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’re in the exciting early stages of building something bold, vibrant, and community‑powered — and we’re looking for a Chair who wants to help shape a movement from the ground up.

The Role

We are seeking a dynamic, compassionate, and forward‑thinking Chair of the Board of Trustees to guide REMIX through its formative years. As a start‑up charity, we are building our governance, culture, systems, and long‑term strategy — and your leadership will be central to this journey.

Time commitment: 4–8 hours per month, including:

• Bi‑monthly Board meetings

• Working groups and sub‑committees

• Chair duties, preparation, and leadership responsibilities

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in early‑stage environments, enjoys shaping structure and direction, and believes deeply in youth empowerment and social mobility.

Key Responsibilities

As Chair, you will:

• Provide strategic leadership to the Board during a crucial start‑up phase.

• Ensure strong governance, clarity of purpose, and alignment with REMIX’s mission and values.

• Support and empower Trustees, fostering a collaborative, inclusive, and high‑performing Board culture.

• Work closely with the Founder, the CEO and Team to develop systems, policies, and long‑term sustainability.

• Lead Board meetings with clarity, fairness, and purpose.

• Champion REMIX externally, helping build partnerships, credibility, and community trust.

• Uphold the highest standards of integrity, transparency, and accountability.

What We’re Looking For

You don’t need previous Chair experience — we welcome people stepping into leadership for the first time. What matters most is your commitment to young people and your ability to lead with heart.

We’re looking for someone who is:

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

• A strong communicator and facilitator.

• Confident in governance, decision‑making, and strategic thinking.

• Comfortable in start‑up environments where systems are still being built.

• Compassionate, emotionally intelligent, and community‑minded.

• Organised, reliable, and committed to our mission.

Experience in charity governance, safeguarding, youth work, community leadership, or organisational development is beneficial but not essential.

Why Join REMIX?

• Play a central role in shaping a start‑up charity with huge potential.

• Help build the foundations of a movement that champions equity, compassion, and opportunity.

• Influence governance, culture, and long‑term strategy from day one.

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

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

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

This work supports the early foundations of a scalable platform designed to support hundreds of Circular Kitchens members over time. The role may also include light “vibe programming,” using AI tools to assist with formulas and logic within Coda tables.

An Ideal Candidate Will Be:

• A student or recent graduate with an interest in computer science, sustainability, business, data analytics, or a related field

• Comfortable working with evolving, early-stage systems

• Well organised with strong attention to detail

• Interested in digital systems, platforms, or operational design

• Curious about startups, social enterprise, and/or sustainability

• Interested in learning and using AI tools to support “vibe programming” and contribute to more complex platform development over time

This is a voluntary role with a flexible time commitment, offering the opportunity to contribute to the operational backbone of a growing social enterprise and work closely with the founding team on systems designed to have real-world impact.

To apply, please share your CV along with a short note outlining your interest, any relevant experience, and your desired time commitment.

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
• Knowledge and experience of fundraising (e.g. trusts, corporates, major donors, community fundraising, or digital campaigns)
• Strategic thinker, able to balance long-term planning with practical advice
• 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
• Familiarity with Jewish cultural context

SUNSHINE is almost ready to launch. Our charity status is imminent, our foundations are strong, and our first pilot programmes are just around the corner. Now we’re looking for a brilliant, thoughtful, impact‑minded leader to help shape the services we deliver — and ensure they truly brighten people’s lives.

If you love turning ideas into experiences, shaping programmes that feel warm and welcoming, and measuring impact in a way that honours real human stories — this role has your fingerprint heart all over it.

About SUNSHINE

SUNSHINE is London’s new volunteer‑powered movement for connection, belonging, and brighter days. Our symbol is a yellow fingerprint heart — because every person is unique, every story matters, and every act of kindness leaves a mark.

We’re building a charity that feels human, joyful, grassroots, and full of warmth — and we need someone who can help shape the services at the heart of our mission.

The ROLE

• Support volunteer‑led delivery in parks, libraries, estates, and community venues.
• Gather stories, insights, and learning to help SUNSHINE grow.
• Make sure our services are safe, smooth, and ready for launch.

This is a role for someone who loves designing experiences that make people feel seen, supported, and connected.

You might be perfect if you:

• Have experience in service design, programme development, community work, or impact measurement.
• Love shaping activities that feel warm, simple, and human.
• Understand how to balance structure with creativity.
• Can design light‑touch, meaningful ways to capture impact.
• Enjoy working collaboratively and compassionately.
• Want to help launch a charity that leads with heart.

You don’t need to have been a Head of Services before — just bring your experience, your insight, and your sunshine.
