Evaluation and impact manager volunteer roles

WANTED: THE ARCHITECT.

ROLE: VOLUNTEER CEO | MISSION: LEAD THE DROP.

URBAN YOUTH isn’t a community centre. We don’t have four walls, and we don’t wait for permission. We are a high-octane, street-based intervention brand. We drop youth work like limited-edition trainers—mobile, agile, and high-impact.

We’ve got the vision. We’ve got the street cred. Now, we need the Power.

We are looking for a Volunteer CEO to be the engine behind the movement. This isn't a "sit-in-the-office" role. This is for the visionary who wants to build a legacy from the pavement up.

As our Volunteer CEO, you are the Chief Catalyst. You aren't just managing a charity; you are scaling a brand.

Your KPIs:

• THE DRIVE: Leading the strategic "Deployment Map" for our city-wide drops.

• THE POWER: Securing the fuel (funding and partnerships) to keep the van moving.

• THE VOICE: Being the face of URBAN YOUTH to stakeholders, donors, and the industry.

• THE BUILD: Scaling our "Pop-Up" model from a local intervention to a national blueprint.

Who you are:

• Unstoppable Energy: You have the "Founder & Entrepreneur Mentality." You see a brick wall and find a way over it.

• Business Brain, Street Heart: You understand high-level strategy but can talk to a 16-year-old on a street corner with zero ego.

• Networker: You know how to open doors that others find locked.

• Disruptor: You’re bored of "traditional" youth work. You want to change the game.

What you'll do:

• Own the Brand: Total creative and strategic freedom to shape the future of URBAN YOUTH.

• The Crew: Leading a team of elite "Field Agents" and creatives.

• The Impact: Direct, visible change in the streets of London.

• The Legacy: Building a brand that young people actually want to wear and be a part of.

READY TO DEPLOY?

We don't want a 10-page CV. We want to know your DRIVE.

TO APPLY:

Send us a 60-second "Pitch" video or a 1-page "Vision Manifest" to show us how you’re going to power the next drop.

Role: Charity Startup Project Team (Voluntary)
Commitment: ~4–6 hours per week (Shared across the team / Highly Flexible)
Status: Conception to Launch Phase

The Mission

We have the vision and now we need the Engine.
YCAS (Youth Counselling and Advice Service) is a startup in its purest form. We are assembling a high-impact Project Team to work alongside our Founder and Trustees to handle the "heavy lifting" of the next 12 months. This isn't just about giving advice; it’s about doing the work that opens our doors to Ealing’s young people.

The "Launchpad" Agenda

As part of the Project Team, you will divide and conquer the critical milestones of a charity startup.

You will work on:

• The Foundation: Assisting the Board with Charity Commission registration and drafting our first governing documents.
• The Blueprint: Helping to build the "Service Model"—what does a typical day at YCAS look like? How do young people refer themselves?
• The Hub: Researching and scouting for a safe, accessible physical space in Ealing to call home.
• The Voice: Creating our initial "Launch Brand," social media presence, and local community outreach plans.
• The Safety Net: Helping the Safeguarding Trustee develop robust, youth-centered policies and procedures.
• The Fuel: Assisting with initial small-scale fundraising, grant research, and local business partnerships.

Who We’re Looking For

We are building a multidisciplinary team. You don't need to be an expert in everything; you just need to be an expert in getting things done.

We need:

• Organisers: People who love a spreadsheet and a "To-Do" list.
• Communicators: Creative writers or social media whizzes.
• Networkers: People who know Ealing and love talking to local partners.
• Problem-Solvers: Individuals who aren't phased by the "startup" hurdles of a new organisation.

Volunteer-Proofing: How We Work Together

• Modular Tasks: We won't dump a whole project on you. We break things into "bite-sized" missions that fit your schedule.
• The Power of the Pack: You’ll never work alone. You’ll be part of a supportive team that shares the load.
• Defined Launch Date: This role is focused on the conception-to-launch phase, giving you a clear sense of beginning, middle, and end.

​What You’ll Gain

• Startup Pedigree: The rare experience of building a charity from a blank page.
• Skill Diversification: Experience in governance, operations, marketing, and fundraising.
• A Legacy: A seat at the table for the birth of a service that will support thousands of young people for years to come.

How to Join the Team

Please send a short emailwith your CV and a Covering Letter, telling us which part of the "Launchpad Agenda" excites you most and what skills you’d love to contribute. No long forms—just a conversation to see if we’re a match.
