Time Commitment: 12 months minimum | Part-time | Flexible hours
About the Role
We are seeking a volunteer Head of HR to lead and oversee our HR function at a pivotal time in YouthAdvantage UK’s ambition to become a registered charity.
Reporting into the Chief People Officer, you’ll provide strategic leadership to a multi-layered HR structure, directly managing our HRBP Lead and HR Managers, and overseeing five core teams that support the organisation’s people and culture strategy.
This is an ideal opportunity for an experienced HR leader who wants to give back by mentoring the next generation of HR professionals, shaping policy and practice, and helping us build a strong, inclusive, and values-led volunteer workforce across the UK.
Please note: This is a voluntary and unpaid role. There is no direct financial compensation or future paid opportunity attached.
Key Responsibilities
•Provide overall leadership to the HR function, ensuring alignment with the organisation’s mission and values.
•Manage and coach HRBP Lead and HR Managers to ensure smooth delivery across all people-related functions.
•Oversee and guide the five core HR teams:
oRecruitment – ensuring effective onboarding of skilled and diverse volunteers.
oLearning & Development – supporting volunteer upskilling and capability-building.
oVolunteer Relations – maintaining engagement, support, and wellbeing.
oPolicy – upholding inclusive, clear, and robust HR governance.
oEngagement – fostering culture, recognition, and retention.
•Partner with the Chief People Officer on strategic planning, workforce design, and key organisational initiatives.
•Lead succession planning and ensure continuity across all volunteer HR roles.
•Monitor performance and facilitate cross-team collaboration.
•Champion inclusive, accessible practices across the organisation.
What We're Looking For:
We’re looking for someone who’s experienced enough to hit the ground running and humble enough to grow with us.
You’ll be most successful in this role if you have:
•Solid operational HR experience, ideally across generalist and specialist areas such as recruitment, employee relations/law, L&D, and policy.
•Previous line management experience, with a demonstrable record of supporting and developing HR team members or volunteers.
•A practical, sleeves-rolled-up approach - someone who is hands-on, accessible, and able to get things done in a busy, volunteer-led environment.
•A strategic mindset, but also the willingness to dig into day-to-day HR activity and problem-solving.
•A collaborative, coaching-ready attitude - this is a great opportunity for someone who has enough experience to stand on their own feet, but is open to being coached by the Chief People Officer to further develop their leadership style.
•Good communication and people skills, with the ability to work across different functions and with a wide range of volunteers.
•An interest in or understanding of the third sector and volunteer engagement is a bonus, but not essential.
•Experience working remotely or in hybrid teams is helpful.
•Above all, a genuine passion for youth empowerment and a belief in what we’re building at YouthAdvantage UK.

Are you passionate about Jesus and gospel outreach into London?
Are you looking for a rewarding opportunity to serve as a Trustee or as an Independent Sub-Committee Member?
Then London City Mission would like to hear from you!
London City Mission serves the church of London in sharing the love of God and the good news of Jesus Christ with the communities least likely to hear the Gospel.
One in three people don’t have a Christian friend to invite them to church, open a Bible with them, or tell them the good news of Jesus. We want to see that change. The poor areas of London are incredibly diverse, in fact London is the most ethnically diverse in the world, growing at over 100,000 people a year. The world has come to London – we long to see the Gospel taken to the world by working alongside churches to visit homes and go out into the streets of London with the good news of the Gospel.
Our monthly team gatherings are full of testimonies of how God is working amongst the communities least likely to hear the Gospel, and our deep conviction is that much more needs to be done – and can be done – at this urgent hour for London.
We are seeking to make up to five appointments; a mixture of Trustees (likely time commitment: 10-12 days a year) and Independent Sub-Committee Members (likely time commitment: 4 days a year). Individuals who bring expertise in one or more of the following areas:
Safeguarding – someone with safeguarding expertise who can provide strategic oversight, ensure robust policies and reporting procedures, and champion a culture of safety across the organisation.
HR - someone with HR expertise who can support organisational people practices, strengthen workforce policies, and provide strategic insight on recruitment, performance, and staff wellbeing.
Fundraising – someone with fundraising expertise who can guide income-generation strategy, strengthen donor relationships, and support LCM to diversify and grow its funding base.
Property – someone with professional property expertise who can advise on asset optimisation, and support strategic decisions regarding sales, leases, and maintenance.
Finance – most likely a qualified Accountant with strategic financial leadership skills and a passion to see resources deployed for Kingdom-purpose.
Through these roles the successful candidate will be able to make a difference in London for the salvation of souls and to the glory of God.
We appreciate the rich diversity of our Trustees, Sub-Committee Members and Staff and seek to create a culture where everyone develops and fulfils their potential. We recognise the immense value of different perspectives brought by those with varied backgrounds, characteristics and experiences. We particularly welcome applications from under-represented sections of the community (specifically in our context, individuals of Global Majority Heritage and those at an earlier stage of career).
In order to support greater diversity of experience and career stages, we encourage those earlier in their career to consider an Independent Sub-Committee Member role as a pathway to Trusteeship.

