Admin Manager/Lead – VOLUNTEER ROLE
Remote | Approx. 4 hours per week | MINDSET Charity (UK)
Transforming men’s mental wellbeing through action, challenge, and real‑world connection
MINDSET is building a new kind of men’s mental wellbeing and personal growth movement in the UK — one that speaks the language men actually respond to: doing, belonging, challenge, and shared purpose. We’re not clinical. We’re not corporate. We’re not another “sit in a circle and talk about your feelings” model. We create experiences that help men grow, connect, and rebuild confidence from the inside out.
And now, we’re looking for an Admin Manager/Lead to build the operational backbone that keeps this national movement running smoothly.
Why This Role Matters
Behind every programme, every challenge, and every breakthrough moment for a man in our community, there’s a huge amount of organisation happening quietly in the background.
Your work will ensure that the charity runs efficiently, that volunteers and programme leads have what they need, and that our systems support — rather than slow down — the mission. You’ll be the person who brings clarity, structure, and calm to a fast‑growing movement.
This is a founding role. You will help build the administrative systems and processes that will support men across the UK for years to come.
What You’ll Lead
As our Admin Manager/Lead, you will:
Build simple, effective administrative systems that keep the charity running smoothly
Manage inboxes, documents, schedules, and internal communications
Create and maintain clear processes that support volunteers and programme leads
Keep information organised, accessible, and up to date
Support onboarding processes and ensure volunteers have what they need
Work closely with leadership to streamline operations as we grow
Help build a movement that changes the way men experience wellbeing in this country
This role is remote, flexible, and designed for someone who wants to make a real impact in just a few hours each week.
Who This Role Is Perfect For
You’ll thrive in this role if you are:
Naturally organised and enjoy bringing order to busy environments
Someone who loves creating simple systems that make life easier for everyone
Reliable, detail‑focused, and comfortable managing multiple tasks
Passionate about men’s wellbeing, personal growth, and community
Excited by the idea of shaping a national movement from its earliest days
You do not need charity experience. You do not need formal admin qualifications. You just need heart, initiative, and a desire to help men live fuller, healthier lives.
What You’ll Be Part Of
MINDSET is creating a new narrative for men in the UK — one built on strength, connection, and growth. Your work will directly support the delivery of programmes such as:
Our 12‑week Self‑Improvement Programme
Our Life Coaching Programme
Future activity‑based wellbeing programmes and challenges
You’ll be helping to build a movement that gives men the tools, confidence, and community they’ve been missing.
If you want to help build something bold, needed, and genuinely life‑changing…
We’d love to hear from you. Join us and help build the administrative foundation at the heart of MINDSET.

STAMMA is the leading charity for people who stammer in the UK. We’re a small, award-winning organisation with big ambitions and a brilliant community, keen to create space and respect for people who stammer.
Stammering has historically been the target for humour and used to suggest inadequacy, leaving many who stammer facing daily ignorance, discrimination and disrespect. This can affect job prospects and mental health, and cause depression and social isolation. It can make booking a GP appointment a nightmare, and prevent people from accessing a service altogether, leaving them feeling humiliated, degraded or disbelieved. We’re here to change that.
We’ve a clear strategy for the next five years to achieve real and practical change for people who stammer by highlighting the inadvertent barriers they face within the workplace and as service users. We want to reach more people who stammer and grow our supporter base, but to do that we need to expand our training and advocacy services, whilst underpinning our helpline and family support.
We want to appoint a new Trustee with significant skills and experience within the charity sector to the Board. You’ll need to share our excitement and ambition for change. It isn’t essential that you stammer. This is an unpaid position, but travel expenses can be covered. Trustee terms are for four years, and you will be expected to attend all Board meetings, up to five times a year, usually on a Saturday, either in-person at different locations across England, or online. There are also sub-committees and informal planning and preparatory discussions, usually held online.
We are looking for someone with experience of one or more of the following:
Person Specification
As a Trustee at STAMMA you would be expected to:
In your cover letter please set out how your experience fits the post described.
We exist to create a world that makes space for stammering. Where a stammer is embraced as just a difference.

About Refugee Biryani & Bananas
Refugee Biriyani & Bananas (RBB) began as a grassroots movement in 2015, in response to the Syrian refugee crisis. What started as a group of friends distributing 2,500 portions of biriyani and bananas in the unofficial camp for displaced people in Dunkirk, Northern France, has grown into a community-driven humanitarian organisation. Initially working under the umbrella of another organisation, RBB became independent to better address gaps in aid and advocacy for displaced people worldwide.
What We Do
RBB supports people facing displacement, war, and inequality, tailoring actions to the needs of each situation. From food distributions to medical support and human rights advocacy, our work is versatile and responsive. We have provided aid in refugee and internally displaced persons (IDP) camps, squats, and other unstable settlements along migratory pathways, including:
France: Calais, Dunkirk & Paris
Greece: Idomeni, Thessaloniki, Athens, Lavrio, Samos & Chios (our main base)
Northern Iraq: Duhok
Serbia: Belgrade Barracks
Bosnia & Herzegovina - Croatia Border: Vucjak Camp
Turkey: Istanbul
Poland, Belarus & Lithuania Border
Ukraine Border (Poland and Ukraine sides)
Palestine: Gaza
Egypt: Cairo
Our Approach
RBB is a mobile grassroots organisation, designed to respond rapidly and flexibly to emerging crises. Our main base of operations is on Chios Island, Greece, where we provide ongoing support to people who are displaced.
Since October 2023, we have also established community-led initiatives to support people affected by the war in Gaza, Palestine, as well as Sudanese and other displaced communities in Cairo, Egypt.
Beyond emergency relief, we remain committed to ongoing support through volunteers, translation services, medical care, aid, and advocacy until either local capacity builds or the situation changes. In addition, our Community Humanitarian Leaders Programme (CHLP) plays a vital role in this approach by strengthening the leadership of people who are displaced by building on their existing skills, networks and lived experience in humanitarian efforts.
Our field team comprises 90% individuals from refugee and asylum-seeking communities, representing Sudan, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Gambia, Ethiopia, Palestine, and Yemen. This diverse team is led by our founder and CEO, Ruhi Akhtar, alongside field coordinators / project managers.
We prioritise dignity and equity, involving displaced individuals in decision-making and collaboration. RBB's direct aid includes food, water, shelter, medical supplies, clothing, hygiene packs, and season-specific items like sunscreen or firewood. Needs assessments and communication with affected communities guide our actions, ensuring targeted, person-centered care.
Advocacy & Awareness
RBB amplifies the voices of displaced people by sharing their stories and raising awareness about often-overlooked realities. Through storytelling and advocacy, we aim to challenge injustice and inspire action.
We are a safe space for all people and welcome those who are new to and currently underrepresented on Charity Boards, in particular members who consider themselves to have a disability and those in the global majority. Lived experience of migration or asylum or a commitment to this work is welcomed.
