• Translate funding into sustainable, community-led growth
• Shape how Scouts engages with underrepresented communities
• Develop and scale new models for growth and delivery

• Provide clear reporting on impact, value for money, and learning
• Lead and develop specialist teams, empowering them to deliver high-quality work

• Experience leading large-scale programmes, portfolios or innovation work
• Strong understanding of funded or grant-funded programmes
• Ability to translate strategy into scalable delivery models
• Experience working with or alongside underrepresented communities, building trust and sustainable engagement
• Confidence influencing across complex, matrixed organisations
• A collaborative leadership style, with the ability to empower specialist teams and volunteers

Critically, you will bring a genuine commitment to equity, inclusion and community-led approaches.

Why this role?

This is a rare opportunity to combine strategy, innovation, and social impact at scale.

You'll play a key role in ensuring that more young people, especially those who might not traditionally access Scouting, can benefit from its life-changing opportunities.

Equity, Diversity & Inclusion

The Scouts are committed to building an inclusive organisation where everyone feels they belong. Applications are particularly welcomed from people from communities that are underrepresented in Scouting, including Black communities, Muslim communities, and others who may have faced barriers to participation.

At Samaritans, volunteers are at the heart of everything we do. As the needs of communities evolve, we need to rethink how people connect, contribute and make a difference. We’re looking for a Volunteering Innovation Advisor to help us explore, test and embed new approaches to volunteering for the years ahead.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who is curious about emerging trends and motivated to find ways to reach people who do not currently volunteer with Samaritans. You’ll help develop new and more flexible models of volunteering—looking beyond our existing approaches to remove barriers, engage different audiences, and create opportunities that are both meaningful and sustainable.

This role is focused on developing new ways of attracting volunteers, with an emphasis on reaching new audiences and exploring different approaches.

Contract

• £30,000–£33,000 per annum plus benefits
• Full time (35 hours per week)
• Permanent
• Hybrid working with travel to Ewell office
• In-person working: Meeting in person and working collaboratively are things we value. We ask you to work in person around 2 days or more per month.
• We are passionate about flexible working—talk to us about your preferences

What You’ll Do

In this role, you’ll bring ideas to life by exploring how volunteering needs to evolve. You’ll research emerging trends and changing expectations to help shape new roles, opportunities and approaches to volunteering—particularly focused on attracting and engaging new volunteers to Samaritans.

You’ll use insight to design and test new ways of reaching different audiences, removing barriers to involvement, and creating more flexible and inclusive opportunities. This isn’t about refining what already exists—it’s about developing and trying new approaches that will help us grow and diversify our volunteer community.

You’ll help answer questions like:
• How can Samaritans offer more flexible and inclusive opportunities?
• What motivates volunteers today, and how is that changing?
• How do we ensure our volunteering reflects the diversity of the communities we support?

From gathering and interpreting insight to shaping ideas, planning projects and working with colleagues and volunteers, your role will be to turn thinking into action—helping to build a more inclusive, future-focused approach to volunteering across the organisation.

What You’ll Bring

• Curiosity and openness to innovation, with experience of exploring new ways of working
• Ability to work collaboratively with a wide range of people, including staff and volunteers
• Ability to use research and insight to inform decisions and shape new approaches
• Experience of contributing to change, improvement or innovation projects
• Experience in a volunteering-focused organisation, with an understanding of volunteer engagement, including how to reach and involve different audiences
