Shape the Heart of MINDSET Charity – Build a Community of Purpose
Who We Are
MINDSET Charity is a new, volunteer-run organisation dedicated to transforming men’s lives across England. We support men on their journeys of mental wellbeing and self-improvement through workshops, creative programmes, and community-building activities.
We are building a movement of resilience, dignity, and brotherhood. To make this possible, we need a dedicated HR & Volunteering Manager to create and nurture our volunteer community.
The Role of HR & Volunteering Manager
As our Volunteer HR & Volunteering Manager, you will:
-
Design and launch our volunteering programme, ensuring clarity, inclusivity, and impact.
-
Recruit, onboard, and retain volunteers, building a team of talented, skilled, and positive individuals.

Foster a brilliant team-spirited culture, where volunteers feel valued, supported, and inspired.
-
Develop policies and processes that safeguard wellbeing and sustain long-term engagement.
-
Champion our values of brotherhood, empowerment, integrity, and growth in every aspect of volunteer management.
This is a volunteer role, but your leadership will be the heartbeat of MINDSET Charity — creating a community that makes a real difference in men’s lives.
Who We’re Looking For
We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds who share our passion for men’s mental wellbeing. Experience in HR, volunteer management, or team leadership is highly valuable, but what matters most is your commitment to building a culture of positivity, dignity, and purpose.
Why Join Us
-
Be part of a pioneering charity at its foundation stage.
-
Shape the volunteer culture of a national movement.
-
See your work directly empower men and communities.
