About the Role

We're looking for an enthusiastic and proactive Volunteer Coordinator to join our People team and play a key role in growing, supporting and celebrating our incredible volunteer community.

Volunteers are at the heart of everything we do. As Volunteer Coordinator, you'll oversee the entire volunteer journey, from attraction and recruitment through to onboarding, development, engagement and recognition. You'll be the central point of contact for volunteers across the organisation, ensuring they have a positive and rewarding experience while helping us continue to expand and strengthen our volunteer programme.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who is passionate about people, community engagement and creating opportunities that make a real difference. Working closely with managers across the organisation and alongside the Head of People, you'll help shape the future of volunteering and ensure our programme reflects best practice, inclusivity and organisational priorities.

If you love building relationships, improving processes and championing the value of volunteers, we'd love to hear from you.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Manage the full volunteer lifecycle, including attraction, recruitment, onboarding, induction, training, engagement and recognition.
  • Act as the first point of contact for volunteers, providing support, guidance and responding to queries and feedback.
  • Partner with managers across the organisation to identify volunteer opportunities, develop meaningful roles and support effective volunteer management.
  • Support initiatives to diversify our volunteer workforce and reduce barriers to volunteering.
  • Build relationships with community organisations, education providers and local networks to increase volunteer engagement and attract new volunteers.
  • Maintain accurate volunteer records, compliance documentation and reporting data, ensuring GDPR requirements are met.
  • Coordinate volunteer communications, events, recognition activities and development opportunities to keep volunteers engaged and connected.
  • Analyse volunteer data and key metrics, including volunteer numbers, retention and diversity information, using insights to drive continuous improvement.
  • Work alongside the Head of People to develop and implement volunteering strategies that support organisational growth and impact.
  • Support the wider HR and Recruitment team when required.

Since job descriptions cannot be exhaustive, the post holder may be required to undertake other duties broadly in line with the responsibilities outlined above.

What We're Looking For

  • Experience of managing or coordinating volunteers and supporting the volunteer lifecycle.
  • A confident communicator with excellent relationship-building and stakeholder engagement skills.
  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities and work independently.
  • Experience reviewing, developing and improving processes.
  • Ability to coach, support and influence managers and colleagues.
  • Proactive, solutions-focused and motivated to drive positive change.
  • A genuine passion for volunteering, community engagement and helping people thrive.
  • Ability and willingness to travel to locations across the South West when required.

There are many great reasons to join our team!

  • Great opportunities for career development and free monthly training sessions from experienced facilitators
  • Wellbeing related support/advice, and up to 6 free counselling sessions through our Employee Assistance Programme
  • 27 days annual leave, including an extra day off for your birthday, plus bank holidays - increasing up to 30 days after 4 years of continuous employment (pro rata for part-time staff)
  • 30% staff discount at Julian House charity shops
  • 20% staff discount at Julian House bike workshops
  • A generous and competitive pension scheme
  • A supportive culture where staff feedback is highly valued and regular supervisions with line managers are conducted
