76 Marketing volunteer roles

Role: Marketing & Sales Volunteer (unpaid, expenses covered) 

Location: Remote, UK-based 

Reports to: Executive Director

The Disabled Policy & Advocacy Network (DPAN) is a disabled-led community interest company. We help disabled people know their rights and belong to their movement, and help organisations turn inclusion commitments into practice.

We sell disability-pride merchandise on Etsy to build funds for our work. We're looking for a volunteer to help grow our Etsy sales and increase DPAN's visibility. This is a real chance to build a portfolio, with measurable results you can point to.

What you'll do

• Plan and carry out ideas to grow our Etsy sales, such as listing improvements, keywords, photos and promotions
• Find ways to increase DPAN's visibility online
• Research other platforms where DPAN could promote itself or sell, and recommend which are worth trying
• Develop marketing content for our newsletters, such as shop features and calls to action
• Track what works and share simple results at check-ins
• Work with our social media coordinator on social media marketing, so it lines up across platforms

Who we're looking for

Essential

• Aged 18 or over
• Based in the UK
• Fluent in English
• Experience in digital marketing, through work, study, freelancing or your own projects
• Strong written communication
• Able to think strategically, then plan and follow through

Ideal for: a recent graduate or early-career marketer building a portfolio.

Welcome: lived experience of disability, or a real interest in the disabled people's community.

Time and how we work together

• Hours: about 2 hours a week, which you can spread across the month. Flexible and fully remote.
• Check-ins: a 30–60 minute check-in &/or team meeting once every 4-6weeks
• Contact: you'll report to the Executive Director, working within a wider team that includes the Director's PA and our social media coordinator.
• Flexible: this is a volunteer role, so there are no sales targets. You can step back or stop at any time.

What you'll get

• Real portfolio results: campaigns and sales growth you can show employers
• A reference from DPAN's Executive Director
• Expenses covered: reasonable out-of-pocket costs, agreed in advance
• Experience in a disabled-led social enterprise
• A likely pathway to paid work once DPAN secures funding. As resources allow, DPAN prioritises supporting its volunteers and disabled people into paid opportunities. This isn't guaranteed, and any paid work would be agreed separately in writing.
