Learning engagement manager volunteer roles

Cats Protection is the UK’s leading feline welfare charity, and our vision is a world where every cat is treated with kindness and an understanding of its needs.

Cats are at the centre of everything we do, and our objectives are homing, neutering and educating people about cats and their care.

We help thousands of cats across the UK each year thanks to our network of dedicated volunteers, employees and supporters.

A bit about this role...

Every penny counts when it comes to improving the lives of the thousands of cats and kittens across the UK that need our help each year. Our Collection Box Volunteers help us raise vital funds by collecting and distributing collection boxes in their local area. Making a difference can mean as little as raising 20p, which is enough to feed one cat in our care for a day, to £150 which is the average cost of a cat in our care.

What can I expect to be doing?

As a flexible role, you have the choice to be involved in the following:

• Researching local shops, pubs and businesses to place Collection Boxes
• Delivering Collection Boxes to locations
• Recording donations and thanking local businesses and supporters
• Collecting and replacing Collection boxes when they're full
• Sharing your passion for cat welfare and promoting the work of Cats Protection

What are the benefits to you and the cats?

You will have the opportunity to develop your knowledge though Cats Protection’s learn online system, providing you with the skills to thrive as a fundraiser. You’ll also have the chance to meet new people and be part of a dedicated team of Volunteers.
Money raised by our volunteers enables us to put cats first. Cats are at the centre of all we do. We care for them, ensure their welfare, and help others to understand and better support them.

We're looking for someone with:

• Sympathy to cats and our values
• Good communication skills
• Confidence in speaking to members of the public
• Confidence in handling money

How much time is expected of me?

Our Collection Tin Volunteer role is very flexible and can be completed at your own pace, independently with our dedicated support.

Support, guidance and keeping you safe

At Cats Protection we believe our volunteers should be happy and confident in their roles. We provide support and guidance from our National Cat Centre and through our regional and local volunteer groups and teams. We offer engaging online and face-to-face training, expenses and have policies and processes to help volunteers get the most out of their time with us.

The wellbeing of our people is important and at Cats Protection we are committed to safeguarding children, adults at risk and all those that we encounter as part of our activities.

Thank you for your support and sharing in this commitment and for everything you will do during your time with Cats Protection!

• Passionate about people and community

• Experienced or confident in HR, recruitment, or volunteer management

• Organised, proactive, and excited by building things from scratch

• A natural communicator who loves supporting others

If you’ve ever wanted to shape a charity’s culture from day one — this is your moment.

What You’ll Gain

Volunteering with us means you’ll:

• Play a foundational role in a brand‑new charity.
• Build leadership and strategic HR / volunteering management experience.
• Shape a volunteer programme that reflects your values.
• Work with a passionate, uplifting, purpose‑driven team.
• See the direct impact of your work on people’s lives.
• Grow personally and professionally while helping others do the same.

This is meaningful work. This is legacy‑building work.

A Quick Self‑Check

Before you scroll on, ask yourself:

• Do I want to use my HR/Volunteering Management skills to create real social impact?

• Do I want to build something powerful from the ground up?

• Do I want to help volunteers feel valued, supported, and inspired?

Organisation: The Lysene Cultural Foundation

Location: Remote (global)

About the Lysene Foundation

The Lysene Cultural Foundation is a start‑up charitable organisation inspired by the micronation known as the Principality of Lys — a creative community rooted in the classical arts, architecture, and beauty of the French Renaissance, Baroque, Beaux‑Arts, and the age of Humanism and Enlightenment.

We believe in a new Renaissance for Europe and the wider world. Our mission is to bring the cultural and community spirit of Lys to life through accessible public programmes, including community events, educational initiatives, exhibitions, publications, artistic opportunities, and more.

All activities and resources are open to the public without restriction.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a visionary and highly organised Head of Volunteering to establish and lead our global volunteering function. This is a senior volunteer role ideal for someone who enjoys building systems from scratch, shaping culture, and empowering people.

You will design and launch our volunteering programme, create the systems and processes that underpin it, and lead the recruitment, onboarding and retention of volunteers across the foundation. As we grow, you will build and oversee a dedicated volunteer department.

This is a rare opportunity to shape the future of a cultural charity at an early stage.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and implement the foundation’s global volunteering strategy.

• Create volunteer systems, processes, policies, and best‑practice frameworks.

• Design volunteer role descriptions, onboarding pathways, training materials, and engagement methods.

• Lead the recruitment, selection, onboarding, and retention of volunteers across all teams.

• Establish a positive, inclusive, and inspiring volunteer culture aligned with our mission and values.

• Set up and manage a volunteer management system (VMS) and reporting processes.

• Build and lead a volunteer department, including future volunteer team leads.

• Work closely with senior leadership to ensure volunteering supports organisational goals.

• Monitor, evaluate, and continuously improve the volunteering programme.

What We’re Looking For

• Experience in volunteer management, HR, people operations, or organisational development.

• Strong understanding of volunteer recruitment, engagement, and retention.

• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.

• Ability to create structure, processes, and systems in a start‑up environment.

• Strategic thinker with a hands‑on, proactive approach.

• Passion for arts, culture, education, or heritage is a bonus.

• A collaborative, supportive leadership style.

What You’ll Gain

• The chance to build a global volunteering programme from the ground up.

• Senior‑level leadership experience within a growing cultural foundation.

• The opportunity to shape culture, strategy, and long‑term impact.

• A creative, mission‑driven environment where your ideas genuinely matter.

