Volunteer communications volunteer roles
The Head of Events is a crucial element of delivering our flagship event. This is an exciting opportunity to take on a new challenge, build and support a team which delivers a vital part of our charity’s strategic work and explore new ways to expand and improve Bi Pride UK's events.
--------------------
Ideal time commitment: approx. 10-15 hours per month; flexible. This is likely to increase on the approach to an event.
Location: remote/ home based, in-person attendance at events is desirable.
Supported/ supervised by: the Events Trustee, also working closely with volunteers across the Events team
Bi Pride UK’s mission is to create spaces where people who experience attraction beyond gender can be freely visible and celebrate themselves and their identities. It’s not enough to be ‘welcome’ at Pride. We make up a very large proportion of the queer community – the 2021 Census actually shows we’re half of the community – and we deserve to be visible and celebrated in our own right.
There are many ways to make this happen, and we work in many ways to bring this change about:
-
Outreach work with other Prides, LGBTQ+ organisations and bi organisations – our consultation work with local Prides, the UK Pride Organisers Network and local and national LGBTQ+ organisations works in a tailored way to make sure that bi inclusion is a top priority and is being done well
-
Organising a high-profile annual Bi Pride event – from September 2019, Bi Pride UK made history with the largest ever gathering of bi people recorded. A performance stage, a panel stage, stall village, street food, and over 1,300 attendees. After going virtual with the BiFi Festival for 2020 due to Covid-19 and running a virtual Pride event in 2021, we came back in person in 2022 with a hybrid event, and have been running the event in this format ever since
-
Building a strong online and virtual community – just as important as the rest of our work is making sure that people hear about it! People need to know what resources and spaces exist for them, and how they can connect with other people like them
The role:
The Events team at Bi Pride UK is one of the core operational teams within the charity. The team handles programming, production and execution of our events, including our annual flagship Bi Pride event, which holds the record for the largest Bi Pride event in the world. This role will sit at the head of our Events team, supervising managers across the team and taking responsibility for the operational direction of our events. Bi Pride UK’s flagship Bi Pride event is a highlight of the year, and it’s the product of our amazing volunteers’ efforts throughout the year.
The Head of Events is a crucial element of delivering our flagship event, so this is an exciting opportunity to take on a new challenge of building and supporting a team which delivers a vital part of our charity’s strategic work. The Head of Events will supervise four events managers who each oversee a different area of the event, and will lead the whole Events team in their team meetings and decisions regarding the production of our events. They will also work closely with key teams across the charity, including Media & Comms, Inclusion & Access, and Education & Outreach, to place our bi+ communities at the heart of our events and reach the widest audience possible. Our events place great focus on accessibility and inclusion, so the Head of Events will work consciously with the venue, accessibility consultants and technical live-streaming specialists to ensure our hybrid events meet the needs of our audience. They will have freedom to explore new ways to expand and improve our flagship event, and other events that Bi Pride UK could run through the year.
Key tasks of this role include:
-
Reporting to the Events Trustee, as well as working closely with volunteers across the team and charity, to deliver events that meet the charity’s vision;
-
Setting achievable strategic targets and workflows for the team as part of our three year strategy, and supporting volunteers to meet these targets;
-
Overseeing the team’s finances, including setting budgets, tracking sub-team spending, and supporting the Fundraising team with information for grant applications;
-
Supervising a team of year-round volunteers (dedicated to the planning of Bi Pride UK events) and supporting “on-the-day” event volunteers who contribute to the smooth delivery of our events;
-
Working with the Access & Inclusion team and the Accessibility Consultant to implement their recommendations and ensure the event meets high standards of accessibility;
-
Building and maintaining strong relationships with suppliers for various elements of our events;
-
Fostering robust collaboration with key teams and volunteers throughout the organisation to ensure the success and smooth running of our events;
-
Working with the Volunteer Management team to recruit appropriate numbers of volunteers for the year-round Events team and volunteers to support event delivery;
-
Contributing to due diligence reports and taking oversight of contributor contract completion for all areas of the event;
-
Overseeing and supporting all key areas of event delivery, from stages and stalls areas, to volunteers and accessibility.
Our team volunteers remotely from anywhere in the UK, with some travel required occasionally (primarily for our flagship Pride event in London in August). All reasonable expenses incurred are reimbursed, including travel, lunch at away days and other all day events, and some childcare costs if required. The successful candidate will lead monthly Events team meetings on Wednesday evenings via conference call (which will become fortnightly on the approach to an event), in addition to further programming, 1:1 volunteer check-ins, contributors, suppliers and venue meetings as required. Our Trustees and Heads meetings take place via conference call on the third Monday evening of every month.

Bi Pride UK is aware of the barriers that can be faced in gaining traditional work experience, particularly for global majority, disabled and/ or neurodivergent and trans people. We will give weight to this and encourage people when applying to consider caring responsibilities, including parenthood, volunteering, and other non-paid experiences and responsibilities when making their application.
To apply, please submit a CV and cover letter by midnight on 15th February 2026.
The Volunteer Management team will contact you to confirm your application has been received, and will be in contact regarding next steps following the above deadline.

