Head of People, Culture & Development – VOLUNTEER

5–10 hours per week | Shoreditch, London | Start‑Up Youth Social Mobility Charity

About REMIX

REMIX is a start‑up, youth‑led social mobility charity transforming young lives across London. Based in Shoreditch, we empower young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to unlock their potential, build confidence, and develop essential life skills through nurturing mentorship, inspiring role models, and transformative opportunities.

We’re in the exciting early stages of building something bold, vibrant, and community‑powered — and we’re looking for a Head of People, Culture & Development who wants to help shape the human side of this movement from the ground up.

The Role

We are seeking a passionate, people‑focused, and values‑driven Head of People, Culture & Development to lead REMIX’s volunteer experience, culture, and people systems as we grow through our start‑up phase and beyond. This is a hands‑on, collaborative role for someone who loves building inclusive environments, supporting others to thrive, and creating the conditions for a healthy, empowered organisation.

You will work closely with the CEO, COO, and Board to shape REMIX’s culture, develop people‑focused processes, and ensure every volunteer, mentor, and young person feels valued, supported, and inspired and help put structures and processes in place to prepare us to become an employer in the very near future.

Time commitment: 5–10 hours per week, including:

• Bi‑monthly Board meetings

• Working groups and leadership sessions

• People, culture, and development tasks, duties and responsibilities

Key Responsibilities

As Head of People, Culture & Development, you will:

• Lead the development of REMIX’s people strategy, culture, and volunteer experience.

• Build inclusive, empowering systems for recruitment, onboarding, training, and development.

• Support the CEO and COO in shaping a positive, collaborative organisational culture.

• Develop policies and frameworks that promote wellbeing, safeguarding, equity, and belonging.

• Create opportunities for volunteers and mentors to grow, learn, and feel part of a movement.

• Support conflict resolution, feedback processes, and healthy communication across the charity.

• Help embed REMIX’s values — empowerment, compassion, equity, resilience, community, integrity — into everything we do.

• Champion diversity, inclusion, and representation across all teams and programmes.

This role blends leadership, people development, culture‑building, and organisational design — perfect for someone who loves working with people and shaping environments where everyone can thrive.

What We’re Looking For

We need someone with previous HR management or people‑leadership experience — we welcome people stepping into this kind of role for the first time. What matters most is your passion for people, your emotional intelligence, and your commitment to building a culture that feels safe, inspiring, and inclusive.

We’re looking for someone who is:

• Passionate about social mobility, youth empowerment, and fairness.

• Warm, empathetic, and excellent with people.

• Entrepreneurial, proactive, and excited by building something new.

• A strong communicator who can support volunteers and leaders alike.

• Confident working collaboratively, but also able to take initiative independently.

• Organised, reliable, and committed to our mission.

• Compassionate, emotionally intelligent, and community‑minded.

Why Join REMIX?

• Play a central role in shaping the culture and people‑experience of a start‑up charity with huge potential.

• Help build a movement that champions equity, compassion, and opportunity.

• Influence how volunteers, mentors, and young people experience REMIX from day one.

• Work with passionate Trustees and volunteers who care deeply about young people.

• Gain leadership experience in people development, culture‑building, and organisational design.

• Make a meaningful, lasting impact on the lives of young Londoners.

This is your chance to shape the soul of a movement.

CLOSING DATE: Monday 30th March 2026, before 6pm
