HEAD OF HR & VOLUNTEERING (REMOTE VOLUNTEER ROLE)
Build the backbone. Shape the culture. Power the movement.
Urban Youth is a start-up fast-moving, street‑level start‑up charity bringing high‑impact, urban-style youth work to London. We don’t sit in offices waiting for young people to come to us — we drop into the heart of the city, transforming unused spaces into hubs of creativity, connection, and opportunity.
But every movement needs structure. Every crew needs a culture. Every launch needs someone who can build the scaffolding behind the scenes.
We’re looking for a Head of HR & Volunteering — a founding volunteer leader who can design our systems, shape our people experience, and build the volunteer-powered engine that makes Urban Youth unstoppable.
Your Mission
You’ll be the architect of Urban Youth’s internal world — the person who builds the infrastructure that allows our street-level work to thrive.
You will:
Design and implement our HR systems, processes, and policies from the ground up
Build a volunteer programme that feels energising, inclusive, and purpose-driven
Lead our volunteer recruitment strategy, working with our Volunteer Coordinator
Shape a culture rooted in positivity, continuous improvement, team spirit, and belonging
Develop onboarding, training, and support pathways for all volunteers
Create simple, effective frameworks that help a start-up charity move fast without losing heart
Work closely with the leadership team to prepare Urban Youth for launch and long-term growth
This is a rare chance to build the foundations of a charity before it takes off.
Who You Are
You don’t need to be a traditional HR professional — though you can be. What matters most is your ability to build systems, nurture people, and create culture.
You might be:
Someone who loves structure, clarity, and good organisation
A natural community-builder who believes in people-first leadership
A champion of positivity, fairness, and continuous improvement
A creative thinker who enjoys designing processes that actually work
Someone excited by the idea of shaping a charity’s DNA from day one
Above all, you believe that people are the heart of everything — and you want to build a place where volunteers feel valued, supported, and part of a family.
Why This Role Matters
Urban Youth is volunteer-powered at its core. The systems you build will shape:
How volunteers join
How they’re supported
How they grow
How they feel
How we deliver high-impact youth work across London
You’ll be setting the tone for an organisation that moves at the speed of the street — bold, agile, and full of heart.
This is a founding leadership role. A legacy role. A chance to build something that will outlast all of us.
If you want to help build a charity’s entire people ecosystem — and shape a culture rooted in hope, energy, and community — we’d love to hear from you.
Apply now and become the backbone of Urban Youth.
To empower London’s youth through agile, short-term opportunities that build skills, social capital, and confidence via a radical, volunteer led model
