Chief Executive Officer (CEO) – VOLUNTEER

Flexible Role Recommended 5–10 hours per week | Shoreditch, London | Start‑Up Youth Social Mobility Charity

About REMIX

REMIX is a start‑up, youth‑led social mobility charity transforming young lives across London. Based in Shoreditch, we empower young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to unlock their potential, build confidence, and develop essential life skills through nurturing mentorship, inspiring role models, and transformative opportunities.

We are in the early stages of building something bold, vibrant, and community‑powered — and we’re looking for a visionary CEO (Volunteer) who can lead REMIX through its start‑up phase and into a thriving, sustainable future.

The Role

We are seeking a passionate, entrepreneurial, and people‑centred Chief Executive Officer (CEO) (Volunteer) to drive REMIX forward with clarity, ambition, and heart. As a start‑up charity, we are building our programmes, culture, systems, partnerships, and long‑term strategy — and your leadership will be central to shaping every part of our journey.

This is a hands‑on, collaborative role for someone who thrives in early‑stage environments, enjoys building from the ground up, and believes deeply in youth empowerment and social mobility.

Time commitment: Flexible but beneficial if around 5–10 hours per week, including:

• Bi‑monthly Board meetings

• Working groups and leadership sessions

• CEO (Volunteer) duties, planning, partnership‑building, and organisational development

Key Responsibilities

As CEO (Volunteer), you will:

• Provide inspiring, strategic leadership as REMIX grows from start‑up to established charity.

• Work closely with the Board of Trustees to develop our vision, programmes, and long‑term strategy.

• Build strong relationships with partners, funders, community organisations, and stakeholders.

• Lead on operational planning, programme development, and organisational systems.

• Shape REMIX’s culture — empowering volunteers, uplifting young people, and championing our values.

• Oversee safeguarding, risk management, and compliance with charity regulations.

• Represent REMIX externally with confidence, warmth, and credibility.

• Drive innovation, opportunity, and growth across all areas of the charity.

This role blends leadership, creativity, operational oversight, and community engagement — perfect for someone who enjoys variety and impact.

What We’re Looking For

You don’t need previous CEO experience — we welcome people stepping into senior leadership for the first time. What matters most is your passion, your drive, and your ability to lead with purpose.

We’re looking for someone who is:

• Passionate about social mobility, youth empowerment, and fairness.

• Entrepreneurial, proactive, and excited by building something new.

• A strong communicator with excellent people skills.

• Confident working collaboratively with Trustees, volunteers, and partners.

• Equally comfortable working independently and taking initiative.

• Organised, reliable, and committed to our mission.

• Compassionate, emotionally intelligent, and community‑minded.

Experience in charity leadership, youth work, programme development, fundraising, or organisational growth is beneficial — but not essential if you bring strong leadership potential and a willingness to learn.

Why Join REMIX?

• Lead a start‑up charity with huge potential and a powerful mission.

• Shape the vision, culture, and long‑term direction of a youth‑led movement.

• Build programmes, partnerships, and systems from the ground up.

• Work with passionate Trustees and volunteers who care deeply about young people.

• Gain senior leadership experience in strategy, governance, and organisational development.

• Make a meaningful, lasting impact on the lives of young Londoners.

This is your chance to lead a movement into the future.

To Empower. To Inspire. To Transform.

WANTED: THE NEXT GEN FOUNDER.

ROLE: VOLUNTEER YOUTH Co-CEO (AGE 18–25)

THE MISSION: LEAD THE STREETS. SHAPE THE BRAND.

Most charities talk about young people. URBAN YOUTH is built by them.

We don’t do "youth councils" or "advisory boards." We do Power. We are looking for a Youth Co-CEO to sit at the top table. Someone who knows what’s hitting the streets, what the community needs, and how to make a "drop" go viral.

This is your brand. This is your city. Take the keys.

