Able to take initiative and help shape a programme from the very beginning.
Committed to creating a volunteering experience that is supportive, rewarding and meaningful.
Why this role matters
Volunteers will be at the heart of SUNSHINE’s work, helping us reach more people, create more connection and build a stronger sense of community. A well-designed volunteering programme will not only help the charity grow — it will help volunteers feel proud to be part of something purposeful, inspiring and life-changing.
By leading our volunteering strategy, you will help create a community where people are valued, supported and encouraged to do their best work in service of a cause that truly matters.
When applying, please tell us:

Programme Development — helping design coaching, employability and personal development programmes
Volunteer Management — supporting recruitment, onboarding and community‑building
Partnerships & Outreach — helping build relationships with employers, community groups and supporters
Marketing & Communications — shaping our message, brand and public presence
Fundraising & Development — contributing ideas and support for future sustainability
You don’t need experience in all areas — just the willingness to contribute, collaborate and help build something meaningful.

You’ll gain:
Hands‑on experience in charity management and organisational development
The chance to shape a new charity’s strategy, culture and impact
