This is a unique opportunity to deliver tangible community impact while directly enhancing the employability and professional standing of legal professionals.

This position offers the opportunity for a career step-up, providing experience in managing legal teams and departmental operations within a social justice framework. In this Head of Department capacity, you will gain the leadership credentials and strategic oversight necessary to advance your professional trajectory while ensuring every individual we support is empowered to achieve their full potential.

Role Purpose

The Head of Department (Legal) oversees a team of dedicated legal professionals and graduates who operate in a capacity similar to paralegals. You will bridge the gap between Directors and the legal team, turning high-level objectives into actionable legal support plans while ensuring the highest standards of professional conduct and social justice advocacy.

Key Responsibilities

• Strategic Oversight: Developing and managing the legal department’s roadmap to support Quilombo UK’s social justice initiatives.

• Team Supervision: Overseeing the work of legal graduates, many of whom are working towards their LLM (Master of Laws), ensuring their contributions are technically sound and ethically grounded.

• Social Justice Advocacy: Managing caseloads and research projects that tackle systemic inequalities and discrimination within the community.

• Operational Control: Maintaining 100% visibility of all legal tasks via project management tools and providing weekly reports to Directors on risks, progress, and Work in Progress (WIP).

Additional Professional Benefits

• Career Development: A full CV and profile review conducted by our Talent Acquisition and Learning & Development teams.

• Operational Support: Access to the services of the Legal, Graphic Design, PR, and Production teams for up to 10 hours per month for professional or departmental support.

• Proactive Recruitment: Use of the Talent Acquisition team to actively search out new roles and opportunities via industry portals and LinkedIn.

• 15% Profit Share: A share of the commission for work carried out, divided among individuals at the HoD level for specific tasks.

• 10% Business Development: An additional commission if new work or clients are brought into the organisation independently by the HoD.

Requirements

• A strong legal background (GDL, or equivalent) with a deep commitment to social justice.

• Experience in a supervisory or management role, ideally overseeing paralegals or junior legal researchers.

• A clear understanding of the SRA regulatory framework and the requirements for Qualifying Work Experience (QWE).

• Excellent analytical, drafting, and communication skills.

Selection Process

Call to Action: Become Clan Historian of the Lyonic Scots

Step forward and take your place in a story that began on the fields of Culloden in 1746—where courage, loyalty, and identity were tested, but never extinguished. From those ashes rose a resilient Scots community whose spirit has carried across centuries. Today, we honour that legacy by building something new, something global, something fiercely alive: The Lyonic Scots Clan Society.

We are seeking a founding Clan Historian—a passionate researcher, storyteller, and guardian of heritage who will help preserve and illuminate the rich tapestry of our past. This role is central to understanding who we are, where we come from, and how we carry our story into the future.

As Clan Historian, you will:

• Research, record, and preserve the history of the Lyonic Scots and our wider cultural roots

• Work closely with the Clan Chief and Executive Committee to ensure our traditions and narratives are honoured and accurately represented

• Help curate historical materials, archives, stories, and educational content for our global community

• Share the tales, triumphs, and trials that shaped our ancestors and inspire our members today

• Play a vital role in building a society grounded in authenticity, memory, and cultural pride

You do not need Scottish ancestry to serve in this role. What matters is your curiosity. Your dedication. Your belief in the power of history to unite, teach, and inspire.

If you feel the pull of something meaningful… If you want to help build a society rooted in honour, heritage, and the enduring spirit of the Scots… If you’re ready to take on a role that preserves our past and shapes our future…

Then the Lyonic Scots are calling for you.

Stand with us. Shape our future. Carry the flame forward.

Become the founding Clan Historian. Become a keeper of our legacy. Become Lyonic.

All of our roles have an initial common job description

As a member of Mosaic LGBT+ Young Persons’ Trust board (the “Board”) you help provide overall direction and leadership for the organisation’s strategy, with accountability for the organisation: sound management; financial health and quality of programme delivery.

