Head of Marketing & Communications (MINDSET Charity) - VOLUNTEER ROLE
Remote | Approx. 3 hours per week | MINDSET Charity (UK)
Lead the voice, story, and national presence of a movement transforming men’s lives
MINDSET is building a new kind of men’s mental wellbeing and personal growth movement in the UK — one built on action, challenge, brotherhood, and real‑world transformation. We’re here to change the narrative for men, and we need a powerful, strategic communicator to help take this mission nationwide.
This is your chance to shape the public face of a charity that is ready to grow, ready to be seen, and ready to make a real difference.
Why This Role Matters
MINDSET’s programmes change men’s lives — but the country won’t feel that impact unless our story is told boldly, clearly, and consistently.
As Head of Marketing & Communications, you will be the architect of how MINDSET shows up in the world. Your leadership will help us:
Reach men who need us
Inspire volunteers to join us
Build trust with partners and communities
Establish MINDSET as a national voice for men’s wellbeing
This is a founding leadership role — you will help define the brand, tone, and public presence of MINDSET from the ground up.
What You’ll Lead
As our Head of Marketing & Communications, you will:
Shape and lead MINDSET’s national marketing and communications strategy
Build a strong, consistent brand identity across all platforms
Manage and grow our social media presence with purpose and clarity
Create compelling content that inspires men, volunteers, and supporters
Oversee messaging for campaigns, programmes, events, and recruitment
Support fundraising and partnership communications
Guide a small team of volunteers (designers, social media leads, content creators) as the charity grows
Ensure everything we publish reflects our mission, values, and tone
This role is remote, flexible, and ideal for someone who wants to make a meaningful impact in just a few hours each week.
Who This Role Is Perfect For
You’ll thrive in this role if you are:
A natural storyteller who understands how to move people
Strategic, creative, and confident shaping a brand from scratch
Experienced in marketing, communications, social media, or content creation
Passionate about men’s wellbeing, personal growth, and community
Excited by the idea of helping build a national movement
Someone who loves turning ideas into campaigns that resonate
You do not need charity experience. You simply need experience and clarity, creativity, and a desire to help men live fuller, healthier lives.
What You’ll Be Part Of
MINDSET is redefining what men’s wellbeing can look like in the UK. We’re building a movement that helps men grow through:
Challenge
Accountability
Brotherhood
Purpose
Real‑world action
Your work will ensure that this message reaches the men who need it most — and that MINDSET becomes a recognised, trusted, national presence.
If you want to help put MINDSET on the map across the UK…
We’d love to hear from you. Join us and help shape the voice of a movement built to change men’s lives.
To empower men across England to take charge of their mental wellbeing and personal growth through connection, conversation, and community.
