Head of Programmes (Volunteer Role)

Lead the creation and delivery of powerful, action‑based men’s wellbeing programmes across the UK

MINDSET is building a new kind of men’s wellbeing charity — one that speaks the language men actually respond to: action, challenge, humour, and real‑world connection. Our programmes help men grow, open up, and strengthen their mental wellbeing through shared experiences, movement, and practical personal development.

We’re now looking for a founding volunteer to lead the development and delivery of our core programmes, including our pilot 12‑week Self‑Improvement Programme, our Life Coaching Programme, and future initiatives that support men’s mental wellbeing and personal growth nationwide.

This is a rare opportunity to shape the direction, quality, and impact of a charity at its beginning.

What This Role Is About

You’ll be the driving force behind our programmes — designing them, refining them, delivering them, and ensuring they stay aligned with our mission and values. You’ll work closely with the founder and board to turn ideas into structured, powerful experiences that genuinely change men’s lives.

This role is perfect for someone who loves personal development, understands men’s wellbeing, and thrives in a hands‑on, creative, purpose‑driven environment.

Key Responsibilities

1. Lead Programme Design & Development

• Shape the structure, content, and delivery of our 12‑week Self‑Improvement Programme

• Develop our Life Coaching Programme and future wellbeing initiatives

• Ensure all programmes reflect our action‑based, stigma‑free approach

• Build frameworks, session plans, and participant journeys

2. Oversee Programme Delivery

• Facilitate or coordinate the facilitation of sessions

• Ensure sessions are safe, engaging, and aligned with our ethos

• Monitor participant progress and gather feedback

• Adapt and improve programmes based on real‑world learning

3. Build and Support the Programme Team

• Recruit, train, and support volunteer facilitators and coaches

• Create a culture of confidence, compassion, and reliability

• Ensure volunteers feel equipped, valued, and inspired

4. Maintain Quality, Safety, and Impact

• Ensure safeguarding and best practice are embedded in all programmes

• Track outcomes, engagement, and participant wellbeing

• Help shape our long‑term programme strategy and national rollout

5. Innovate and Expand

• Identify new programme opportunities that support men’s growth

• Bring creativity, challenge, and fresh ideas to the table

• Help us build a movement that feels alive, relevant, and transformative

Who This Role Is Perfect For

Someone who is:

• Passionate about men’s mental wellbeing and personal growth

• Experienced in coaching, facilitation, programme design, or community leadership

• Confident leading groups and shaping experiences

• Organised, proactive, and excited by building something from scratch

• Able to balance structure with creativity

• Comfortable working with men from all backgrounds

• Energised by challenge, humour, and real‑world connection

What You’ll Get Out of This

• A founding leadership role in a bold, needed charity

• The chance to design programmes that will impact men nationwide

• Experience in programme development, coaching, and facilitation

• A supportive, mission‑driven team

• Training, development, and opportunities to grow

• The deep satisfaction of seeing men transform through your work
