HEAD OF VOLUNTEERING (VOLUNTEER ROLE)
SUNSHINE Charity – Because No One Should Live in Lockdown Forever
Do you remember lockdown?
Now imagine living like that every single day — not because of a pandemic, but because loneliness has quietly taken over someone’s life.
At SUNSHINE, we refuse to accept that.
We’re here to bring back warmth, connection, and joy — and we need someone extraordinary to help us do it.
Who We Are
SUNSHINE is a brand‑new, grassroots, 100% volunteer‑powered charity on a mission to end loneliness for Londoners and beyond. We’re small, scrappy, passionate, and building something hopeful from the ground up. We’re currently awaiting our charity number — but our hearts, our mission, and our momentum are already very real.
Our volunteers will be the heartbeat of everything we do. And you will be the one who brings that heartbeat to life.
Your Role: Head of Volunteering
We need someone who can be the driving force behind our entire volunteering programme — someone who can build it, nurture it, and infuse it with the SUNSHINE spirit.
You will:
Design and launch our volunteering programme from scratch.
Create a culture that is warm, supportive, energising and full of sunshine.
Recruit, onboard and train volunteers who want to make a real difference.
Build systems and processes that help volunteers thrive.
Champion retention and motivation, ensuring people feel valued and inspired.
Set the tone for what a joyful, people‑centred, volunteer‑run charity can be.
Your work will shape how SUNSHINE grows, how we support people, and how we bring connection back into lonely lives.
Who You Are
If you’re creative, proactive, and excited by the idea of building something meaningful from the ground up, you’ll fit right in.
Why Join Us Now?
Because this is the moment everything begins.
We’re at the start of our journey — the fragile, hopeful, electric beginning where every idea matters and every person shapes the future.
Your leadership will help someone feel seen again. Your programme will help someone smile again. Your work will help someone feel less alone.
If your heart is saying yes, we want to hear from you.
How to Apply
Send us your CV and a short statement about why this role speaks to you.
We welcome people from all backgrounds, experiences and walks of life.
Let’s bring sunshine back into people’s lives — together.
SUNSHINE is a small grassroots charity that works to reduce loneliness & help people feel more connected: through projects, partnerships & community