General responsibilities (common to all Trustees)

In carrying out the collective responsibilities of the Board, individual Trustees should:

●Be an active participant, making relevant skills, experience and knowledge available to the organisation. This includes sitting on the Board and one of the Board subcommittees, occasionally attending events we are holding, and using personal networks to develop connections for the organisation

●Regularly attend Board meetings and prepare fully for those meetings including reading papers in advance, identifying key issues for discussion and providing advice and guidance on areas of expertise.  Board meetings are held 5 times a year.

●Regularly attend the meetings of the subcommittee of which you are a member and prepare fully for those meetings including reading papers in advance, identifying key issues for discussion and providing advice and guidance on areas of expertise. Committee meetings are held 5 times a year.

●Have prior knowledge of, or take time to familiarise themselves with, best practices of Charity governance and operations including financial management. (We will provide guidance and training on this)

●Develop and maintain a sound and up-to-date knowledge of the organisation’s activities and any wider issues that affect its work

●Actively contribute towards the effectiveness of the Trustee Board, engaging in discussion, debate and voting in a considered and constructive way, participating in induction and training as required, and sharing ideas for how the Board can be improved

●Act in the best interests of Mosaic, including contributing to fundraising efforts, e.g. through personal contributions, introductions to potential supports and attending fundraising events

●Undertake an annual performance self-assessment, which will be reviewed in discussion with the Chair and Vice Chair.

●Act as brand ambassador when talking to other professionals raising profile and need for LGBT+ young persons’ services and placing Mosaic as a key provider of such services.

Specific to these jobs: 

A trustee from the global majority

We need a Trustee from the global majority who will be able to provide us with insight and perspectives that are not fully represented at our Board meetings.  We do have a diverse Board, but we are conscious that our membership, particularly in the young adults group, draws heavily from the global majority.  We think we would benefit from another Trustee from this background.  We are passionate about having diverse voices in our leadership because it helps us make better decisions. We also think we need to be sure we are hearing from people who have similar experiences to those we work with.

This Trustee position is open to those with a range of skills or specialisms, including but not limited to the provision of frontline services (for example safeguarding, working with young people, working with or knowledge of the challenges faced by LGBT+ refugees), marketing and fundraising (for example working in PR, having a knowledge of fundraising or events management) or charity management (for example financial skills - maybe gained outside the charity sector, governance or risk management).

We don’t need you to have been a Trustee before – we are committed to providing the training and support for anyone where this is their first Trustee role. Many of our current Trustees took this on as their first role and would now be regarded as experienced Trustees with a good knowledge of what is required to make the role a success..

Person Specification

Essential 

● Lived experience of LGBT+ young people and the LGBT+ community. 

● Lived experience of being from the global majority

● Commitment to Mosaic’s vision and mission.

● Understanding of the legal responsibilities and liabilities of a Trustee; or a willingness to get that understanding very early in the role 

● Good communication skills and creative thinking 

● Sound, independent judgment and strategic vision 

● A willingness to speak their mind persuasively but diplomatically

● Confidence to take decisions for the good of the organisation

● Willingness to devote the necessary time and effort to the duties of a Trustee 

Desirable

● Experience managing a team

A Trustee with an interest in management of risk

We need a Trustee with an interest in the management of risk. For us that means keeping the risk register (we already have one, and its up to date and in good shape), and working with the chairs of the committees to ensure that their committee reviews the risks that they own (our experience is that they need a bit of a push to do it, but when they do it, it is done well).  It also means saying “have we considered the risks here” when we discuss things at Board and making sure we keep that as a focus.

You don’t actually need to have done this before because it is relatively easy to understand and the role is keeping the organisation focused on risk rather than actually doing the risk management yourself.

We have a robust risk register and in the last 12 months we have spent half a day thinking specifically about our risk posture. We are losing the trustee who led this area and we need to replace them. If you have experience in governance of risk that would be great, but if you are simply interested in working with us and happy to pick up this area that is fine too.  You don’t have to have been a trustee before, but if you have been that would be good.

Responsibilities specific to this role

● To work with the members of the Finance, Risk and Governance committee to maintain a register of the critical risks that the Charity faces.

