Context and Background
The NSPCC is the UK’s leading children's charity. Everything we do protects children today and prevents abuse tomorrow, to transform society for every child. With over 100 years’ experience, our people and partners’ collective power is focused on ending child abuse.
Every child deserves to be loved, cared for, and protected. That’s why the NSPCC listens and responds to children’s evolving needs. Through investing in new services and solutions that combine practice, policy, lived experience and research, we create, deliver and share the most effective ways to protect children.
Our work includes the world-famous Childline service, and our policy, research and campaigning bring about the changes that children need. The NSPCC’s hubs are embedded in areas across the UK, with local teams empowering partners and communities to come together to prevent child abuse and neglect.
We are part of the way through our ten-year strategy focused on creating a safer society for all children, and its delivery will only be possible with our donors’ support. The Income Generation Directorate, which leads the NSPCC’s efforts to raise funds, has evolved into one of the most successful in the sector.
Following a review of the directorate’s income, statutory funding was identified as a significant growth area for the NSPCC, with a new team created in response. Over a four-year period, the Statutory Team has built its pipeline to now secure circa £5 million per annum. There is significant opportunity for further growth, with the team’s role expanding from working with statutory funders across England, Wales and Northern Ireland, to also working on research and tendering opportunities.

JOB OVERVIEW
Do you want to work for an organisation that makes a real difference, every day, to people from all walks of life? This is an exciting opportunity for someone working in the volunteering or community sector to join the Brent Irish Advisory Service (BIAS) as Volunteer Manager and help take our successful volunteer project to the next level.
BIAS’s volunteer project, funded through a grant from the National Lottery Community Fund, provides meaningful opportunities for people to get involved in BIAS’s work in a number of different ways. Volunteers can help out at our active ageing clubs, or work on administrative projects and other office-based tasks to help them build up their professional skills. In 2023 we also launched a successful ‘Be-A-Friend’ scheme, which aims to connect volunteers with older people who live on their own. Volunteers will drop in regularly for a cup of tea and a chat, providing friendship and companionship to those experiencing loneliness and isolation. BIAS’s volunteer project is currently based in Brent, but it will potentially be rolled out into Haringey in future years.
We are looking for a dynamic, enthusiastic and empathetic person to take the lead on managing and growing our volunteer project. You will be responsible for all aspects of the project, including volunteer recruitment and induction, service-user relations, safeguarding and partnership development. You will also work with the Operations Manager on forward planning, delivery monitoring, promotion and reporting.
You will need to have strong people skills and the ability to build good working relationships with colleagues, volunteers, service users and partners, along with excellent organisational skills and the ability to work independently and take initiative. Previous experience of working with volunteers or running community projects would be an asset. If you work in a related field and are looking for a new challenge, please consider applying as we are willing to consider appointing the right candidate as a training and development role.
KEY WORK AREAS AND MAIN DUTIES
- Working with the Operations Manager to develop and deliver BIAS’s volunteer project.
- Line-managing the Befriending Coordinator and supervising the successful delivery and expansion of the Be-A-Friend scheme.
- Managing volunteer recruitment, interviewing candidates and matching them with appropriate roles.
- Supporting, developing and retaining our current team of volunteers.
- Managing volunteer training needs, ensuring that all necessary safeguarding, health-and-safety and data-protection requirements are met.
- Working closely with colleagues and external organisations to develop working partnerships and explore collaboration opportunities, e.g. intergenerational volunteering projects.
- Organising twice-yearly volunteer social events.
- Promoting and raising public awareness of both BIAS’s volunteering opportunities and the wider importance of volunteering.
- Evaluating and improving the volunteering process and experience.
- Maintaining clear records of volunteer work in BIAS’s client management system.
- Drafting reports and case studies to demonstrate the project’s progress and value.
- Maintaining an awareness of policy changes and best practices in volunteering.
These are the basic duties required of the Volunteer Manager. However, it is necessary for all staff to be flexible and you may be required from time to time to perform other reasonable duties which are required for the efficient running of the organisation. We will also offer training opportunities to support your career development.
Candidates must be eligible to work in the UK. This role will be based primarily in our offices in Willesden (Brent), with travel throughout the borough and potentially some future outreach work in Haringey borough. There may be some options for flexible working following probation (one to two days per week).
ABOUT BIAS
BIAS is a local charity which has supported England’s largest Irish community in Brent for over forty-five years. We deliver our support through our welfare advice drop-in service, our Active Ageing Clubs and our Be-a-friend volunteer scheme. We raise over £1.5 million in extra income for the most vulnerable every year and have over 3000 attendances at our club services. BIAS has exciting plans for expansion into Haringey in 2025 and has a range of medium- to long-term grant funding, including from Ireland’s Emigrant Support Programme.
