We do this by equipping a global network of faith-formed leaders with the habits and skills they need to act across deep divides and transform unhealthy conflict. With more than 20 years of experience in the field, we specialise in creating spaces for faithformed leaders to encounter each other authentically, re-humanising those they no longer see or hear, and working towards a more peaceful future where both sides flourish – one in which their differences still matter.

Citizens Advice offers confidential advice online, over the phone, and in person, for free. Through our national network of charities, we give people the knowledge and the confidence they need to find their way forward – whoever they are, and whatever their problem.
Volunteers are at the heart of how we deliver the Citizens Advice service. There are currently 14,000 volunteers involved in the delivery, running and governance of our service. We’re currently part way through an exciting transformation programme for volunteering at Citizens Advice, working in collaboration with stakeholders across our network to adapt and evolve our volunteering offer to ensure volunteering can continue to play its fullest role in our mission.
Our volunteer recruitment transformation project is a priority work stream in the overall transformation programme. The project aims to build a more robust journey for potential volunteers through the national website via the implementation of a volunteering application system, making it easier for people to apply to volunteer and for us to efficiently direct volunteer resources to where they’re most needed within our federated service. This, in turn, will lay the foundations for us to deliver higher-profile volunteer recruitment campaigns to raise the profile of Citizens Advice as a great place to volunteer and drive up the number and diversity of our volunteer applicants. This work is more important than ever as more and more people are coming to us for help.
We’re looking for a Volunteering Systems & Recruitment Officer to support the delivery of this exciting project. Working closely with the Head of Volunteering and a Senior Delivery Manager, you’ll use your volunteering expertise to inform the successful development and implementation of the new system.
Working alongside a Senior Delivery Manager and bringing in support from expert external agency(ies) as required you’ll use your strong project management skills to support effective delivery of the remaining project phases. This includes procurement, set-up, testing and roll-out of the new system. You’ll use your excellent stakeholder engagement skills to ensure effective engagement of stakeholders across our network throughout the project lifecycle. You’ll work closely with colleagues in the Brand and Marketing team to design and develop promotional campaigns for volunteering to increase the volume and diversity of volunteer applications.
You’ll be part of a friendly, supportive and committed team with the opportunity to make a real impact on the delivery of our services at a time when they’re never more needed.
Please apply with your CV and cover letter detailing the below essential criteria
- Supporting system development and roll-out, preferably in a volunteering context.
- Excellent knowledge of good practice and customer experience in volunteering.
- Excellent stakeholder management experience and skills.
- Confident and comfortable working autonomously and developing own workload to meet agreed milestones and outcomes.
Do you want to work for an organisation that makes a difference, every single day, to people from all walks of life? The people who turn to Citizens Advice need help overcoming an obstacle in their lives – from debt to evictions to trouble at work – and you can be key to them getting the support they need in the quickest, easiest, and most effective way.
Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) is of strategic importance within the organisation and recognised as integral to all we do as a service.
Central to pursuing our EDI mission is building diverse and inclusive teams in which everyone has a sense of belonging. We believe inclusion is a social justice issue - a principle that underpins our all EDI work.

We follow the social model of disability. We will offer an interview to disabled candidates who indicate they wish their application to be considered under our Disability Confident Interview Commitment where they meet our selection criteria in their application. Some of our roles attract a high volume of applications and in some circumstances where it is not practicable or appropriate, we may limit the number of interviews offered to disabled and non-disabled candidates. We will provide reasonable adjustments as needed.
We’re a flexible employer, so this role may suit anyone who’d prefer a flexible arrangement to help their work/life balance, many of our colleagues spend most of their time working remotely. Whilst we prefer a blended approach between a local office, if one is near you, and home we’re open to being flexible on location, occasionally a role may require you to be based in a certain location if that's the case it will be detailed in the advert or job description. This can be discussed in more detail during your interview.

About the team
The Strategy Enablement directorate brings together our core support functions of HR Delivery, Finance, Tech & Data, Governance, Planning and Property. Led by the Director of Strategy Enablement and four Assistant Directors.

Striving to be a centre of excellence we work with colleagues to ensure organisational objectives are clear and strategically aligned, whilst supporting with the removal of any internal obstacles that emerge on the way.
About Shelter
A home is a fundamental human need, as essential as education or healthcare. Yet millions of people across Britain struggle on a daily basis with homelessness, bad housing conditions, soaring rents, discrimination and the threat of eviction. So, we are striving for change, with individuals, in communities, across society, and leading the way to a safe home. We need ambitious, best-in-class individuals who are passionate about our cause to join us at this exciting time. This is your chance to play a part in the fundamental change we are striving to achieve.
At Shelter we are united by our purpose to defend the right to a safe home. Our enemy is the social injustice at the core of the escalating housing emergency. We believe that to win that fight, we must be representative of the people we are here to help and those who support our movement for change. In all our people decisions, we take pride in being inclusive, fair, equitable and transparent.
We are committed to combatting racism both within and outside Shelter and welcome you on our journey to becoming a truly anti-racist organisation.
