Who We Are
Our charity was established in 1992, to provide care and support to people in Sussex, living with and affected by HIV. Over the past three decades there have been huge advances in treatment and care for those affected by the virus. People taking effective anti-retroviral medication (ART’s) can live long lives, with HIV becoming undetectable and untransmittable.
Whilst people who are living with HIV can live longer, many develop other physical co-morbidities as they age and many experience social and self-stigma. Our service users are often from marginalised groups, who often experience inter-sectional discrimination and health inequalities. Many of our service users experience socio-economic disadvantage and have multiple and complex needs.
The Sussex Beacon offers a range of services to people who have been living with HIV for decades through to those who are newly diagnosed. Our services include:
· Community Nurse-led Clinical Service
· Community Outreach Support Services
· Peer Mentoring
· Living Well Exercise Programme
· Day Services and Group Work
In addition to our HIV services, The Sussex Beacon has announced that it is to become a fully inclusive Hospice, providing dedicated Hospice care to the LGBTQ+ community.

The Role
This is an exciting time for The Sussex Beacon, as we are about to launch our new 2030 Strategic Plan and move to a new era of delivery, through the evolution of our end of life and palliative care for the LGBTQ+ community. The Sussex Beacon will be the first Hospice of its kind in the country tackling stigma and health inequalities for those who are most marginalised in our community.
We’re looking for an enthusiastic and experienced Mass Participation Lead to join our Income Generation team. Working alongside the Head of Income, you’ll take the lead on planning, delivering, and growing our portfolio of mass participation events, including some of the UK’s most iconic runs:
- Brighton Half Marathon – proudly owned by The Sussex Beacon
- London Marathon
- Brighton Marathon
- Vitality 10k
- London Landmarks Half Marathon
- Great South Run
- Red Run
In addition, you’ll collaborate with the Head of Income on the development and launch of two exciting new events scheduled for 2026/2027.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead on all aspects of mass participation fundraising events, from recruitment and engagement of participants to event-day logistics and post-event stewardship.
- Develop and implement creative campaigns to maximise participant sign-ups, fundraising income, and supporter retention.
- Build strong relationships with participants, corporate partners, and event organisers to enhance The Sussex Beacon’s presence and reputation.
- Support the Head of Income in the strategic growth of the events programme and delivery of income targets.
- Work collaboratively with other members of the Senior Management team to build your understanding of our work and the needs of people living with HIV, LGBTQ+ end of life and palliative care needs and broader health inequalities in the communities we serve.
- Work collaboratively with our Volunteer Co-ordinator to ensure that events are adequately supported.
- Develop and enhance our existing celebrity/high profile runner engagement.
We particularly welcome applications from black, Asian and minority ethnic candidates, disabled candidates, and candidates with lived experience of HIV, as we would like to increase the representation of these groups at The Sussex Beacon.

This is an exciting time for The Sussex Beacon, as we are about to launch our new 2030 Strategic Plan and move to a new era of delivery, through the evolution of our end of life and palliative care for the LGBTQ+ community. The Sussex Beacon will be the first Hospice of its kind in the country tackling stigma and health inequalities for those who are most marginalised in our community.

You’ll oversee daily operations, support and coordinate volunteers, and develop systems and initiatives to help run our thriving community cycle workshop. See the job description on our website for significantly more detail about the role.
SCBP is a great place to work, with a lovely community, flexible working hours, competative salary, 3% pension contributiona and 36 days (FTE) annual leave.
The role is hands-on and community-focused, with some routine admin and organisational tasks to keep everything running smoothly. Ideal for someone proactive, practical, and community-minded who enjoys variety, problem-solving, and making a real difference through cycling.
About the role
Sheffield Community Bike Project is a not-for-profit community cycle repair workshop that aims to improve access to cycling through three main activities:
-
Free (donations appreciated) access to tools and workshop space for DIY cycle repairs, with support from our volunteer team. This includes some sessions for specific groups.
-
Offering affordable new and used parts, and refurbished second-hand bikes for sale.
-
Focussed cycle maintenance training sessions to upskill our community.
SCBP is seeking to appoint a Bike Project Manager. Working closely with the CEO, trustees and volunteers, you will play a key role in ensuring our community workshop thrives as a welcoming, organised and sustainable space.
The successful candidate will oversee the day-to-day running of the project, support and manage our volunteer team, and develop new systems and initiatives to support the organisation’s growth. Your ability to manage volunteers to assist in the behind the scenes running of the project will be key. Please see the nominal granular responsibilities of the role in the table below.
Subject to funding, we will hopefully be hiring for a “Bike Project Administrator” role in the near future. This role may be managed by the Bike Project Manager.
SCBP is at a key moment of growth. Having taken on workshop premises in September 2024, we are now working to increase the number of sessions that we run, streamline our volunteer and participant experience, and expand the breadth of provision that we offer. At the same time, as a grassroots charity, central to our ethos is nurturing a sense of community ownership and collaboration. We aim to make the project a friendly, welcoming place to volunteer for people of all backgrounds and experiences. Another key part of our culture is our “hands-on-tools approach”: participants are encouraged to do cycle maintenance themselves with help from our volunteers.
We are a flexible organisation, so if you are unsure if the job as described would work for you, or you don’t have experience in all the areas, but would be an excellent candidate for the role (we are looking for someone who can work independently, take initiative and provide strong leadership to our volunteer team), we’d like to hear from you anyway, we are open to discussion on many points.
