System project manager volunteer roles
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

We are seeking to appoint a voluntary Trustee for our charity who will also take up the role as our secretary.
We are looking for someone who wants to make a difference; helping build & grow the charity with the benefit of good governance.
Is this role for me?
As you would expect the secretary role will be responsible for supporting the Chair by making sure meetings are communicated, agendas are developed, & that minutes are produced with actions followed up. It would also involve maintaining a well-organised filing system of critical documents, policies & governance records, as well as ensuring compliance with reporting requirements such as Charity Commission filings. But this will not be a case of walking in & taking over the reins; we are going through a period of change & are looking for someone who will help us put in place the processes & controls needed for a well-run charity.
We are looking for a secretary who will push us & keep us on track. Make no mistake, it will certainly be hard work initially as it will take some time as we work to get everything in place, so you would need to be ready to commit to this. Once things become established then it would be up to you just how much time you want to dedicate beyond keeping everything on track.
Who is The League of Friends of St Mark’s Hospital Maidenhead?
The League of Friends have been supporting patients in St Mark’s Hospital for over 50 years, helping to provide equipment & an environment that enhances their comfort & care.
We maintain the gardens in the Henry Tudor ward & in Out-Patients, including providing outdoor furniture & planting, as well as providing a range of daily newspapers & making sure a nice cup of Nespresso coffee is available too. We have also helped the hospital over recent years by providing; a cardiac resuscitator, an ECG module, hydraulic treatment couches, specialised podiatry & audiology equipment, and software for a Dexta bone density scanner.
Why are you recruiting now?
While we are proud that we have been supporting St Mark’s for over 50 years, including during the COVID19 pandemic, we have recognised that we now need to need to “regroup”.
The charity has identified 2 immediate objectives; firstly, to develop our fundraising efforts as these have slipped since the pandemic, & secondly, to introduce standards of governance which ensure we fulfil statutory obligations & achieve best practice within a small charity environment.
We have recently appointed a new Treasurer to strengthen financial controls, & a further trustee with responsibility for developing our marketing effort which will provide a firm footing for fund raising. Further trustees have recently been appointed which support our charitable giving within the hospital. But we recognise that we are lacking the skills, knowledge & disciplines that a good secretary can provide.
What sort of person do I need to be?
- Hungry for change
- Tenacious
- Pragmatic
- Detailed & meticulous
- Knowledgeable of charity regulations & best practice - or not frightened to find them out & go on to implement them
- A self-starter who is able to drive us towards the changes needed
- A strong communicator
- Tech savvy – able to use MS office & have the ability to work online as needed
How much time would I need to dedicate?
You would need to have enough time to arrange, plan & follow up on Trustee meetings. At present these typically take place in alternate months but there may be a need to move these to monthly as the charity grows. One of these meetings will also include the AGM. Meetings are held in Maidenhead.
As secretary there will be other activities which will require action between meetings, for example, keeping the Charity Commission updated, maintaining policies & renewing insurance. While these activities are not onerous their timely upkeep is obviously important.
One of the key features of this appointment will be the need to drive change & establish good governance within the charity. Although we are looking for someone who can help move this forward at speed, we also recognise that “Rome wasn’t built in a day”!
What will I get out of it?
- Helping to make the lives of patients in hospital more bearable is hugely rewarding.
- The role will be CV enhancing, demonstrating valuable skills & qualities to potential employers; particularly being able to illustrate your ability to influence & to drive change
Is there anything else you think I should know?
Apart from attending our meetings in Maidenhead all other work should be able to be done from home.
This is a volunteer role & necessary expenses incurred will be reimbursed.
We support patients in St Mark's hospital to enhance their comfort and care

4–8 hours per month | Shoreditch, London | Start‑Up Youth Social Mobility Charity
About REMIX
REMIX is a start‑up, youth‑led social mobility charity transforming young lives across London. Based in Shoreditch, we empower young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to unlock their potential, build confidence, and develop essential life skills through nurturing mentorship, inspiring role models, and transformative opportunities.
We’re in the exciting early stages of building something bold, vibrant, and community‑powered — and we’re looking for a Company Secretary who wants to help shape a movement from the ground up.
The Role
We are seeking an organised, detail‑driven, and values‑led Company Secretary to join our Board of Trustees and support REMIX’s governance during this crucial start‑up phase. As a young charity, we are building our systems, policies, compliance processes, and long‑term governance structures — and your role will be central to ensuring we grow with clarity, accountability, and confidence.
Time commitment: 4–8 hours per month, including:
-
Bi‑monthly Board meetings
-
Working groups and sub‑committees
-
Company Secretary duties, preparation, and governance responsibilities
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys structure, clarity, and good governance — and who believes deeply in youth empowerment and social mobility.
Key Responsibilities
As Company Secretary, you will:
-
Ensure REMIX meets its legal, regulatory, and constitutional obligations as a start‑up charity.
-
Maintain accurate records, including minutes, registers, filings, and governance documents.
-
Support the Chair and Board in preparing agendas, papers, and meeting schedules.
-
Oversee timely submissions to the Charity Commission and Companies House.
-
Help develop and maintain governance policies, procedures, and frameworks.
-
Ensure Trustees understand their duties and receive the information they need to make informed decisions.
-
Support the smooth running of Board meetings and ensure actions are tracked and completed.
-
Uphold the highest standards of integrity, transparency, and accountability.
What We’re Looking For
You don’t need previous Company Secretary experience — we welcome people stepping into governance roles for the first time. What matters most is your organisational strength, your commitment to young people, and your ability to support a start‑up charity with clarity and care.
We’re looking for someone who is:
-
Passionate about social mobility, youth empowerment, and fairness.
-
Organised, detail‑focused, and reliable.
-
Confident with documentation, record‑keeping, and compliance.
-
Comfortable in start‑up environments where systems are still being built.
-
A clear communicator who can support Trustees and ensure smooth governance.
-
Compassionate, emotionally intelligent, and community‑minded.
Experience in charity governance, administration, legal compliance, or organisational development is beneficial — but not essential if you bring strong organisational skills and a willingness to learn.
Why Join REMIX?
-
Play a central role in shaping the governance foundations of a start‑up charity with huge potential.
-
Help build a movement that champions equity, compassion, and opportunity.
-
Influence governance, culture, and long‑term sustainability from day one.

Work with passionate Trustees and volunteers who care deeply about young people.
-
Gain experience in charity governance, compliance, and organisational leadership.

A programme‑focused leader who can design, deliver, and refine our employability, wellbeing, and mentoring services to ensure they are impactful, accessible, and life‑changing.
