Charity Administrator & Board Secretary - VOLUNTEER ROLE

We’re Searching for a Brilliant Organiser & Governance Champion — Could It Be You?

Unlock YOUR Potential is a brand‑new East London charity with a bold mission: to open doors for adults who need support, confidence, and real opportunities to move forward in their careers and lives. Through employability skills, mentoring, coaching, and community‑driven programmes, we’re here to help people step into their future with pride and possibility.

But every impactful charity needs someone who keeps everything running smoothly behind the scenes — someone who brings order, clarity, and good governance to the heart of the organisation.

And that’s where you come in.

We’re looking for a volunteer Charity Administrator & Board Secretary to support our operations and ensure strong governance from day one.

Just a few hours a week — but with the power to shape the professionalism, structure, and effectiveness of our charity.

What this role is all about

You’ll help us:

• Manage the day‑to‑day admin that keeps the charity running smoothly

• Support the Board of Trustees with agendas, minutes, and governance tasks

• Maintain accurate records, policies, and compliance documents

• Coordinate meetings and ensure we follow good practice

• Help set up simple, effective administrative systems

• Act as the non‑trustee Board Secretary, ensuring clarity and accountability

• Support the founders as we move from set‑up to launch and beyond

Your work will help us stay organised, compliant, and ready to deliver life‑changing support across East London.

Who we hope to find

Someone who:

• Loves organisation, structure, and keeping things on track

• Enjoys admin and takes pride in accuracy and clarity

• Understands (or is keen to learn about) charity governance and good practice

• Wants to give back in a way that strengthens a whole organisation

• Can offer a few hours a week to help build our foundation

• Feels energised by supporting a mission that changes lives

Why your contribution matters

• You won’t just be doing admin — you’ll be shaping the backbone of our charity.
• You’ll help us operate professionally, transparently, and confidently.
• You’ll ensure our Board is supported, our records are accurate, and our governance is strong.
• And you’ll play a vital role in helping us launch a charity that East London can trust and rely on.

Your organisation becomes the engine that powers our mission.

If you’re passionate about organisation, community, and making a real difference in East London and beyond, this is your moment.

Join us. Help build the structure that unlocks someone’s future.
