FOUNDING CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER
Build the Engine of a Movement That Will Change Lives
Loneliness is one of the quietest crises of our time. Every day, people walk through London feeling unseen, unheard, and disconnected — not because they are alone, but because they don’t feel like they belong.
SUNSHINE was created to change that.
Born from a deeply personal promise that nobody should have to face loneliness alone, SUNSHINE is building a movement where connection becomes a lifeline and belonging becomes a right.
We’re searching for a Founding Chief Operating Officer — a compassionate, visionary leader who wants to help build this organisation from the ground up.
This isn’t an ordinary volunteer role. This is the chance to architect a future where thousands of people find friendship, hope and community.
Your Mission
As our Founding COO, you will:
-
Shape the day‑to‑day heartbeat of SUNSHINE.
-
Turn ideas into action and vision into reality.
-
Build systems, processes and foundations that will last for generations.
-
Work closely with our Founder to bring SUNSHINE’s promise to life.
Who You Are
You’re reliable, collaborative, organised and full of heart. You don’t need decades of charity experience — just a belief that kindness can change the world.
Why This Matters
- Because every system you build…
- Every process you design…
- Every decision you help shape…
Will directly help someone feel seen, valued and connected.
If you’re ready to help build something meaningful — something that will outlive all of us — we’d be honoured to welcome you.
Join SUNSHINE.
Help build a future where nobody faces loneliness alone.
SUNSHINE is a small grassroots charity that works to reduce loneliness & help people feel more connected: through projects, partnerships & community