Do you have an entrepreneurial streak? A knack for networking, for making money?
Norwich Pride is coming of age!
We’re turning 18 in 2026 and to make it happen we need more volunteer Organisers.
Can you write successful grant bids? Create sponsorship packages and work effectively with partner organisations?
Are you a good communicator, skilled across a range of software?
Are you local to Norwich and would you like to join the team that brings Norwich Pride to the city each year?
Our vision is to turn Norwich into a rainbow and you could be just who we are looking for to help us achieve that goal as our new ‘Head of Fundraising’.
Norwich Pride is a group of friendly, creative, enthusiastic volunteers from the local lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans (LGBTQIA+) community.
We organise Norwich Pride on the last Saturday each July. A free and community led event that helps to ensure Norwich is a city where everyone feels safe and proud to be themselves.
NB Location: Norwich Pride is rooted in the local community and members of the Organising Team will need to be available for some centrally based face-to-face meetings as well as event preparation nearer the time. Our preference therefore is for local volunteers (Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambs).
Volunteer opportunities are worthwhile and give us all the chance to help important causes in our local community, but you, the volunteer, will also gain from donating your time. Volunteering can help you make friends, grow your CV/career, develop a new skill set, and of course, make a difference.
NB Remuneration: In recognition of the importance of this role to the success of the Norwich Pride event this is the only role within the organisation which attracts a small ‘honorarium’ payment. Norwich Pride Trustees have agreed the amount will be dependent upon the successful candidate’s knowledge, skills and experience.
Good luck, we look forward to receiving your application.
We would like for you to use your Cover Letter to tell us about your skills and experience specifically in relation to the 'Role Requirements' for this post as seen on the Job Description. This will help us with selection.

This Role Protects People, Not Just Content
Tell My Truth and Shame the Devil C.I.C. works with survivors, vulnerable adults, young people, and lived-experience storytellers. Content is not neutral here. It carries emotional, legal, and safeguarding weight.
The Content Approval & Safeguarding Coordinator exists to ensure that nothing goes live unless it is safe, ethical, compliant, and aligned with survivor-centred practice.
This role is a gatekeeper role, not a rubber stamp.
Purpose of the Role
This role sits between content creation and public release.
Its purpose is to:
- Protect survivors
- Protect the organisation
- Protect the community
- Ensure compliance with safeguarding, consent, and data protection standards
This role ensures that growth never comes at the cost of safety.
Experience Qualification and Requirements
Essential Experience
- Experience in safeguarding-focused roles where risk assessment, ethical judgement, and protection of vulnerable individuals are central.
- Experience in content moderation, editorial review, compliance, or approval processes involving sensitive or high-impact material.
- Experience working within survivor-led, trauma-informed, or community-based organisations.
- Experience in social care, youth work, community work, or similar environments involving safeguarding responsibilities.
- Experience assessing risk, balancing impact versus harm, and making defensible approval decisions.
Essential Skills
- Strong operational judgement and ability to make clear, consistent decisions under safeguarding and ethical frameworks.
- Excellent attention to detail, particularly around consent, language, framing, and contextual risk.
- Strong written communication skills for documenting decisions, feedback, and escalation summaries.
- Ability to work collaboratively with content, moderation, safeguarding, and campaign teams.
- Confidence following structured protocols and escalating concerns without delay when thresholds are met
Training & Qualifications
- Formal safeguarding training is essential.
- Ongoing training and guidance will be provided to support continuous learning and alignment with CIC standards.
Note: Lived experience alone is not sufficient for this role; demonstrated operational judgement and safeguarding competence are required.
Main Responsibilities/ Key Duties
- Review all content prior to publication to identify safeguarding risks, consent clarity, trauma exposure, and inappropriate language or framing.
- Apply content approval protocols consistently, ensuring decisions are aligned with safeguarding, ethical, and organisational standards.
- Ensure survivor testimony and sensitive content comply with informed consent requirements, usage agreements, and platform-appropriate boundaries.
- Assess whether content is suitable for public release, restricted distribution, amendment, or rejection based on risk and impact.
- Liaise closely with key stakeholders to ensure joined-up decision-making, including the Content Librarian / Asset Manager, Community Moderation team, Safeguarding Officer, and campaign leads.
- Maintain clear and auditable records of content approvals, rejections, required amendments, and final outcomes.
- Flag and escalate safeguarding concerns, boundary breaches, and high-risk material promptly in line with CIC escalation pathways.
- Support the development, refinement, and documentation of content approval frameworks and trauma-informed content guidelines.
- Contribute to continuous improvement by identifying recurring risks, gaps in guidance, or training needs related to content safety.
This role is not suitable if you:
- Avoid difficult decisions
- Prefer creative freedom over boundaries
- Are uncomfortable challenging others
- Want fast visibility or public-facing credit
- Are seeking immediate paid employment
Important to Be Clear
This is:
- A volunteer role during the build phase
- A position of trust and responsibility
- Not symbolic — this role has real authority
- Paid roles will be introduced as funding and sustainability allow.
Next Steps
Shortlisted applicants will be invited to:
- A safeguarding and judgement-based discussion
- A values and boundaries conversation
If you believe that truth without safety becomes harm, and that accountability must apply internally as well as externally, this role is for you.
A Final Word

If you know that:
- Consent is a safeguarding responsibility
- Judgement must balance impact and harm
- Trust is protected through ethical restraint
