Offline Women is a curated community for women dedicated to providing a space for real human connection away from screens. We started as a passion project in 2025 and we are now looking for a core team of volunteers to help us expand our reach and deepen our impact.
What will you be doing?
We are looking for a strategic Partnerships Lead to help Offline Women secure the resources and spaces we need to grow. As we transition from a local meetup to a global NGO, your role is to build the bridges that make our work sustainable.
Key priorities include:
- Securing Sponsorship: Identifying and reaching out to brands, foundations, and corporate partners who align with our mission of mental well-being and digital wellness to secure financial support or in-kind donations.
- Scouting "Third Spaces": Finding and vetting physical locations (such as quiet cafes, library reading rooms, and community centers) that can serve as the homes for our phone-free gatherings.
- Corporate Collaborations: Developing partnerships with organizations that want to support "Right to Disconnect" initiatives for their employees or customers.
- Creating a Partner Toolkit: Drafting the sponsorship decks and outreach materials that explain the value of supporting a phone-free, real-world community.
What are we looking for?
We are looking for a proactive "connector" who is passionate about our mission to end digital loneliness. The ideal volunteer should be comfortable reaching out to new people and building professional relationships from scratch.
Key Skills and Experience:
- Partnership Building: Experience in sales, business development, or charity fundraising is highly valued. You should know how to pitch an idea and explain the "win-win" of a collaboration.
- Excellent Communication: You can write clear, persuasive emails and feel confident speaking with business owners or corporate social responsibility (CSR) managers.
- Organized and Resourceful: You are good at researching potential partners and keeping track of conversations and leads.
- Local Knowledge: An interest in London’s "hidden gems" and community spaces is a plus, as you will be scouting the best physical spots for our community to meet.
The most important qualities are:
- Belief in the Mission: You truly understand the importance of phone-free spaces and the need for real-world belonging.
- Persistence: You are not discouraged by a "no" and are happy to keep searching for the right match for our community.
- Professionalism: You can represent Offline Women with warmth and clarity when dealing with external organizations.
What difference will you make?
This role is the engine of our growth. By securing funding and venues, you remove the two biggest barriers to our expansion. Your work ensures that we have the financial stability to launch new chapters and the physical spaces where women can escape digital noise. You are building the foundation that allows thousands of women to move from isolation into a tribe where they truly belong.
Thank you!

Mudland is building the climate knowledge infrastructure needed to translate Indigenous and frontline intelligence into decision-ready formats for policymakers, funders, and global institutions.
Global climate policy and finance systems often overlook the structured, community-defined evidence held by Indigenous and frontline regions. This disconnect leads to adaptation funding that is misaligned with reality, treating vulnerable communities as "beneficiaries" rather than knowledge holders. In high-stakes ecosystems like the Himalayas, climate data is often extracted without being translated into the institutional language needed to influence real-world decision-making.
Mudland bridges this divide through its Climate Lab and the Himalayan Climate Watch Network. We train Indigenous researchers and storytellers to document climate indicators, developing frameworks that weave together Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) with modern climate science. By translating local evidence into usable formats for global policy and finance spaces, we ensure that frontline intelligence drives institutional action without being extracted or flattened.
Role Overview
We are looking for a Social Media & Communications Associate to help strengthen Mudland’s digital presence and storytelling across platforms.
The role will support communication around Mudland’s projects, including the Himalayan Climate Watch Network, climate storytelling initiatives, and documentary work connected to the studio.
This is a great opportunity for someone interested in climate communication, media, storytelling, and impact-driven projects.
Key Responsibilities
• Support management of Mudland’s social media platforms (Instagram, LinkedIn, etc.)
• Help develop engaging posts, captions, and visual storytelling
• Assist with announcements and communication around Mudland projects
• Support outreach for initiatives such as the HCWN Indigenous Climate Knowledge Fellowship
• Help grow the online community and engagement around Mudland’s work
• Assist in coordinating social media content with partner organisations
Who This Role Is For
We are looking for someone who:
• Has an interest in climate, storytelling, media, or social impact
• Enjoys working with social media and digital communication
• Has a creative eye for visuals and storytelling
• Is organised and comfortable working remotely
• Is proactive and open to experimenting with new ideas
Experience with social media tools or design platforms is helpful but not required.
What You Will Gain
• Experience working with an international storytelling and climate initiative
• Exposure to global conversations around climate, culture, and media
• Opportunities to develop a creative communications portfolio
• Collaboration with journalists, filmmakers, researchers, and climate practitioners
Minimum Hours per Week:
4-6 hours per week
Duration:
3-5 months
