Digital communications manager volunteer roles

Join Our Board - Help shape the future of Merton’s vibrant voluntary, community and social enterprise sector.

Merton Connected is seeking two to three new trustees to join us at an exciting time of growth.

Merton's voluntary, community, social enterprise and faith sector is full of energy, ideas and people determined to make a difference. As the borough's infrastructure charity, Merton Connected sits right at the heart of it: connecting, supporting and championing the organisations that support local people every day.

Now we want you to help shape what comes next.

Who we're looking for

We're seeking people who bring curiosity, strategic thinking, and a genuine commitment to inclusive community development. Whether this would be your first governance role or you've supported other boards before, what matters most is your perspective and your willingness to engage.

We're particularly keen to hear from people with insight or experience in:

• Charity management
• Public health, health and social care integration, or partnership working between statutory and VCS organisations
• Marketing and communications
• Digital and AI operations
• Income generation and fundraising
• Impact and performance measurement

We also warmly welcome applicants with diverse lived experience, fresh perspectives, and a strong connection to Merton. There's no single profile we're looking for, and different viewpoints make us stronger.

What you'll be doing

As a trustee, you'll help shape our strategy, strengthen good governance, and champion the voices of local organisations and residents. You'll join a collaborative, supportive board that works closely with our leadership team to ensure Merton's voluntary, community and faith sector continues to thrive.

What you'll gain

• The chance to influence local priorities and make a meaningful difference to people's lives
• Insight into how a well-connected, values-driven infrastructure charity works from the inside
• Opportunities to share your knowledge and develop your own strategic and leadership skills
• A place on a welcoming, inclusive board committed to learning and collective impact

The practical bit

Time commitment: 4–6 meetings per year (including strategy days), with occasional subgroups or events
Support offered: A full induction is provided, and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses are reimbursed.

We are actively seeking to expand our board and hope to make at least two trustee appointments over the next two months.

Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, and we may appoint additional trustees where their skills and experience complement the board.

FUNDRAISING & CSR PARTNERSHIPS MANAGER (The Growth Catalyst) - VOLUNTEER ROLE

• Location: Remote (with networking, corporate pitches, and occasional pop-up presence in the inner London area)
• Commitment: 2–3 hours per week (Highly flexible, asynchronous corporate and grant tracking)
• Salary: Voluntary (with elite corporate fundraising experience, unmatched executive CV capital, and a direct hand in financing a life-saving movement)

The Spark: Why We Need You

London is one of the most economically powerful cities on Earth. Yet underneath the glittering corporate skylines of Canary Wharf and the City, it is facing a quiet human crisis. In boroughs like Tower Hamlets, nearly 40% of our neighbors report feeling chronically lonely and isolated. For many adults aged 16+, urban isolation is a heavy, daily reality.

We are SUNSHINE, and we are here to smash that isolation with pure, unadulterated, radical positivity!

We take over public parks, unused spaces and high streets with high-vibrancy weekend pop-ups—bringing bright neon t-shirts, upbeat music, handmade positive quote cards, and literal bubble machines directly to the pavement to turn strangers into neighbours.

Our blueprint is set, our outreach channels are open, and our volunteers are ready to deploy. Now, We need our engine. We need a proactive, ambitious, and highly driven Fundraising & CSR Partnerships Manager to unlock the capital, resources, and corporate backing needed to fuel this joy revolution and keep our services 100% free.

Your Mission: What You’ll Do

As our founding Fundraising Lead, you will sit on our core Founding Committee, guiding a small task force of 3–4 volunteers to build SUNSHINE’s financial pipeline.

You will work side-by-side with the Founder to:

• Target Canary Wharf & the City: Build relationships with corporate sustainability teams and tech startups across the financial districts to pitch SUNSHINE for Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) partnerships, office fundraising days, or payroll giving.
• Secure Gifts-in-Kind: Approach local businesses, printers, and retailers to secure essential physical donations—including arts and crafts stationery, marketing print runs, clothing, or venue space for indoor winter socials
• Write the Grants: Lead the charge on researching and submitting punchy, data-driven applications for small trust funds and local micro-grants (like the National Lottery Awards for All or local council pots).
• Activate Community Giving: Manage our public digital giving platforms (like JustGiving or Buy Me A Coffee) and promote our Amazon Charity Wishlist so everyday donors can fund physical event gear easily.
• Track the Pipeline: Maintain a clean, shared Google Sheet tracking your applications, incoming donations, and corporate pitch timelines.

Who You Are (The Perfect Fit)

You do not need to be a seasoned corporate lobbyist or a professional philanthropist.

