Lead volunteer roles in Wakefield, west yorkshire

JOIN TEAM MINDSET

WE’RE BUILDING SOMETHING BIG.

And we want you right at the centre of it.

MINDSET Charity is a brand‑new London charity with a simple ambition:

HELPING MEN AND BOYS BUILD BETTER LIVES.

We’re creating something different.

A place where men and boys can build confidence, skills, resilience, connection, purpose and a positive mindset — through practical support, mentoring, buddying, positive role models and simply having people in their corner. Helping them through mental health and wellbeing.

But here’s the thing…

We can’t build it alone.

And that’s where you come in.

WE’RE LOOKING FOR OUR OPERATIONS LEAD

Someone who loves making things work. Someone who gets a buzz from organising, coordinating, improving and keeping everything running smoothly. Someone who wants to help build a charity from the ground up — not just watch from the sidelines.

As our Operations Lead, you’ll be the person who helps turn ideas into action. You’ll help shape how MINDSET works behind the scenes. You’ll help us build systems, processes, structure and organisation that allow us to support more men and boys across London.

You’ll be part of the engine room of MINDSET.

WHAT YOU MIGHT GET INVOLVED IN

• Helping us set up simple, effective systems that keep everything moving.

• Coordinating volunteers, activities and day‑to‑day operations.

• Making sure our programmes run smoothly and people feel supported.

• Helping us stay organised, efficient and ready for growth.

• Spotting problems before they happen — and helping us fix them.

• Bringing your ideas, experience and energy to help shape how MINDSET works.

And if you’ve never done this before?

That’s absolutely fine.

THIS ISN’T ABOUT HAVING THE PERFECT CV

You don’t need to have worked for a charity before. You don’t need to know everything. You don’t need to be an expert.

You just need to bring something you’re good at — organising, planning, coordinating, problem‑solving, or simply a willingness to get stuck in and help us build something meaningful.

We’ll support you, help you develop and give you the opportunity to be part of something from the very beginning.

YOUR TIME MATTERS. YOUR EXPERIENCE MATTERS. YOUR IDEAS MATTER. YOU MATTER.

BECOME A FOUNDING VOLUNTEER

Come and help us build MINDSET from the ground up.

• Meet great people.
• Learn new things.
• Build your experience.
• Have some fun.
• Make a difference.

And one day you’ll be able to say:

“I was there at the beginning.”

We are a UK-based charity that uses sport to help young people develop life skills such as teamwork, communication and leadership. We have delivered a growing number of programmes and events, but our marketing and social media have not developed at the same pace as our delivery.

The volunteer will take leadership of our overall marketing direction, with support from trustees and less experienced volunteers who can help with content creation and delivery.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Creating a practical marketing and social media strategy
• Improving how we communicate our impact through stories, case studies, photos, video and programme results
• Advising on the best platforms, audiences and types of content for the charity
• Creating or directing the creation of social media content
• Helping establish templates, processes and brand guidance
• Reviewing performance data and adjusting the approach where needed
• Providing guidance and creative direction to other volunteers supporting marketing activity

This is a strategic and hands-on role. The volunteer will have freedom to shape our approach and test new ideas, while working closely with the charity’s trustees and wider team.

We are looking for someone with at least three years of professional experience in marketing, social media, communications, branding, content strategy or a related area.

The role is unpaid, UK-based and expected to require around two hours per week, with flexibility around when the work is completed.

• Strong written communication and storytelling skills
• The confidence to introduce new ideas and advise a small charity on its marketing priorities

Experience in the charity, education, youth or sports sectors would be useful, but it is not required. Experience supporting a growing organisation, working with volunteers or developing a brand would also be valuable.

You should be creative, reliable and comfortable working within a small team. We are looking for someone who will listen to different perspectives but can also make clear recommendations and lead the marketing approach.

You do not need to produce every piece of content yourself. Other volunteers and team members can support delivery. However, you should be able to set the direction, establish suitable processes and provide constructive guidance.

An interest in helping young people develop their skills and future opportunities through sport and education would be a strong fit with our work.

What difference will you make?

Strong marketing will help SPORT 4 SUCCESS reach more young people, schools, delivery partners, funders and volunteers.

At present, much of our impact happens through our programmes, events and direct relationships, but we do not communicate that impact consistently. This limits our ability to build awareness, attract support and show the value of our work.

Your work would help us create a clearer identity, communicate our purpose more effectively and build a consistent presence across our social media and wider marketing channels.

A stronger strategy would help us:

• Reach more schools and youth organisations
• Attract volunteers with the skills needed to grow the charity
• Build relationships with sports organisations and corporate partners
• Support fundraising and sponsorship activity
• Promote programmes and events
• Share evidence of our impact
• Give young people and schools a stronger voice in our communications

The role will also help us move away from ad hoc marketing and towards a structured approach that the wider team can follow.

As a small charity, this role would have direct influence. The volunteer’s ideas and recommendations would shape how SPORT 4 SUCCESS presents itself, communicates its work and grows over the next stage of its development.

The result will be a stronger platform for helping more young people build skills, confidence and future opportunities through sport and education.

Before you apply

Shortlisted applicants will be invited to an informal online conversation with members of our trustee team. This will be an opportunity to discuss your experience, learn more about the charity and explore how you would approach the role.

Applications will be reviewed as they are received, and we may arrange conversations before the closing date. We aim to respond to shortlisted applicants within two weeks of receiving their application.

Our Chair plays a vital role in making sure that Possible achieves its core purpose. They provide leadership and direction to the board of trustees, enabling effective governance of the charity, and they closely manage the Director team to support—and challenge—them to achieve their vision for the organisation.

Possible is about to embark on its next phase as an organisation with the implementation of its new four year organisational strategy. This is a really exciting, important time to join the team in such a pivotal role, and have a real impact on the successful delivery of this work.

As our new Chair, you’ll lead the team of trustees, ensuring they provide on-going strategic direction, critical challenge and helping hands to ensure we continue to land our work with the size of impact the climate crisis demands. You’ll also work closely with Possible’s Co-Directors, offering more detailed support and oversight. We currently have a team of two Co-Directors, rather than one ED, but appoint one as a Lead Director on a rotating basis to lead liaison with the board.

We are looking for someone with prior experience of serving on a charity board and demonstrable leadership experience. However, you do not need experience of being a Chair if it is clear that you are ready to step up, and you do not need experience working in the climate sector, either, although we are looking for someone with knowledge of it.