• A meaningful role that strengthens your CV and professional profile, with a reference after a minimum of 6 months committment to our Foundation.

Time Commitment

Approx. 8 hours per month, fully remote, with flexibility around your schedule.

How to Apply

Please submit your CV and a short statement explaining why you’re interested in this role and what you would bring to the foundation.

We Are The Lysene Foundation

Our vision for volunteering

Volunteering is and always will be at the heart of Cats Protection. It is joyful and inclusive. As a charity, working in partnership, together we transform the lives of cats, people and communities.

The difference you will make to cats and people

Without the passionate and committed teams of volunteers across Cats Protection we wouldn’t be able to help the thousands of cats and kittens each year that rely on us for help. Life in a rescue environment is never ideal for any cat compared to a loving home. Our cat adoption team leaders support cat homing and as part of this they may lead a team of volunteer home visitors who collectively play an important part in matching our feline friends with their new families. Our cat adoption team leaders support their team of volunteers in all aspects of their roles, making sure our volunteers are happy, confident and supported.

You can expect us to

• Make you feel welcome, included and respected in line with our values and behaviours
• Support you in having a positive and impactful experience at Cats Protection
• Cover agreed out-of-pocket expenses in line with our Expenses Policy
• Provide you with access to learning, development and engagement opportunities

What we need from you

You’ll be:

• Acting as the main point of contact within the team for cat adoption enquiries via email/telephone and social media
• Supporting the adoption process through either homefinder questionnaires or a small team of home visitors
• Liaising closely with other volunteers to ensure information on cats being helped is correct and up to date
• Following up on any post-adoption queries
• Play an active part in the volunteer committee, being part of the team leading on cat adoption information and updates
• Collaborating with the cat welfare team leader to ensure the highest standards of cat care are applied in line with Cats Protection policy and procedures

Time expectation

The cat adoption team leader role is vital within our busy volunteer teams. Our current volunteers spend around 10 to 12 hours per week in this flexible role, which can be shared by more than one volunteer if required.

You may be just the volunteer we’ve been looking for!

We are committed to building a diverse, compassionate and inclusive organisation where everyone can be themselves and do their best. We are courageous and compassionate in our purpose of helping people see the world through cats’ eyes. Together, we can make a difference. Together, we are all for cats. Join the UK’s leading cat welfare charity and help make a better life for cats, because life is better with cats.

Howami Ltd

We help young menstruators improve mental health and menstrual literacy through embodied game-based app experiences.​

We’re Howami, a bold, empathetic UK-based startup on a mission to transform how young people and their carers navigate menstrual and emotional health. We are soon to launch Million Moons, a global storytelling and fundraising initiative that will shift how the world talks about and understands menstrual health and youth emotional and mental wellbeing.
 
If you are someone who: 
Believes young people deserve better?
Feels called to build something bold, compassionate, and culturally transformative?
Cares deeply about young people, emotions, cycles, and the hidden work of growing up?
Thrives at the intersection of creativity, activism, and social impact?
If yes, you might be the teammate we’re looking for!

The role

We are looking for an in-house data-driven yet deeply creative Digital Marketing Specialist to collaborate with our PR and Marketing Partners and drive our paid social strategy and content ecosystem. You will build the tracking that tells us what’s working, produce authentic user-generated content that earns attention honestly, and make sure every message, from a three-second hook to a landing-page headline, carries the Million Moons voice with care. You will be the bridge between the numbers and the narrative.

What you’ll do in collaboration with our PR and Marketing Partners:

Technical tracking & analytics

1. Implement and configure the Meta Pixel and Conversions API via Google Tag Manager for clean, reliable tracking and attribution.
2. Set up, test, and troubleshoot custom conversion events.
3. Audit tracking health regularly, resolve data discrepancies, and sharpen ad targeting.

UGC content creation & creative direction

1. Ideate, script, and produce compelling user-generated content (UGC) for Meta (Facebook, Instagram and Tiktok) campaigns and organic social.
2. Manage the content process end to end: casting creators and storytellers, directing shoots, and editing final assets.
3. Watch for creative fatigue and iterate on top-performing UGC formats (testimonials, behind-the-scenes, explainers) to grow reach and engagement, always keeping dignity and consent at the centre.

Key messaging & strategy

1. Lead the development of localized, high-performing messaging frameworks for the European and, eventually, the Global market.
2. Hold the line on brand voice and tone across every touchpoint, from ad copy to landing pages.
3. Translate broad goals into clear, persuasive copy tailored to different audience personas — without ever losing the warmth that makes people stay.

What you’ll bring

This list describes the shape of the role, not a checklist you must tick perfectly. If you’re early in your career but learn fast and care deeply, we want to hear from you.

1. Hands-on curiosity with the tools. Around 1–2 years of experience or equivalent practice through internships, freelance work, personal projects, or study with Google Tag Manager, Meta Ads Manager, and TikTok. If you’ve been teaching yourself, that counts.
2. A creative eye. Some examples of UGC or content you’ve created or directed. A polished agency portfolio is welcome, but so is a TikTok you grew from scratch or a campaign you ran for a cause or side project. We care about the thinking behind it.
3. A way with words. A feel for copywriting and an instinct for what an audience actually needs to hear. You need a good ear and the willingness to revise.
4. An analytical mindset. Comfort with (or genuine eagerness to learn) Google Analytics, and a habit of letting data guide the next decision.
5. Heart. A genuine connection to our mission. You don’t have to share every story, but you do have to care about the people telling them. This matters to us as much as any technical skill.