As Youth Co-CEO, you aren't just an assistant—you are the Cultural Architect. You work side-by-side with the other Volunteer Co-CEO to drive the engine:

• CULTURAL LEAD: You define the "Vibe." You tell us where to drop, what the kit should look like, and how we talk to our community.

• THE STRATEGIST: You help decide which neighborhoods need us most and how we flip the script on "traditional" youth work.

• THE FACE: You represent the brand on the ground, on the "Gram," and in the boardroom.

• THE CONNECTOR: You bridge the gap between the suit-and-tie funders and the real energy of the streets.

WHO YOU ARE

• AGED 18–25: You’re in the mix. You understand the pressure, the talent, and the hustle of being young in the city today.

• VISIONARY: You don't want a "job"; you want to start a movement.

• BOLD: You aren't afraid to tell the "adults" in the room when an idea is dead or when we need to pivot.

• HUSTLER: You know how to get things done with limited resources.

WHY VOLUNTEER @ URBAN YOUTH

• Co-CEO Status: Real leadership experience that beats any degree or entry-level job.

• The Network: Direct access to CEOs, funders, and community leaders.

• The Gear: Full URBAN YOUTH "Crew" kit (Exclusive Yellow/Black drops).

• The Legacy: You aren't just "helping out"—you are co-founding the future of street-based youth work.

WE DON'T WANT A CV. WE WANT THE ENERGY.

TO APPLY:

Send us a DM, a Voice Note, or a 60-second video on WhatsApp/Email.

1. Who are you?

2. What’s the one thing the streets need right now?

3. Why are you the one to lead URBAN YOUTH?

Mavar is currently seeking a seasoned networker to join the Mavar Trustee Board as a Trustee with special responsibilities for strengthening our fundraising practice and broadening the charity’s donor base. Working with our Board and CEO, you’ll bring experience, insight and strategic guidance to help develop our fundraising capacity in support of the strategic development of the charity.

Mavar’s Mission

Founded on the belief that everyone has the right to choose their own path in life, Mavar’s central mission is to empower individuals who choose to explore opportunities beyond the strictly orthodox community to fulfil personal goals. Mavar supports our members’ efforts to achieve independence, live authentically and cope with the obstacles they may encounter as they explore options to live, work or study in the secular world – whether or not they choose to leave the Charedi community.

Mavar’s Service Users

Some men and women who have grown up in the closed world of the Charedi community hold personal and religious values that are not in line with the rest of the community. Attempts to follow their own path often bring them into direct confrontation with family, friends and neighbours who regard expressions of individualism or self-determination as heresy. These individuals fear that the community will ostracise them, leaving them feeling trapped, isolated and helpless.

Some may simply wish to explore options for obtaining a general education or improving their access to employment opportunities whilst wishing to remain within the ultra-orthodox community; others may look to divest themselves of the strictures of ultra-orthodoxy and to lead a more mainstream lifestyle. They all typically lack the everyday life skills to cope with the challenges of the secular world, which appears to them as a confusing, frightening and alien planet. Any effort to integrate with the outside, secular world is hampered by limited English language skills, cultural disorientation, lack of basic education or qualifications and negligible skills for employment.

Trustee Role Details

The day-to-day operations of Mavar are conducted by staff and volunteers under the leadership of our CEO and with the overall oversight of the Trustee Board.

Main Duties of the Fundraising Trustee:

• Contribute to the overall governance of the charity as a member of the Board of Trustees.
• Provide advice and support on fundraising strategy, ensuring income generation is planned and executed in alignment with Mavar’s budget framework and objectives.
• Act as a fundraising champion on Mavar’s board, working with the CEO and supporting other trustees to explore fundraising possibilities.
• If you have personal networks with fundraising potential, utilise them to support the work of the charity.
• Support the development of diverse fundraising streams (e.g. individual giving, trusts and foundations, community fundraising, corporate support) and advise and support with appeals and major fundraising events/campaigns.
• Act as an ambassador for the charity, promoting its work and helping to raise its profile.
• Ensure compliance with fundraising regulation and best practice, as well as Mavar’s policies and procedures.