We are looking for a human who is:

• A Confident Pitcher: You are articulate, professional, and comfortable writing compelling outreach letters, speaking to local managers, or presenting a 5-slide pitch deck to corporate teams.
• Proactive & Strategic: You don't wait for funds to appear. You love mapping out opportunities—from a £500 council grant to a major Canary Wharf CSR initiative—and taking the initiative to go after them.
• Meticulously Organised: You are comfortable tracking deadlines, managing simple pipelines on spreadsheets, and coordinating a small, skilled task force to hit targets.
• Deeply Passionate About Impact: You understand that every pound or physical asset secured translates directly into more bubbles, more quote cards, and more lifelines for lonely Londoners.

Why Lead With Us?

• High-Value Corporate Exposure: You will interface directly with corporate social responsibility (CSR) executives, corporate foundations, and high-net-worth local businesses, building elite contacts across London.
• Elite CV Portfolio Power: Demonstrating that you designed and executed the founding fundraising framework for a fast-scaling London movement is an unmatched asset for any career in finance, sales, business development, or non-profit management.
• Ultimate Flexibility: Manage your emails, grant writing, and research entirely on your own terms. Fit this contribution seamlessly around your corporate career, freelance life, or studies.
• Pure Joy: You will be the financial backbone of this entire movement. Every single smile on our "Sunshine Benches" will be a direct result of the capital and resources you unlocked.

Ready to Fuel the Joy Revolution?

Let’s make something beautiful together.

To Apply: Please send a brief introductory note and a link to your LinkedIn profile or CV directly through CharityJob. Tell us a tiny bit about your professional, sales, or fundraising background and why you want to help SUNSHINE grow in the inner-London area!

As a charity, our Trustees are the governing body of our organisation. They fulfil a vital role and help ensure that the Mayor’s Fund for London delivers on its mission and purpose and uses its resources effectively. Much more than that, they help set and shape the strategy of the Charity, they live its values, and they are ambassadors on its behalf.

We are currently recruiting for 3 new Trustees.

As a charity that supports and champions better outcomes for young people in London, we are especially interested in recruiting some new trustees aged 24-30. This may be through direct experience of the challenges young Londoners are facing, through experience and knowledge of our programmes and activities, and/or a desire to take a step into a strategic governance role with a charity whose mission matters to them.

The Board already has a wide range of diversity, experience and expertise, and we are keen to continue to broaden that experience through this recruitment. In particular, we are looking for some knowledge in:

•  Charity Finance 
•  Data and Technology 
•  Funding and Income Generation 

At the Mayor’s Fund for London, we want our Trustees to feel part of our team. To bring insights and experience into our organisation, and to be prepared to work collaboratively with staff and young people, to shape opportunities for the future.

The Board meets four times per year (March, July, September, and December), and has one sub-committee covering Finance, Audit and Risk (FAR), which meets two weeks before the Board. Trustees are expected to attend all full Board meetings, and those nominated to join the FAR Committee are expected to attend those meetings too. All of our meetings are currently online to allow flexibility, and there is an expectation that, from time to time, Trustees will engage with the staff team and be present at our events.

• Commitment: 3–5 hours per week (Flexible, asynchronous monthly sprints)
• Salary: Voluntary (with infinite good vibes, portfolio-building power, and a direct hand in saving lives)

The Spark: Why We Need You

London is one of the most electric, bustling cities on earth. Yet right now, underneath the noise, it is facing a quiet crisis. In boroughs like Tower Hamlets, nearly 40% of our neighbors report feeling chronically lonely and isolated. For young adults aged 16+, urban isolation is a heavy, daily reality.

We are SUNSHINE Charity, and we are here to smash that isolation with pure, unadulterated, radical positivity!

We don't do boring, clinical forms or awkward networking. Instead, we take over public parks and high streets, community spaces and unused spaces with high-vibrancy pop-ups—bringing bright neon t-shirts, upbeat music, handmade positive quote cards, and literal bubble machines directly to the pavement to turn strangers into neighbors.

Our vision is locked, our digital assets are buzzing, and our community is ready. Now, we need our operational anchor. We need an inspiring, organised, and deeply empathetic Project Manager to step into a founding leadership seat, steer our task forces, and successfully launch our very first pilots.

• An Organisational Wizard: You love a clean timeline, a structured folder, and the satisfying feeling of ticking off a milestone.
• A Natural Energizer: You lead with warmth, empathy, and clarity. You know how to make volunteers feel valued, heard, and excited to contribute.
• A Proactive Problem Solver: You don't wait for permission to be brilliant. You see a logistical gap and instinctively bridge it with a simple, smart solution.
