Volunteer Operations Director

Stand beside our Founder. Shape a movement. Transform futures across London.

London is a city bursting with talent — yet thousands of adults are still locked out of opportunity simply because of the postcode they were born in or the barriers they’ve had to face.

Unlock YOUR Potential is here to rewrite that story.

We’re building a new charity with one mission: to give adults from socio‑economically disadvantaged backgrounds the skills, tools, confidence and opportunities they need to thrive in the workforce — and in life.

And at this defining moment, we’re searching for a visionary Volunteer Operations Director to help turn this mission into a powerful, long‑lasting force for change.

This isn’t just a role. It’s a chance to build something that will change lives for generations.

Why This Role Matters

We are a brand‑new London charity dedicated to empowering adults through:

• Career coaching

• Employability and workplace skills

• Personal development

• Wellbeing support

• Life coaching

• Mentoring

• Access to real, sustainable opportunities

But to deliver these life‑changing programmes, we need strong operational leadership — someone who can stand shoulder‑to‑shoulder with our Founder and help build the systems, culture and foundations of a charity designed to create long‑term social mobility.

Your leadership will be the engine that turns vision into impact.

What You’ll Do

As our Volunteer Operations Director, you will be the operational heartbeat of the organisation.

You will:

• Build and refine the internal systems that keep the charity running smoothly

• Support the Founder in strategic planning and organisational development

• Oversee day‑to‑day operations and ensure excellence across all functions

• Develop policies, processes and frameworks rooted in our values

• Coordinate teams, volunteers and projects for seamless delivery

• Prepare the charity for launch, growth and long‑term sustainability

• Bring clarity, structure and momentum to a fast‑moving start‑up environment

This is a rare opportunity to help build a charity from the ground up — shaping not just what we do, but who we become.

What You’ll Gain

This role offers purpose, leadership and personal growth in equal measure.

You’ll gain:

• Senior‑level operational and strategic experience

• A close working partnership with the Founder and Executive Director

• Influence over the direction, culture and identity of a new charity

• Experience in governance, compliance and organisational development

• A powerful leadership role that elevates your CV and career trajectory

• The deep fulfilment of knowing your work directly transforms lives

This is the kind of experience that defines careers — and strengthens communities.

Who You Are

You’re someone who:

• Thrives on structure, organisation and strategic thinking

• Enjoys building systems, solving problems and creating order

• Has leadership experience or strong leadership potential

• Wants to be part of something meaningful from day one

• Believes deeply in equality, opportunity and social justice

• Can give a few hours a week to help shape a charity with huge potential

You don’t need to know everything. You just need commitment, initiative and a heart for impact.

Your Impact

Your leadership will help create:

• Coaching programmes that rebuild confidence

• Skills workshops that open new career paths

• Mentoring relationships that change lives

• Wellbeing support that restores hope

• Opportunities that break cycles of disadvantage

Your work becomes the foundation on which people rebuild their futures — and unlock their potential.
