2. Recruitment & Management:

• Full Cycle Leadership: Lead the entire volunteer lifecycle, from crafting compelling recruitment adverts and screening applications to conducting onboarding sessions and managing off-boarding.

• Motivation & Retention: Develop and implement strategies for continuous volunteer engagement, recognition, and motivation, ensuring high retention rates.

• Performance & Support: Create a supportive framework for check-ins, performance monitoring, and providing necessary support to remote volunteers.

3. Culture & Community:

• Family Culture: Act as the chief advocate for a positive, exciting, and family-like team culture where every remote volunteer feels connected, valued, and non-judgementally supported.

• Communication: Oversee all internal volunteer communications and lead regular virtual team meetings and social events to foster community spirit.

Your Skills & Experience

• Proven Experience: Demonstrated experience (volunteer or professional) in designing, implementing, and managing a successful volunteer programme, HR function, or large remote team.

• Strategic Thinker: Ability to translate the charity’s mission into actionable, scalable, and compliant people processes.

• Policy Acumen: Solid understanding of best practice in compliance, safeguarding, and people management (experience with UK charity regulations is a major plus).

• Tech Savvy: Highly proficient with digital tools essential for remote work (e.g., CRM/databases, Slack/Discord, Google Workspace/Microsoft 365).

• Leadership & Empathy: Exceptional leadership skills with a deep understanding of motivation, emotional intelligence, and non-judgemental communication, aligning with MINDSET's values.

• Time Commitment: Ideally able to commit a set number of hours per week (to be discussed) to drive this programme forward during its critical initial phase.

Why Join MINDSET Charity?

• Maximum Impact: This is your chance to build something from scratch and directly impact how thousands of men across the UK receive support.

• Autonomy: We offer significant autonomy to design the programme you know will work best.

• Previous experience in marketing, communications, or social media is a bonus but not essential – a willingness to learn is most important!

Time Commitment: Flexible, approximately 2-4 hours per week, with tasks that can often be completed remotely or during mutually agreed-upon times, in collaboration with the Project Leader.

Do you live in Wales and want to gain valuable skills, have new experiences, and support vulnerable people? We are offering 1 young person aged 18–25 the opportunity to volunteer with the Portuguese Red Cross in Guimarães, Portugal.

The Portuguese Red Cross in Guimarães supports the local community through a wide range of voluntary activities focused on social inclusion, education, health, and youth engagement.

Volunteers will be involved in several impactful projects, including:

• Supporting elderly people through digital inclusion and companionship
• Promoting healthy lifestyles and safety awareness among children and teenagers
• Assisting in shelters for homeless individuals and long-term care patients
• Organising creative and educational activities in schools, hospitals, and foster homes
• Helping with social media, fundraising, and community events.

Volunteers will stay in a shared house near the city centre, just a short walk from the Red Cross headquarters. The house includes shared bedrooms, a kitchen, living room, bathrooms, and a terrace. Volunteering hours will not exceed 35 hours per week, and volunteers are entitled to two consecutive days of rest. While most weekends are free, occasional weekend activities may take place.

This is a fantastic opportunity to explore your interests, develop new skills, and make a difference in a vibrant and historic city. For more details on the role and the projects available, please refer to the full role description. The most important thing we want to see is your motivation for this placement! These are fully funded placements, with return flights, accommodation and health insurance covered - volunteers receive a small monthly stipend for living expenses.

Please note that only young people based in Wales can apply for this role, as it is Taith funded. Interviews will take place online with shortlisted candidates.

We are keen to hear from individuals especially those who do not normally get the chance to volunteer overseas, who are passionate and motivated about working in the humanitarian sector and international volunteering but who also understand that these types of placements require adaptability and resilience. We are especially interested in applications from those who are from low socio-economic backgrounds, are carers or are care experienced, have accessed free school meals, are refugees or asylum seekers and those with disabilities or additional needs.
