Our Volunteer Opportunity
This role is about much more than volunteer coordination. It is about creating a strong culture of belonging, team spirit and shared purpose. You will help us recruit, onboard, support and retain volunteers, while ensuring they feel appreciated, confident and empowered to contribute meaningfully to our work.
You will play a central role in developing a volunteering programme that goes above and beyond good practice — one that feels positive, uplifting and genuinely rewarding for everyone involved. From first welcome to ongoing support, you will help create a volunteer experience that feels like joining a caring, motivated family with a shared mission to change lives.

Working closely with the Founder and wider team to strengthen volunteer involvement across the charity.
What we’re looking for
We would love to hear from you if you are:
Passionate about volunteering, community building and helping others thrive.
Organised, approachable and able to create structure while keeping things human and uplifting.
Confident in recruiting, supporting or managing volunteers.
A strong communicator who can inspire others and build positive relationships.
Someone who values recognition, belonging and team culture.
Able to take initiative and help shape a programme from the very beginning.
Committed to creating a volunteering experience that is supportive, rewarding and meaningful.
Why this role matters
Volunteers will be at the heart of SUNSHINE’s work, helping us reach more people, create more connection and build a stronger sense of community. A well-designed volunteering programme will not only help the charity grow — it will help volunteers feel proud to be part of something purposeful, inspiring and life-changing.
By leading our volunteering strategy, you will help create a community where people are valued, supported and encouraged to do their best work in service of a cause that truly matters.
When applying, please tell us:
What your approach to volunteer leadership and management is.
How you would go about building a volunteering programme from scratch.
How you would help create a positive, supportive and motivated volunteer community.
What experience, strengths or ideas you would bring to SUNSHINE.
What you’ll gain
The opportunity to design and lead a volunteering programme from the beginning.
