Job description

HEAD OF EXTERNAL AFFAIRS – VOLUNTEER

Lead the national conversation on men’s wellbeing — and put MINDSET on the map

Most men don’t want to sit in a circle and “talk about their feelings.” They want challenge. They want action. They want brotherhood. They want to grow — without feeling like they’re in therapy.

MINDSET is the brand‑new men’s wellbeing charity built around exactly that. We’re creating a tribe where men step up, show up, and level up — through real‑world connection, shared experiences, and practical, stigma‑free support that actually works.

And now we’re looking for a Head of External Affairs who can take this movement into the public arena — shaping how the world sees men, masculinity, and mental health.

This role is for the leader who…

  • Thrives on influence, strategy, and high‑level relationship‑building.

  • Can confidently represent a new charity on the national stage.

  • Understands how to build credibility, visibility, and trust.

  • Can turn a bold mission into compelling narratives people want to support.

  • Is politically aware, media‑savvy, and unafraid to challenge outdated thinking.

  • Knows how to build partnerships that unlock opportunity and scale.

  • Believes men deserve better — and is ready to help change the system.

If you’re the kind of person who sees a blank page and thinks “this is my moment,” you’ll feel right at home here.

What You’ll Be Building

Our mission isn’t just to support men — it’s to shift culture.

As Head of External Affairs, you’ll shape how MINDSET shows up in the world and how the world responds. You’ll lead the charge on:

  • Public affairs and advocacy that push men’s wellbeing up the national agenda.

  • Media and communications that cut through clichés and stigma.

  • Strategic partnerships with organisations, influencers, and institutions.

  • Brand reputation and public narrative, ensuring MINDSET is seen, heard, and respected.

  • Campaigns and messaging that speak the language men actually respond to.

  • Stakeholder engagement across government, business, and the charity sector.

This isn’t just PR — it’s cultural transformation.

Why This Matters

Men are struggling in silence. Traditional services aren’t reaching them. And the public conversation is stuck in stereotypes.

We’re rewriting the script — and your work will determine how far that message travels.

When men move, talk, laugh, challenge themselves, and support each other, transformation happens naturally. We’re building a space where that transformation becomes normal — and your leadership will help the world understand why it matters.

What You’ll Gain

  • A defining leadership role in a charity at its very beginning.

  • The chance to shape national‑level influence from day one.

  • A brotherhood of passionate volunteers who believe in the mission.

  • Real responsibility, real visibility, and real legacy.

  • The satisfaction of knowing your work is changing — and saving — lives.

If you’re ready to shape the public face of a movement…

  • If you want to lead conversations, not just manage communications…
  • If you want to help men thrive, not just cope…
  • If you want to be part of a charity that finally speaks the language men respond to…

We want to hear from you.

Apply now and help us build the future of men’s wellbeing.
