Corporate partnership manager volunteer roles

Dear Applicant,

Thank you for your interest in joining our Board at this exciting and important time for The Young Foundation.

We are currently in the second year of our five-year strategy, and the recent appointment of our new Chief Executive, Dr Sue Griffiths, who joins us on 2 March, marks a significant moment for the organisation. Sue and the Board will work closely to ensure that The Young Foundation continues to deliver against its core purpose: building a just society in which everyone can participate and all contributions are valued.

At The Young Foundation, we know that inequality diminishes lives, corrodes community wellbeing, and reduces prosperity for society. Our mission is to create the conditions in which people and communities can flourish. Working in partnership with the voluntary, community and social enterprise sector, as well as public and private sector organisations, we empower people to fulfil their potential and lead happier, more meaningful lives. Ultimately, our work seeks to unlock shared prosperity.

Very little about the future of society is inevitable. Bound by our shared humanity, we believe that we collectively hold the power to shape our communities and institutions. Drawing on over 60 years of research, innovation and incubation, we put proven tools and approaches into practice to drive meaningful and lasting change.

As an influential and pioneering organisation in our field, we are seeking new Trustees to help us build the strongest non-executive team possible. We are particularly interested in hearing from candidates from across the UK who can offer depth of insight, experience or influence in one or more of the following areas:

· Social innovation and community action

· Local or combined authorities

· Health

· Business and social entrepreneurship

· Higher education

· Political networks

· Finance (an accountancy qualification would be an asset)

· External affairs and influencing, including opinion formers

Our Trustees bring the full breadth of their professional expertise and lived experience into the Boardroom. While we have identified priority areas within our skills matrix, we are committed to building a genuinely diverse and inclusive Board. We welcome candidates who can bring varied perspectives and lived experiences, enabling us to make decisions informed by a complete and authentic picture of life across the UK.

If you believe you have the knowledge, skills and experience to contribute to our work, we would be delighted to hear from you.

About SUNSHINE Charity

SUNSHINE is a new, 100% volunteer-powered movement rewriting the story of loneliness and wellbeing in London. We exist to spark joy, nurture belonging, and create spaces where everyone feels seen, valued, and connected. Our work is bold, people-powered, and rooted in community spirit—not corporate jargon.

We’re almost ready to launch. Our charity status is imminent, our foundations are strong, and our first pilot programmes are on the horizon.

If you’re someone who loves rallying people around a cause… If you get excited about building campaigns that spark conversation and inspire action… If you want to help London rethink loneliness—not as a shameful secret, but as a shared human experience we can tackle together…

…then this role is the heartbeat of our public movement.

You’ll be our chief campaign designer, champion, and connector—leading the charge on awareness, mobilisation, and community engagement. You’ll help create the buzz, energy, and visibility that makes people want to join, volunteer, donate, and take part.

What You’ll Lead

• Campaign Design & Delivery: Create bold, joyful, high‑energy campaigns that raise awareness of loneliness and inspire people to take action.

• Movement Building: Mobilise volunteers, communities, and partners to join our campaigns and help spread SUNSHINE across London and beyond.

• Public Engagement: Lead city-wide moments—events, activations, outreach days, social campaigns—that bring people together and spark conversation.

• Storytelling for Change: Work closely with our Brand & Communications team to share real stories of connection, hope, and impact.

• Partnerships & Collaboration: Build relationships with local groups, community organisations, and businesses who want to champion our mission.

• Energy & Buzz: Create excitement around our work—helping SUNSHINE feel like a movement people want to be part of.

• Impact & Learning: Capture insights, stories, and feedback to help us understand what’s working and how our campaigns are changing lives.

Ideally, You Will Bring

• Experience in campaigns, community organising, public engagement, activism, or communications.

• A natural ability to energise people and bring them together around a shared cause.

• Creativity, confidence, and a love for designing experiences that feel joyful and accessible.

• Strong organisational skills and a people-first mindset.

• A genuine passion for tackling loneliness and improving wellbeing in our communities.

Commitment & Flexibility

This is a voluntary role with no fixed hours. We understand life comes first—your time and energy are gifts, and we’ll always work around your schedule. You can step back or stop volunteering at any time.

Interested?

If you’re excited by the idea of helping build a joyful, people-powered movement from the ground up, we’d love to hear from you. Get in touch and we’ll send you a short application form.

This is your chance to leave a real fingerprint heart on the future of SUNSHINE.

Overall, the commitment is expected to average approximately 1-2 days per month ​​(which includes attendance at UIL events) and can easily fit in with other commitments.

Time commitment: One day per week

Term: 3 years (may be appointed for a second term, maximum 6 years)

Closing Date for applications: 6th March 2026

About World Book Day

World Book Day (WBD) is a small national charity with significant reach and profile, consistently punching above our weight.  WBD champions reading for fun because it seriously improves lives.  In fact, it is the biggest indicator that a child will grow up to enjoy a happier and more successful future.  With the spotlight in this National Year of Reading on reversing the decline in children's reading, now is an exciting time to join us. 

As our current strategy enters its final phase and our 30th anniversary approaches, a new Chair would work with our board and executive team to develop and lead our new strategy and to leverage our existing strengths to realise the potential for growth in our impact. The new Chair will also support WBD's income generation activities, through attending events and philanthropy meetings and supporting corporate partnership opportunities, promoting WBD through their networks and championing donations.

This is a rare opportunity to help more children, particularly those from disadvantaged backgrounds, develop a lifelong habit of reading for fun and access the improved life chances this brings them.

What we are looking for

World Book Day's new Chair may come from a commercial, educational, public service or other background. In addition to the qualities required for a trustee, they should have the following qualities:

· A commitment to World Book Day's vision and values

Knowledge and experience:

· of senior strategic leadership (e.g. as a Chair or Committee Chair, trustee, non-executive director or senior executive)

· of charity governance and financial oversight

· of supporting, line managing and evaluating the performance of a senior leader

· to support our plans to increase and diversify WBD's income

· to work effectively with WBD's varied stakeholder landscape

· complementary or adjacent to WBD's activities, purpose and strategy

The ability to:

· lead by example

· communicate skilfully and effectively

· be an influential, inspirational and supportive leader who builds confidence and consensus

· develop partnerships and strategic alliances

· act impartially, fairly, with tact and diplomacy and respect confidences.

World Book Day welcomes candidates drawn from a range of backgrounds, experiences and characteristics.  We would like our trustees to be reflective of our society and WBD's beneficiaries.  We actively encourage applications from those currently under-represented on our board: non-binary, all ethnic groups other than white British and LGBTQ+.