If you care about equity in the arts, believe creative talent should thrive in Bradford, and want to play a part in shaping cultural change locally and nationally, we’d love to hear from you.
Bradford Producing Hub is an artist-led charity working to dismantle barriers in the arts and build more equitable systems in their place. Our vision is a just and joyful cultural future – powered by people, rooted in place, and open to all.
We support artists and creatives through development programmes, sector advocacy and strategic partnerships. We work locally in Bradford and influence nationally.
Who we’re looking for
We’re particularly interested in people with experience in:

If you don’t have the specific experience listed above, but your values and outlook closely align with the work of Bradford Producing Hub, we’re very much interested in hearing from you.
We are also actively seeking voices that represent the Bradford district, and we particularly welcome applications from people from the Global Majority*, including Black, Asian and ethnically diverse communities who are underrepresented in arts leadership and governance. We equally welcome applications from people who are LGBTQIA+, disabled**, and/or from working-class or low socio-economic backgrounds.
We are committed not only to diversifying representation, but to ensuring trustees feel valued, heard and able to shape decisions meaningfully. BPH is radical, kind, equity-driven and community-spirited. We are committed to anti-racist and anti-ableist practice, recognising that structural racism and ableism continue to shape the arts sector. We are actively working to challenge this within our governance and partnerships, and we expect trustees to share that commitment.
We know that joining a board can feel daunting, particularly where governance spaces have not always felt welcoming. We are committed to providing induction, support and space for all trustees to contribute confidently and meaningfully.
If you have ever looked at arts leadership and felt it did not reflect you, this is an invitation to help change that.
What does being a trustee involve?
Trustees shape our long-term strategy, influence cultural policy, and hold the organisation to account in line with our charitable aims.
You don’t need previous board experience. Collective leadership at BPH is built on shared responsibility, openness and learning together. We provide induction and ongoing development and training.
Commitment includes:
- Around four board meetings per year
- Preparation and reading in advance
- Occasional additional support or sub-group involvement
While the role is unpaid, we cover expenses and provide a role that offers valuable non-executive directorial experience, which includes:
- Professional skills development contributing to career enhancement
- Personal fulfilment through volunteering your time and expertise to an organisation you value, supporting it to realise its goals
- Expanding your professional network while working with like-minded people to support the creative and cultural sector in Bradford

We’re in the exciting early stages of building something bold, vibrant, and community‑powered — and we’re looking for a Head of People, Culture & Development who wants to help shape the human side of this movement from the ground up.
The Role
We are seeking a passionate, people‑focused, and values‑driven Head of People, Culture & Development to lead REMIX’s volunteer experience, culture, and people systems as we grow through our start‑up phase and beyond. This is a hands‑on, collaborative role for someone who loves building inclusive environments, supporting others to thrive, and creating the conditions for a healthy, empowered organisation.
You will work closely with the CEO, COO, and Board to shape REMIX’s culture, develop people‑focused processes, and ensure every volunteer, mentor, and young person feels valued, supported, and inspired and help put structures and processes in place to prepare us to become an employer in the very near future.
Time commitment: 5–10 hours per week, including:
-
Bi‑monthly Board meetings
-
Working groups and leadership sessions
-
People, culture, and development tasks, duties and responsibilities
Key Responsibilities
As Head of People, Culture & Development, you will:
-
Lead the development of REMIX’s people strategy, culture, and volunteer experience.
-
Build inclusive, empowering systems for recruitment, onboarding, training, and development.
-
Support the CEO and COO in shaping a positive, collaborative organisational culture.
-
Develop policies and frameworks that promote wellbeing, safeguarding, equity, and belonging.
-

Support conflict resolution, feedback processes, and healthy communication across the charity.
-
Help embed REMIX’s values — empowerment, compassion, equity, resilience, community, integrity — into everything we do.
-
Champion diversity, inclusion, and representation across all teams and programmes.
This role blends leadership, people development, culture‑building, and organisational design — perfect for someone who loves working with people and shaping environments where everyone can thrive.
What We’re Looking For
We need someone with previous HR management or people‑leadership experience — we welcome people stepping into this kind of role for the first time. What matters most is your passion for people, your emotional intelligence, and your commitment to building a culture that feels safe, inspiring, and inclusive.
We’re looking for someone who is:
-
Passionate about social mobility, youth empowerment, and fairness.
-
Warm, empathetic, and excellent with people.
-
Entrepreneurial, proactive, and excited by building something new.
-
A strong communicator who can support volunteers and leaders alike.
-
Confident working collaboratively, but also able to take initiative independently.
-
Organised, reliable, and committed to our mission.
-
Compassionate, emotionally intelligent, and community‑minded.
Why Join REMIX?
-
Play a central role in shaping the culture and people‑experience of a start‑up charity with huge potential.
