HELP US LAUNCH MINDSET — AND BUILD THE DIGITAL SYSTEMS THAT POWER OUR MISSION
We’re ideally seeking volunteers based in London, but we welcome passionate people from across England who can join virtually and help shape the future of a charity with huge potential.
We’re MINDSET Charity, a bold new start‑up in London on a mission to equip and empower men and boys with the tools they need for better mental health, stronger resilience and long‑term personal growth.
We’re building a stigma‑free movement — a space where men and boys can learn real, practical, non‑clinical skills that help them build better habits, better mindsets and better lives. From 1:1 Life Coaching, to 6‑ and 12‑week self‑improvement programmes, to school workshops for teenage boys, we’re creating something powerful.
And right now, we’re getting ready to launch — and we need an IT & Digital Systems Coordinator who can build the digital infrastructure that keeps MINDSET running safely, smoothly and professionally.
YOUR IMPACT WILL BE HUGE
Joining MINDSET at this early stage means you’re not just “doing IT” — you’re building the systems that will support every volunteer, every programme and every young person or man we help.
Your leadership will directly influence:
how strong and secure our digital foundation becomes;
how effectively we track impact, case notes and programme outcomes;
how smoothly volunteers can work across our platforms;
how safe and protected our data and devices remain;
how quickly and confidently we can launch our charity.
This is your chance to help build a charity from the ground up — shaping its digital infrastructure, its security and its future.
THE ROLE: IT & DIGITAL SYSTEMS COORDINATOR (VOLUNTEER)
As our IT & Digital Systems Coordinator, you’ll research, create and set up the free digital tools that power MINDSET — from cloud‑based CRMs and case‑note systems to impact‑tracking platforms and volunteer management tools.
You’ll configure our Office 365, emails and SharePoint so they’re secure, organised and built for charity use. You’ll lock down our devices — laptops, tablets and phones — so they’re protected, purpose‑built and safe for storing sensitive data.
This role is perfect for someone who loves tech, enjoys problem‑solving and wants to help build a charity from the ground up.
WHAT YOU’LL HELP US BUILD
1. Digital Systems & Infrastructure
Researching and setting up free cloud‑based CRM platforms.
Creating case‑note recording systems to track impact.
Building digital workflows that support volunteers and programmes.
Ensuring systems are simple, secure and fit for purpose.
2. Office 365, Email & SharePoint Setup
Configuring Office 365 for charity use.
Setting up secure email accounts and access levels.
Building a structured, safe SharePoint Drive.
Ensuring everything is compliant, organised and easy to use.
3. Device Configuration & Security
Setting up laptops, tablets and phones for MINDSET use only.
Locking devices so they cannot be used for other purposes.
Ensuring all data is encrypted, protected and secure.
Implementing best‑practice security measures.
4. Digital Support & Volunteer Enablement
Helping volunteers navigate systems with confidence.
Troubleshooting issues and keeping everything running smoothly.
Creating simple guides, walkthroughs and support materials.
Making sure every volunteer feels supported and capable.
5. Building a Strong Digital Foundation
Creating systems future teams can rely on.
Supporting risk management and data protection.
Helping MINDSET grow safely, professionally and sustainably.
WE’RE NOT JUST LOOKING FOR ANYONE
We’re especially interested in people who:
have experience with IT systems, cloud platforms or digital tools;
enjoy researching, testing and building new digital solutions;
understand data security, device protection and good digital practice;
bring clarity, structure and problem‑solving skills;
care deeply about men’s mental health, wellbeing and personal growth;
want to help build a charity from scratch;
enjoy empowering volunteers through simple, effective systems.
If you’re someone who loves building systems, solving problems and creating digital foundations — this is your moment.
