- Helping ensure our team knows what properties are available
- Helping with documentation and property checks such as checking for landlord certificates and the rogue landlord registry

Founded in 1879, Together for Mental Wellbeing is the longest-established mental health charity in England. We work to ensure that everyone who experiences mental distress is valued, can live the life they choose and can determine their own future.
What we do
Together for Mental Wellbeing is a national charity that supports people who experience mental distress to lead fulfilling and independent lives.
We work with approximately 4,500 people every month via 70 projects throughout England, but we aspire to reach many more people through our recently refreshed five-year strategy.
Our services include:
- personalised support in the community
- accommodation based support
- advocacy services, including in secure hospitals
- criminal justice services, including in courts and probation services
What makes us stand out is that we put people at the centre of their own support – they set their own goals and are in control of how we work alongside them to achieve these. We value people as experts in what works best for them, and draw on their skills and strengths to build resilience and support networks so they can eventually manage without us
This means we value people as experts in what works best for them, and each individual we work with influences and shapes the support they and others receive from us. It also means we provide opportunities for people experiencing mental distress to work with Together to draw on their experiences to help us improve the quality and experience of the services that we provide.
We are committed to promoting service user leadership wherever possible; this is why we recently launched our Lived Experience Network, a free, members-based community.
Our values
We work together to facilitate choice through involvement, by doing what we say, never giving up on people, and looking to constantly improve how we work.
Our Board
We have an effective and collaborative Board of enthusiastic, friendly and committed trustees, who lead the development of Together and ensure that the charity exemplifies good practice.
The opportunity
We wish to add new trustees to our Board and have identified some recruitment priorities:
- We are seeking at least one individual with lived experience of mental distress who can draw on their unique knowledge and insights as to how mental distress impacts on people’s lives, and share their passion and enthusiasm to drive the aspirations of the organisation.
Our approach is for the individual to determine whether or not they have lived experience of mental distress. One person’s lived experience is no more or less important than another’s.
- We wish to increase the gender diversity of our leadership at Together; we currently have a high proportion of men.
Having completed a recent Board skills audit we also encourage applicants with experience of the following areas:
- Human resources and workforce planning
- Forensic psychiatry
- Public sector procurement/contracting
- Knowledge of health and wellbeing service providers from the Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise (VCSE) sector
- Digital development and innovation
- Auditing and risk management
- Financial management and accounting
However, all applications are welcomed and will be considered. We also recognise that people are often juggling multiple commitments and can offer flexibility as to when you take up the role.
We offer a full induction, along with ongoing training and development opportunities. Although our trustees are unpaid volunteers all expenses related to the role will be paid in full.
Typically trustees will attend around 10 meetings per year, occasional virtual attendance is possible, and be invited to events and visits. With preparation time for meetings this can equate to a commitment of 1-2 days per month.
As a Trustee you will:
- Join a committed and friendly Board
- Help shape our strategic development as a charity
- Influence our innovative projects and initiatives, especially with service users
- Develop new skills and knowledge
- Be supported to attend relevant conferences and other training events
- Help improve the mental health and wellbeing of people and communities

Reliability and ability to commit to pre-agreed volunteer shifts (ESSENTIAL)

Physical fitness, to take on moving and handling of food orders
-
Ability to follow procedures and instructions
-
Good verbal communication skills
-
Interest in the work of FareShare Greater Manchester and our values

Career and CV advice and support
A reference for future employers
Reimbursement of travel and lunch expenses
The opportunity to give practical help to fight food poverty and reduce food waste (and associated CO2 emissions)
The opportunity to meet like-minded people and make new friends
Our operating hours are Monday - Friday, 8:30am to 4:30pm.

The days and rota hours of volunteering are agreed around your availability.

What if your ability to build partnerships could accelerate the future of women’s health research?
ENDOless is building a privacy-first, AI-powered data infrastructure dedicated to women’s chronic conditions.
We start with endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain.
But our ambition goes far beyond.
We are here to build the data layer that has been missing in women’s health — across chronic pain, hormonal disorders, mental health correlations, autoimmune patterns, cardiovascular signals, and beyond.
Not another period app.
A research-grade, structured, multimodal women’s health data platform.
And to make this real, we need strong research partnerships across Europe.
�� Your Role
You will be the person who opens the institutional doors.
As Business Developer – Research Partnerships, you will:
- Identify and approach university hospitals, clinical networks, public research institutes, and private research organizations across Europe
- Engage principal investigators, research directors, and innovation leads
- Position ENDOless as a strategic research data partner
- Structure and close pilot collaborations
- Navigate conversations around GDPR, ethics committees, data governance, and EU research funding frameworks
- Build a pipeline aligned with our regulatory and fundraising milestones
This is not transactional sales.
This is trust-based, long-cycle partnership building in European healthcare.
You will directly influence:
- Clinical validation
- Paid research pilots
- Institutional credibility
- Strategic revenue streams
You are not supporting sales.
You are building it.
�� Who You Are
- Based in Europe
- Fluent in English (French is a strong plus)
- Experienced in healthcare business development, research partnerships, clinical innovation, or institutional sales
- Comfortable speaking with professors, clinicians, regulatory advisors, and public institutions
- Familiar with:
- GDPR and European health data realities
- Ethics approvals and data governance
- The emerging European Health Data Space (EHDS)
- EU research funding structures (Horizon Europe, national grants, etc.)
- Long procurement and trust-building cycles
You understand that Europe moves slowly — but once credibility is earned, it compounds.
You think structurally, not opportunistically.
Why This Role Matters
Women’s health data is fragmented, biased, and underfunded.
Researchers lack structured, longitudinal, multimodal real-world data focused on women.
We are building that missing infrastructure.
This role is foundational.
Without strong partnerships, there is no validation.
Without validation, there is no systemic change.
�� What You Gain
- Strategic exposure to the European health innovation ecosystem
- Direct collaboration with the founder and CTO
- Influence over commercial and research roadmap
- Equity opportunity aligned with fundraising milestones
- A chance to build something category-defining
You will not just “close deals.”
You will help reshape how women’s health research is conducted.
About ENDOless
ENDOless integrates:
- Structured symptom tracking across 15+ dimensions
- Wearable physiological data (HRV, sleep, stress, activity)
- Environmental and behavioral context
- AI-powered predictive modeling
- Research-ready, compliant datasets
We enable:
- Digital biomarker exploration
- Real-world data access for researchers
- AI model validation studies
- Clinical pilot programs
- Research-as-a-Service infrastructure

Our long-term vision:
To become the reference women’s health real-world data platform in Europe.
