Lead with compassion. Shape the future. Help transform lives.
Women on the Frontline Ministries (WOFM) is a Christian charity supporting women affected by sexual exploitation, trauma, isolation, abuse and vulnerability through outreach, advocacy, practical support and relationship-based care.
For many years, WOFM has built trusted relationships within local communities across East London, working alongside churches, frontline organisations and partner agencies to provide compassionate, non-judgemental support to women facing complex challenges.
We are now seeking a values-driven and collaborative Volunteer Charity Manager to help lead the organisation into its next season of growth, sustainability and impact.
About the Role
The Volunteer Charity Manager will provide overall leadership, coordination and operational oversight for the charity, working closely with the Board of Trustees, staff team and volunteers to strengthen the delivery of WOFM’s mission and future development.
This is a varied leadership role combining strategic coordination, relationship management, community engagement and operational oversight within a grassroots charity environment.
The successful candidate will not be working alone. The organisation currently includes:
• a part-time Women’s Support Worker
• a part-time Social Media Lead
• a dedicated team of volunteer Outreach Assistants
• an active and supportive Board of Trustees committed to working closely alongside the Manager
The Board is seeking a self-starting individual who works well independently and is committed to supporting the successful candidate with a sustainable organisational structure as the charity continues to grow and develop.
Key Responsibilities
Leadership & Operational Coordination
• Provide overall coordination and day-to-day leadership across the charity’s outreach programmes and activities
• Oversee the effective delivery of operational priorities, outreach services and community engagement initiatives
• Maintain and strengthen effective systems, administration and organisational processes
• Work collaboratively with staff, volunteers and trustees to ensure services are delivered safely, compassionately and effectively
Team Leadership & Volunteer Coordination
• Encourage, coordinate and develop staff and volunteers across the organisation
• Oversee volunteer communication, engagement and rota coordination
• Contribute to recruitment, onboarding and ongoing team development
• Foster a collaborative, values-led and supportive organisational culture
Safeguarding & Community Engagement
• Promote good safeguarding practice and help ensure safeguarding responsibilities are managed appropriately
• Build strong working relationships with local organisations, churches and support agencies
• Contribute to advocacy, signposting and practical support activities where appropriate
Partnerships & Representation
• Build and maintain positive relationships with community partners, churches, local organisations and stakeholders
• Represent WOFM at meetings, networking opportunities and community events
• Champion awareness of the charity’s mission, impact and future vision
Governance, Sustainability & Development
• Work closely with the Chair and Board of Trustees to support the strategic direction of the organisation
• Prepare updates and reports for trustee meetings where required
• Contribute to fundraising activities, funding applications and sustainability planning
• Help strengthen the long-term development and operational capacity of the charity
About You
We are looking for someone who is compassionate, organised and able to lead with empathy, wisdom and good judgement.
You may have experience within:
• charity leadership or voluntary sector management
• community outreach or social impact work
• ministry or faith-based leadership
• safeguarding or support services
• operations, programme or project coordination
• volunteer management or partnership working
We also welcome applications from individuals with transferable leadership experience and a genuine passion for supporting vulnerable women and strengthening communities.
Note: This role is open to female applicants only, as being female is deemed to be a genuine occupational requirement under Schedule 9, Paragraph 1 of the Equality Act 2010. The successful candidate is required to complete an enhanced DBS check.
Skills & Qualities
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills
• Ability to lead, coordinate and motivate others
• Organised with strong administrative and leadership abilities
• Emotionally resilient with sound judgement and professional boundaries
• Collaborative and able to work independently when required
• Comfortable using email, spreadsheets and online communication platforms
• Understanding of confidentiality and safeguarding principles
• Alignment with the values and compassionate ethos of the organisation
Time Commitment & Availability
This is a flexible volunteer leadership role of approximately 20 hours per week, which we are happy to shape around the right person’s other commitments. We would suggest thinking of it as roughly 4 hours a day across a typical working week but how those hours are arranged is genuinely negotiable, and we are open to discussing an arrangement that works for you.
The role is hybrid, combining:
• remote and flexible working from home
• attendance at outreach activities, particularly on Wednesday afternoons for daytime drop-in sessions and Friday evenings for evening outreach
• meetings and occasional events in East London (typically evenings and occasional weekends)
• trustee and board meetings on a regular scheduled cycle
Reasonable, pre-agreed out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred in carrying out the role (for example, travel) will be reimbursed. Ideally, we are seeking someone able to commit to the role for a minimum of 6 months to support continuity and sustainable growth.
Support & Future Development
The successful candidate will work alongside a committed Board of Trustees, staff team and volunteers who are passionate about the mission of the charity.
While this is currently a voluntary role, the Board is actively working to secure funding with the aim of creating paid leadership and operational roles in the future. We cannot guarantee if or when such funding will be confirmed, and any future paid appointment would be made through a fair and open recruitment process. That said, someone who grows with WOFM and comes to know the organisation well would be well placed to be considered as those opportunities arise.
The organisation is continuing to strengthen its operational foundations and develop sustainable structures to support long-term impact within the community.
Why Join WOFM?
This is an opportunity to:
• make a direct and meaningful difference in the lives of vulnerable women
• help shape the future direction of a growing grassroots charity
• work alongside a passionate and committed team
• contribute to a mission rooted in compassion, dignity, faith and hope
• build sustainable impact within local communities
• grow with an organisation that is actively working towards funded leadership roles
How to Apply
Please send the following
• your CV or a short summary of relevant experience
• a covering letter outlining your interest in the role and what you feel you could bring to the organisation
Informal conversations and expressions of interest are warmly welcomed before you apply. Please feel free to reach out by email to arrange a call. We are reviewing applications on a rolling basis. Early applications are encouraged.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

Our trustees and non-executive directors play a vital role in making sure that the group achieves its core purpose. They oversee the overall management and administration of the charity. They also ensure that there is a clear strategy and that our work and goals are in line with our vision.
Just as importantly, they support and challenge the CEO and executive team in the exercise of their delegated authority and affairs, to enable Thrive Social Housing and Emerging Futures CIC to grow and thrive, and through this, achieve our mission.
The Board operates under the leadership and guidance of the chair and works in partnership with the chief executive officer and the executive team.
Board members are expected to always act in the best interests of the organisation and its stakeholders, and to use their background knowledge and skills to work with the chair and other board members to ensure that the Board, supported by its committees, carries out its responsibilities effectively and lead from the top in demonstrating our culture, values and behaviours.
Board members have a collective responsibility. This means that trustees always act as a group and not as individuals.
