Job description
Volunteer Role: Personal Development & Life Skills Programme Manager
Join a movement built on care, dignity, and community.
Unlock YOUR Potential is launching in Newham and Tower Hamlets — and we’re looking for an empowering, organised, people‑centred Personal Development & Life Skills Programme Manager to lead the sessions that help adults rebuild confidence, strengthen wellbeing, and develop the everyday skills needed to move forward.
We are a 100% volunteer‑led organisation supporting adults aged 18–67 who face barriers to employment, education, confidence, and wellbeing. Our programmes are trauma‑informed, community‑based, and rooted in human connection.
If you believe personal growth begins with safety, dignity, and encouragement — this role is for you.
What You’ll Do
As our Personal Development & Life Skills Programme Manager, you will:
-
Lead the planning, coordination, and delivery of personal development and life‑skills sessions
-
Support volunteers delivering workshops on confidence, resilience, communication, budgeting, digital basics, wellbeing, and everyday life skills
-
Ensure all sessions reflect our trauma‑informed, person‑centred values
-
Develop simple, accessible session plans, resources, and tools to support consistent, high‑quality delivery
-
Work closely with the Volunteer Programme Manager and Head of Service Delivery to schedule sessions and match volunteers to roles
-
Build supportive relationships with participants, helping them feel welcomed, motivated, and safe
-
Track attendance, engagement, and progress to support our monitoring and evaluation
-
Gather feedback from volunteers and participants to continuously improve the programme
This is a leadership role where your work will directly shape the confidence, wellbeing, and life readiness of adults across East London.
What We’re Looking For
You’ll thrive in this role if you are:
-
Warm, organised, and values‑driven
-
Experienced in personal development, coaching, adult learning, wellbeing, or community support
-
Skilled at coordinating people, sessions, and learning journeys
-
Confident supporting volunteers and ensuring safe, high‑quality delivery
-
Passionate about trauma‑informed, person‑centred practice
-
Ready to help build something meaningful from the ground up
Experience in employability, mentoring, or life‑skills education is helpful — but heart, clarity, and commitment matter most.
Why Join Us
-
Be part of a new, community‑powered movement
-
Shape the personal development journey for participants from day one
-
Work alongside people with lived experience, empathy, and heart
-
Gain programme management experience in a growing charity
-
Make a real difference to adults who feel unseen and unsupported
Time Commitment
- 4–8 hours per week, flexible
- Based in London (with hybrid options)
We Welcome You
We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, especially those with lived experience of the barriers our participants face.

Job description
Are you ready to build a legacy that saves lives?
In England today, too many men are fighting silent battles. They are navigating the complexities of mental health and personal growth without a compass or a tribe. At MINDSET, we are changing that narrative. We believe that through brotherhood, community, and intentional self-improvement, every man can reclaim his strength and purpose.
We have the vision. We have the board. Now, we need the Growth Architect.
The Volunteer Opportunity: Business Development Manager (Volunteer)
As our first-ever Business Development Manager, you won’t just be "finding leads"—you will be the engine of our expansion. You will identify opportunities for growth, forge strategic partnerships, and secure the relationships that will put MINDSET on the map across every city in England. You are the one who turns our mission into a sustainable, national movement.
Who You Are
We aren't looking for a CV; we’re looking for a character. We need a strategist who is:
-
A Natural Entrepreneur: You thrive in a "start-up" environment. You see a new charity and immediately start mapping out how to scale its impact.
-
A Master Connector: You have the people skills to walk into any room—be it a corporate boardroom or a community hub—and inspire people to get behind our cause.
-
A Person of Action: You are results-oriented. You have the passion and dedication to take our key milestones and turn them into tangible, long-term growth.
-
A Believer: You are deeply committed to men’s mental health and believe that personal growth is the most valuable investment a man can make.
The Volunteer Role
Working directly with the Founder and CEO, you will lead the charge in "opening doors." You’ll develop our growth strategy, seek out corporate social responsibility (CSR) partnerships, and identify new avenues to bring our brotherhood to the men who need it most. You are the bridge between where MINDSET is today and where it will be tomorrow.
Why Join Us?
This is a chance to be there at the "Day One" of something massive. You will have a seat at the table, helping to steer the direction of a charity with national ambitions. You’ll gain high-level experience in nonprofit scaling and strategic networking, but more importantly, every partnership you secure will provide a lifeline for a father, a brother, or a son.
"A man’s mindset is the foundation of his future. Help us build the partnerships that make that foundation unbreakable."
If you have the business acumen to lead and the heart to serve, we want to hear from you. Help us turn the tide on men’s mental health by building the future of MINDSET.
