Head of Volunteering - VOLUNTEER ROLE

Remote | Approx. 4 hours per week | MINDSET Charity (UK)

Transforming men’s mental wellbeing through action, challenge, and real‑world connection

MINDSET is building a new kind of men’s mental wellbeing and personal growth movement in the UK — one that speaks the language men actually respond to: doing, belonging, challenge, and shared purpose. We’re not clinical. We’re not corporate. We’re not another “sit in a circle and talk about your feelings” model. We create experiences that help men grow, connect, and rebuild confidence from the inside out.

And now, we’re looking for a Head of Volunteering to help build the people‑power behind this national movement.

Why This Role Matters

Every programme, every challenge, every breakthrough moment for a man in our community depends on one thing: volunteers who care. Your leadership will shape the culture, structure, and heartbeat of the entire volunteer team. You will be the person who ensures that every volunteer feels valued, supported, and part of something meaningful.

This is a founding role — you will help build the volunteer framework that will support men across the UK for years to come.

What You’ll Lead

As our Head of Volunteering, you will:

• Build and lead MINDSET’s volunteer programme from the ground up

• Shape a warm, energetic, stigma‑free volunteer culture rooted in belonging and purpose

• Recruit, onboard, and support volunteers across the UK

• Create simple, clear processes that help volunteers thrive

• Ensure volunteers feel connected, appreciated, and part of the mission

• Work closely with programme leads to match volunteers to the right roles

• Help build a movement that changes the way men experience wellbeing in this country

This role is remote, flexible, and designed for someone who wants to make a real 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 people‑person who loves bringing out the best in others

• Organised, reliable, and able to build simple systems that work

• Passionate about men’s wellbeing, personal growth, and community

• Someone who believes volunteers deserve dignity, clarity, and appreciation

• Excited by the idea of helping shape a national movement from its earliest days

You do not need charity experience. You do not need qualifications. You just need heart, initiative, and a desire to help men live fuller, healthier lives.

What You’ll Be Part Of

MINDSET is creating a new narrative for men in the UK — one built on strength, connection, and growth. Your leadership will directly support the delivery of programmes such as:

• Our 12‑week Self‑Improvement Programme

• Our Life Coaching Programme

• Future activity‑based wellbeing programmes and challenges

You’ll be helping to build a movement that gives men the tools, confidence, and community they’ve been missing.

If you want to help build something bold, needed, and genuinely life‑changing…

We’d love to hear from you. Join us and help shape the volunteer community at the heart of MINDSET.