You are expected to give at least one day per month to your role. Board meetings take place four times a year in London, with a mixture of online and in-person meetings and are complemented by occasional online or in-person feedback meetings with the CEO and the Treasurer.

Person Specification

Essential

• Commitment to the charity’s mission and values
• Understanding of the legal duties and responsibilities of charity trusteeship

• Strong communication and networking skills

Desirable

• Experience of charity fundraising
• Existing networks that could support the charity’s fundraising efforts
• Understanding of charity finance and/or marketing

Corrie Energy Partners is building a revolutionary solar tracker that increases energy yield, reduces costs, and enables dual-use land, specifically designed for northern climates.

One of the most significant obstacles to Net Zero is the massive waste of solar potential in the northern 40% of the global market. Above 40° latitude, traditional "static" panels squander 10% of total solar potential because they cannot follow the sun’s path. As a high-stakes hardware venture moving from R&D to commercial scale, the challenge is building the operational "muscles" required to turn technical success into a global market leader.

Our patented Latitude40 tracker solves the "tracking gap" by radically rethinking solar kinematics for northern regions. It unlocks up to 30% more energy per panel than static arrays and generates power during high-value peak hours when demand is highest. Our design reduces mechanical loads by 90% to ensure a 25-year lifespan in harsh conditions, while our proprietary firmware transforms solar arrays into intelligent, grid-responsive assets.

Role Overview:
We are looking for a mission-driven Manufacturing & Supply Chain Advisor to lead our transition from prototype to a scalable UK operation. You will be instrumental in securing the partners and certifications required to move our hardware from a proven invention to a commercially "bankable" global asset.

Key Responsibilities:

• Partner Sourcing: Identify and qualify UK steel fabrication partners of the right scale for our patented tripod frames.
• Commercial Negotiation: Develop and negotiate Heads of Terms that motivate suppliers while maintaining our production flexibility.
• Grants & Support: Navigate the UK manufacturing landscape to secure complementary support and grants (e.g., Made Smarter).
• Cost Optimization: Support Design for Manufacture (DfM) discussions to drive our reduction in production costs.
• Certification: Ideally, advise on UKCA certification for consumer market readiness and update the technical file to reflect this.

About You:

• Experienced in the solar sector or comparable steel-product manufacturing.
• Proven track record in UK manufacturing partner sourcing and cost reduction.
• Strong commercial background in negotiating supply agreements and Heads of Terms.
• Knowledge of the UK grant landscape and UKCA/CE certification processes.

Commitment & Impact:

• The Commitment: A part-time, unpaid remote volunteer role. We expect ~6 hours per week for 6 months.
• The Impact: You will be de-risking a groundbreaking technology that captures the "missing" 30% of the world's solar potential.
• What You Gain: Direct influence on the commercialization of deep-tech IP, working alongside a founding team with a 90-year track record in energy exits.
• Flexibility: We offer fully flexible meeting times to suit your professional schedule.

Minimum Hours per Week:

4-6 hours per week

Duration:

• Happy to be part of a team of dedicated volunteers and employees. 

• Flexible and adaptable to different events/activities 

• Open to new ideas and ways of fundraising 

How much time is expected of me? 

Our Fundraising Volunteer roles are very flexible, often certain times of the year are busier than others. You can choose your level of involvement to suit your schedule!

Support, guidance and keeping you safe 

At Cats Protection we believe our volunteers should be happy and confident in their roles. We provide support and guidance from our National Cat Centre and through our regional and local volunteer groups and teams. We offer engaging online and face-to-face training, expenses and have policies and processes to help volunteers get the most out of their time with us. 

The wellbeing of our people is important and at Cats Protection we are committed to safeguarding children, adults at risk and all those that we encounter as part of our activities.

Thank you for your support and sharing in this commitment and for everything you will do during your time with Cats Protection!
