Office and Operations Manager (VOLUNTEER ROLE)

WE’RE RECRUITING AN OFFICE & OPERATIONS MANAGER! (VOLUNTEER ROLE)

Help Us Build a Smooth, Organised, Joy‑Filled Charity Behind the Scenes

Hey you — yes, you, the organised, detail‑loving human who thrives on making things run smoothly and helping others shine.

SUNSHINE Charity is growing, glowing, and getting ready to launch… and we’re looking for a brilliant Office & Operations Manager to help us build the systems, structure and day‑to‑day organisation that keep our charity running with warmth and ease.

If you love people, love purpose, and love being the steady hand behind the scenes, this might be your moment.

Who Are We?

We’re SUNSHINE Charity, a brand‑new grassroots charity working to reduce loneliness and help people feel more connected: through projects, partnerships, and community support.

We’re a start‑up on a mission to bring connection, joy, confidence and belonging back into people’s lives. We create warm, uplifting, community‑based activities that help people step out of isolation and into a world where they feel seen, heard, valued and supported.

We’re all about:

• Human connection

• Positive role models

• Fun, interactive activities

• Confidence‑building experiences

• Community, belonging, and joy

And we want our operations to feel just as strong, safe and sunshine‑filled as our programmes.

Your Role: Office & Operations Manager

This isn’t just any volunteer role — this is your chance to help build the operational heartbeat of a brand‑new charity.

As our Office & Operations Manager, you’ll support the CEO and leadership team by keeping our internal systems organised, our admin running smoothly, and our volunteers supported. You’ll help create the structure that allows SUNSHINE to grow with confidence and care.

You’ll be the organiser, the coordinator, the “we’ve got this” energy behind the scenes.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll help us build a strong, well‑run charity by:

• Managing day‑to‑day office and administrative tasks.

• Supporting the CEO with organisation, scheduling and internal coordination.

• Helping develop simple, friendly systems and processes.

• Keeping documents, records and files organised and up to date.

• Coordinating internal communication across teams and volunteers.

• Supporting volunteer onboarding and general admin.

• Helping ensure our operations are safe, compliant and well‑structured.

• Bringing fresh ideas to the table (we LOVE ideas).

• Being a calm, reliable, friendly presence as we grow.

You don’t need to be an operations expert — just someone who is organised, proactive and excited to help build something meaningful.

Who You Are

You might be perfect for this if you’re:

• A natural organiser who loves structure and clarity.

• Someone who enjoys admin, coordination and keeping things running smoothly.

• A warm communicator with a positive, people‑centred approach.

• Passionate about community, wellbeing and human connection.

• Excited to help build a charity from scratch.

• Happy to roll up your sleeves and get stuck in.

• Someone who believes in kindness, joy and belonging.

If you’ve ever thought “I’d love to help run a charity behind the scenes”… this is your chance.

What You’ll Get Out of It

• A meaningful operational leadership role in a brand‑new charity.

• Real experience in office management, operations and organisational development.

• A supportive, friendly, uplifting team.

• The chance to shape the foundations of SUNSHINE.

• New skills, new confidence, new connections.

• The joy of knowing you’re helping people feel less alone.

• That warm “I helped build something beautiful today” feeling.
