About The Pinnacle Centre
The Pinnacle Centre is a third space in Birmingham helping young adults grow holistically. We work across three domains: personal development, sports and wellbeing, and community and belonging.
Vision 2030 is where that work is heading. We're building a multi-purpose centre in Birmingham — sports facilities, co-working space, an auditorium and a café — designed as a home for young adults to train, work, learn and gather.
Role Summary
You own how people are looked after, how they are welcomed and the small details that decide whether an evening feels generous or thrown together.
Key tasks
1. Catering & refreshments
○ Plan and order catering appropriate to each event, audience and budget.
○ Manage dietary, allergen and halal requirements properly and without fuss.
○ Manage setup, service and clear-down of food and drink.
2. Welcome & front of house
○ Design and run the welcome experience: registration, signage and greeting.
○ Brief front-of-house volunteers on tone and expectations.
○ Look after speakers, sponsors and guests of honour.
3. Suppliers & cost
○ Source and negotiate with caterers and hospitality suppliers.
○ Track hospitality spend against budget and cost per head.
○ Build relationships with reliable local suppliers.
4. Standards
○ Ensure food hygiene and safety requirements are met.
○ Maintain a consistent standard so guests know what to expect from us.
○ Gather feedback on hospitality specifically, and act on it.
What we're looking for
● Hospitality, catering or front-of-house experience.
● Naturally hospitable — you notice when someone has been left waiting.
● Budget-conscious without being cheap.
● Based in Birmingham with regular evening and weekend availability.
● Food hygiene certificate (desirable).
What we have to offer
● Real ownership of a function, not a task list — you will shape how it works, not just execute someone else's plan.
● A seat in a team building towards a 2030 horizon, with a clear line of sight to the leadership team.
● Access to our network of founders, professionals, entrepreneurs and investors through Pinnacle's events programme.
● Training, mentoring and the opportunity to build and lead a team of your own as the organisation grows.
● The reward of building something in your city that will outlast all of us.
Please note: this is currently a volunteer position. Reasonable expenses for travel, equipment and refreshments are reimbursed in line with our Expenses Policy. As Pinnacle grows and funding allows, we expect several senior roles to move to paid positions, and volunteers already in post will be considered first.
As a Visitor Centre Welcome Volunteer, you will help create a positive and memorable experience for visitors coming to WWT Caerlaverock.

This is a great opportunity to meet a wide variety of people, build confidence and customer service skills, and become part of a friendly and supportive team. You'll learn about wildlife and conservation, gain experience using a till system, and help visitors enjoy a fantastic day out in a beautiful wetland environment.
Volunteers are an essential part of the WWT team, and we wouldn’t be able to maintain our internationally important wetland sites without their help. You will receive a very warm welcome, full induction & training, and be provided with the necessary equipment, uniform, and anything else needed to thrive in your role.
We are particularly looking for volunteers who are available to help out one day a week on Thursdays, Fridays, or Saturdays. This role is not suitable for people under 18 years.
