach programme, supporting emerging artists and deepening engagement with communities, widening access to the arts and strengthening the Hall’s social impact.
In support of this long-term ambition, a pioneering £50 million capital appeal was launched in late 2025. This 15-year estate plan represents a significant evolution in the Hall’s fundraising approach, creating an exceptional opportunity to expand its philanthropic reach, deepen relationships with supporters and secure transformational investment in the future of this much-loved institution.

Your ability to inspire your team and personally steward key supporters will be instrumental in driving this evolution in the Hall’s fundraising approach.
- Primarily focus on securing new supporters and driving innovative approaches to growing the donor base. Cultivating existing relationships is also an important aspect of the role.
- Foster a supportive and high-performing culture within your team, using a coaching leadership style to maximise potential and ensure the delivery of ambitious income targets. Your leadership will be key to driving performance while maintaining hands-on involvement with major donors and high-profile supporters.

Do you have experience recruiting, supporting and motivating volunteers?
Are you excited by the idea of building a national volunteer network that delivers real, life-changing impact?
Charity People is delighted to be partnering with a charity to recruit a Volunteer Coordinator for a newly created role at a pivotal moment in their evolution.
A chance to shape something from the very beginning
The charity is undergoing an exciting transformation. Long known for providing audio equipment, they're evolving into the UK's leading technology empowerment service for people with sight loss.
This role sits at the heart of that change. As Volunteer Coordinator, you'll build and nurture a nationwide volunteer network that will transform how people with sight loss access technology support. You'll be the heartbeat of the volunteer programme - recruiting, onboarding, supporting and championing volunteers across the UK.
Working closely with the Project Manager, you'll ensure volunteers feel valued, confident and supported to deliver excellent, accessible technology support.
The impact you'll make
- Recruit and onboard volunteers, ensuring strong geographic coverage and diversity
- Manage DBS checks, safeguarding processes and volunteer records
- Support volunteers day-to-day, acting as their primary point of contact
- Monitor wellbeing, workload and retention to prevent burnout
- Match volunteers to service users based on skills, location and availability
- Build peer-support networks, mentoring relationships and learning opportunities
- Create recognition programmes and development pathways
- Foster a strong, connected volunteer community across digital and in-person spaces
This is a role for someone who cares deeply about people, thrives on purpose, and understands what makes volunteers feel supported and valued.
A culture built on trust, flexibility and wellbeing
The charity understands that life doesn't stop at the door of work. The charity is deeply committed to staff wellbeing and recognises that family responsibilities, health, caring roles or life events sometimes need to take priority.
You'll be supported in a truly flexible, family-friendly working environment, built on:
- Trust, not micromanagement
- Respect for individual circumstances
- Autonomy over when and how you work
- A leadership team that genuinely listens
This is a remote-first organisation where people are trusted to do their best work in a way that works for them - and where kindness and accountability go hand in hand.
What else is on offer
- Fully remote, genuinely flexible working
- Part-time hours (21.75 per week) arranged around your life
- 15 days' annual leave plus bank holidays (pro-rata, based on full-time entitlement)
- Additional time off over the Christmas period
- Auto-enrolment pension
- Quarterly in-person team days and occasional events
- A supportive, mission-driven team that values collaboration and care
Inclusion at the heart of everything
The charity is committed to equality, diversity and inclusion and strongly encourages applications from people with sight loss. Lived experience is highly valued, and reasonable adjustments will be made throughout the recruitment process and in the role itself to ensure everyone can thrive.
Application deadline: Friday 23rd January 2026