● To work with the chairs of the Board Committees to ensure that the committees are regularly assessing their risks, and regularly taking action to mitigate those risks

● To be responsible for the keeping the risk register up to date

Person Specification

Essential 

● Lived experience of LGBT+ young people and the LGBT+ community. 

● Knowledge of risk, or willingness to learn, in relation to a charity for young persons and vulnerable adults.

● Commitment to Mosaic’s vision and mission.

● Understanding of the legal responsibilities and liabilities of a Trustee; or a willingness to get that understanding very early in the role 

● Good communication skills and creative thinking 

● Sound, independent judgment and strategic vision 

● An ability to work with others

● A willingness to speak their mind persuasively but diplomatically

● Confidence to take decisions for the good of the organisation

● Willingness to devote the necessary time and effort to the duties of a Trustee 

Desirable

● Have managed a team of people

● Have an interest in corporate governance

A Trustee with skills in marketing, communications or PR

We need a Trustee with experience in marketing to join our Board and also our Marketing and Fundraising committee.  We have a part time staff member who creates our material and posts it.  We need ideas on how we might do better, reaching out to those who would benefit from what we do. You may have ideas about how we can improve our messaging, or where we could start to advertise and talk about what we do. We don’t need specific marketing skills but rather someone who is familiar with the way marketing works, who understands messaging and who has ideas on what we could do better.  If you are familiar with new trends and technologies we could be making better use of that would be great.

Responsibilities specific to this role

● To work with the members of the Marketing and Fundraising committee to improve awareness of what Mosaic does among our target audiences.

Person Specification

Essential 

● Lived experience of LGBT+ young people and the LGBT+ community.

Help us transform how the world travels! We are a pioneering travel social enterprise using global holiday getaways to fund community-led development and environmental regeneration. We need a visionary Head of Marketing to lead our brand strategy, proving that every journey can make a real difference.

The Mission: Reshaping the Journey
The travel industry faces a significant 'economic leakage' problem. While billions are spent on global holidays, only a tiny fraction reaches the local communities hosting those journeys. Yule Travel Group CIC exists to change that narrative.

We operate a unique, dual-impact model:

• The Inclusive Empowerment Hub: Providing underrepresented UK individuals with the tools, mentorship, and ethical framework to build independent livelihoods as advocates for sustainable tourism.
   

• Global Impact Initiatives: Our retail arm that facilitates world-class international holidays for the public, where 100% of the retained surplus is legally locked to fund global development.
   

Your Role as the 'Head'
We are building a marketing department consisting of three people: You (The Strategic Lead), a Content Creator, and a Partnership Outreach Lead. We don’t need you to design daily social media posts; we need you to lead the overarching strategy and ensure both 'arms' of our mission are perfectly aligned.
 

• Brand Guardianship: Overseeing the distinct brand voices of our Empowerment Hub and our Retail Initiatives, ensuring they both communicate our 'Travel for Good' ethos with radical transparency.
   

• Team Leadership: Guiding and mentoring our volunteer content and partnership creators.
   

• Campaign Strategy: Designing high-level marketing campaigns that promote global holidays (from luxury escapes to family packages), which in turn fund our 'Four Pillars of Change.'
   

The Global Impact of Your Role
Your strategic leadership will be the funding engine for our global social projects. Because of our unique CIC structure, we rely on sustainable revenue from travel to fund our missions. The more journeys we facilitate and the more independent ambassadors we empower, the more surplus we legally safeguard to fund our initiatives.
 

By leading our marketing team, your impact acts as a massive multiplier. You will directly drive the success required to scale the 'Made From The Mekong' project. This initiative delivers digital literacy and English education to learners across off-grid villages in Laos, while simultaneously funding a circular economy that repurposes river plastic.
 

The Ideal Candidate
You do not need to be from the travel industry, but you must be a strategic thinker who understands how to build and protect a premium brand architecture.
 

• 3+ Years in Marketing Leadership: Proven experience in strategy, brand management, or campaign direction.
   

• Audience Fluency: You know how to pitch an empowerment opportunity to a professional, and how to promote a world-class holiday to a consumer.
   

• The 'Anti-Greenwashing' Guardian: You have a strict ethical compass and know how to market social impact with dignity and facts.
   

