Could you use your business connections to help more people leave homelessness for good?

We're looking for well-connected business professionals in Birmingham, Bristol and Manchester to become Standing Tall Connectors.

STANDING TALL – WHAT WE DO

Standing Tall is a social business that helps people rebuild their lives after homelessness through a stable job, a safe home and one-to-one support across 8 UK cities.

Our model works: 4 out of 5 people are in work, living independently and thriving 12 months later.

As we continue to grow, we are launching a network of volunteer Connectors to help expand our reach within the business community.

THE ROLE

We are looking for purpose-driven professionals with strong business connections to become Standing Tall Connectors in Birmingham, Bristol and Manchester.

This is an unremunerated volunteer position for individuals who believe in our mission and want to use their local networks, influence and business connections to help more people leave homelessness behind for good.

Connectors will represent Standing Tall within local business communities, attend networking events, and build relationships with businesses that want to be part of the solution to homelessness, either as Employer Partners, providing permanent entry-level jobs, or as Mission Partners, whose investment of £1,000 + VAT over 12 months helps one person leave the streets for good.

This role is ideal for someone who:

• Is passionate about making a tangible social impact
• Enjoys connecting people and opening doors
• Has strong local business relationships
• Wants to contribute their skills and network to a meaningful cause

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

The primary role of a Connector is to leverage their networks, attend relevant business events and identify opportunities to engage prospective corporate partners.

While there is no prescriptive approach to the role, Connectors are expected to help secure £12,000 + VAT of Mission Partner investment annually – enough to help 12 people leave the streets for good.

This may be achieved through a number of relationships and introductions, or through a smaller number of highly engaged partners. Our focus is on creating meaningful connections that help more businesses become part of the solution to homelessness.

Connectors are also encouraged to help identify prospective Employer Partners and facilitate introductions to the Standing Tall team.

TIME COMMITMENT

Connectors will sign up for a 12 month term that starts in July.

Generally speaking, we would anticipate that Connectors will:

• Attend approximately 1–3 business events per month
• Make introductions and connections where opportunities arise
• Participate in occasional meetings with the Standing Tall Team

We are flexible and understand availability may vary.

KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS & EXPERIENCE

We are seeking individuals who:

• Believe strongly in Standing Tall’s mission and values
• Have an established network within their local business community
• Are confident communicators and relationship-builders
• Are proactive, professional and enthusiastic
• Are comfortable attending events independently and representing Standing Tall
• Can commit time consistently throughout the year

Experience in business development, partnerships, sales, leadership, entrepreneurship or community engagement would be highly valuable. 

WHAT YOU'LL RECEIVE

While this is a voluntary and unpaid role, Connectors will receive:

• The opportunity to make a meaningful difference in people's lives
• Recognition and visibility as a Standing Tall Connector
• A toolkit with key messaging and marketing collateral
• A dedicated Standing Tall contact for onboarding and ongoing support
• Opportunities to connect with local Talent Scouts and the wider Standing Tall team
• Regular updates on our impact, partnerships and progress
