Bright Connections is a start-up project that 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.
Bright Connections 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. That community can save lives.
Bright Connections is more than a charity. It’s a place where people meet, laugh, share, belong, and shine brighter together.
We are at the very beginning of our journey, and we’re looking for a skilled, proactive Project Manager to lead the full set‑up of our organisation, from concept, to charity registration, and to launch.
What you’ll lead
-
Developing a clear, structured project plan that takes Bright Connections from idea to fully operational charity.
-
Coordinating all start‑up activities, including governance, policies, compliance, and stakeholder engagement.
-
Managing timelines, risks, and priorities to ensure smooth progress toward charity registration and launch.
-
Working closely with founders and early volunteers to build processes, structure, and momentum.
-
Supporting the creation of documentation required for the Charity Commission and other regulatory bodies.
What we’re looking for
-
Experience in project management, ideally within start‑ups, charities, or early‑stage organisations.
-
Someone who thrives in a blank‑canvas environment and enjoys building systems from scratch.
-
Strong organisational and communication skills, with the confidence to lead and guide others.
-
A collaborative, mission‑driven mindset and the ability to work independently in a remote setting.
What you’ll gain
-
A chance to shape a charity from day one and leave a lasting legacy.
-
Experience in charity development, governance, and strategic planning.
-
A supportive, passionate team committed to making a real difference.
If you’re excited by the idea of building something meaningful from the ground up, we’d love to hear from you.