• An Innovation Mindset: You want to come in at the ground floor of a dynamic social enterprise, move fast, and prove that the travel industry can be a powerful force for good.
   

Role Logistics: This is a fully remote, flexible volunteer role (4-6 hours/week). You will be managing other volunteers, not paid employees.

Bright Connections exists to end social isolation for disabled people by creating spaces where friendships can grow, confidence can flourish, and every person feels seen, valued, and connected. We bring people together through joyful activities, shared experiences, and a community built on belonging, because together, we shine brighter.

Our story began with one simple truth: no one should feel alone.

Inspired by a sister whose world had become small, isolated, and painfully quiet, Bright Connections was created to bring light back into the lives of disabled people who often feel forgotten. Many rely on others for daily care, yet still lack the one thing every human needs: friendship.

What started as one family’s determination to bring joy and connection to a loved one has grown into a movement, a movement that believes friendship is a human right, that joy should be accessible, and that community can transform lives.

We are now looking for a dynamic Marketing & Communications Lead to help us share that message with warmth, creativity, and impact.

What You’ll Lead

• Developing a fun, vibrant, empowering brand personality that reflects our joyful mission.

• Creating engaging content across social media, newsletters, and our website.

• Building a communications strategy that grows awareness, trust, and excitement.

• Designing campaigns that celebrate disabled people, amplify lived experience, and inspire community involvement.

• Crafting stories that show the power of friendship, connection, and belonging.

• Supporting the development of a consistent visual and verbal identity alongside our design volunteers.

• Helping shape the public voice of Bright Connections from the very beginning.

What We’re Looking For

• A passion for our mission and a belief in inclusive, joyful community spaces.

• Experience in marketing, communications, social media, or storytelling.

• Someone who can create a tone that feels positive, warm, empowering, and full of life.

• Strong collaboration and team‑working skills.

• A growth mindset and willingness to experiment, learn, and adapt.

• Confidence to network, advocate, and help raise the profile of Bright Connections.

• Ability to work independently in a remote, flexible environment.

What You’ll Bring

• Creative ideas that help us stand out and spread joy.

• A strategic approach to building awareness and engagement.

• A commitment to inclusive, accessible communication.

• Energy, enthusiasm, and a love of storytelling.

• An understanding of how to build a brand that feels human, warm, and community‑centred.

What You’ll Gain

• The chance to shape the public identity of a new charity from day one.

• A meaningful portfolio of purpose‑driven campaigns and content.

• Experience in charity communications, brand development, and strategic messaging.

• A supportive team who values creativity, collaboration, and heart.

• The knowledge that your work will help people feel seen, valued, and connected.

If you’re excited by the idea of creating a bold, joyful, empowering brand that changes lives, we’d love to hear from you.

Fundraising volunteers wanted to help East London Waterworks Park reach its funding goals

East London Waterworks Park is working to acquire a 14-acre, concreted-over depot on the border of Waltham Forest and Hackney, and to transform it into a ‘brownfield rainforest’ with wild-swimming pools and creative learning spaces for the local community. We are showcasing an environment-first, community-led approach to land ownership that will help nature and people thrive together, revolutionising the way we think about green and blue spaces in cities.

Our Crowdfunder raised over half a million pounds towards buying the land, but we are waiting for the landowner to make decisions about the use of the site. Whilst we wait, we need to raise money for the other work we are carrying out. We have an exciting programme of community projects and work coming up, including carrying out biodiverse transformations on other sites in London.

If you have experience of planning or running fundraising campaigns and would like to get involved with a local charity, we would love to hear from you. Perhaps you are buzzing with ideas of how to raise money or are keen to get stuck in and help to make some events happen. Maybe you are a good writer and seller of ideas and would like to join our mini team of funding bid writers. We would especially love to hear from you if you have experience of writing funding applications.

If you are a professional fundraiser and would like to help but are short on time, we would still love for you to get in touch. Even if you are unable to get deeply involved, we would appreciate one-off or ongoing advice.

We hope that people bring radical imagination, peace with nature and courageous inclusiveness to the role.

We meet once a fortnight online on a Thursday evening
