Job description

Guide the Journey of Opportunity!!!

At Unlock YOUR Potential, we believe that an "accident of birth" shouldn’t dictate a person’s destination. We are a new London-based charity dedicated to breaking the cycle of deprivation through holistic employability, wellbeing, and mentoring programmes.

We have the vision; now we need the personal connection.

The Mission

We are looking for an empathetic and organised Volunteer Head of Mentoring and Life Coaching. You won’t just be "matching pairs"—you will be the architect of a world-class mentoring ecosystem. You will design the frameworks that turn professional Londoners into life-changing mentors, helping our participants bridge the gap between where they are and where they belong.

What You’ll Do:

  • Mentor Architect: Design the recruitment, training, and matching process for our volunteer mentors and life coaches.

  • Relationship Strategist: Create the "Mentoring Toolkit"—the structured guide that helps mentors support their mentees through the Employability and Life Skills pillars.

  • Coaching Culture: Infuse life-coaching principles (goal setting, active listening, accountability) into the DNA of the charity.

  • Strategic Leadership: Work with the founders to ensure every participant has a dedicated champion in their corner.

What’s in it for you?

  • The Multiplier Effect: By building a mentoring network, your impact is multiplied through every mentor-mentee relationship you facilitate.

  • Leadership at Ground Zero: Build a robust, scalable mentoring programme from scratch for a high-potential London startup.

  • Flexibility: A high-impact, remote-friendly leadership role that fits around your professional schedule.

The Essentials:

  • Experience in Professional Coaching, Mentoring Leadership, or Relationship Management.

  • A deep understanding of how to motivate both mentors (busy professionals) and mentees (adults facing barriers).

  • Exceptional "people skills" and the ability to spot the perfect match between two personalities.

  • A few hours a week to help us build a community of champions.

HELP US Unlock Potential and Breakdown Barriers!
