Job description

Are you passionate about changing the way we treat animals? Do you want to help reduce environmental damage? Do you want to inspire people to enjoy healthy vegan food that both looks good and tastes great? 

The Vegan Society aims to make veganism more accessible. We help people to adopt a vegan lifestyle by supporting individuals, policy and decision-makers, caterers, manufacturers, healthcare professionals and the media. 

Why do we need you? 

When people follow a vegan diet, they often eat more fruit and vegetables and enjoy meals higher in fibre and lower in saturated fat. Well-planned vegan diets can support healthy living in people of all ages, which is a message supported by the British Dietetic Association. Vegan Society resources are created to help people to learn more about replacing animal foods with healthy plant foods. They have been developed with the help of our registered Dietitians Andrea Rymer and Emily Angus (McKee). Our dietitians are looking for support with a project to create a menu booklet for vegan meals served in prison. 

What does the role involve? 

Nutritional analysis of a four-week menu cycle including macro and micronutrient data and supporting with the design of a simple and easy-to-read menu from excel spreadsheet data of recipes and ingredients for batch cooking. 

What training and support is available? 

This role will come with an induction session and a regular point of contact. However, the work will be carried out remotely, and the volunteer will be expected to work independently. We are therefore looking for someone who already has the necessary skills and will not require any training apart from being shown The Vegan Society website and resources. Regular check-ins with the Dietetics team will take place. 

What skills would be useful for this role? 

  • Nutritional analysis (preferably Nutritics but not limited to)
  • Access to a nutritional analysis software with UK food databases 
  • Attention to detail 
  • A strong understanding of how to identify reliable sources of information 
  • The ability to work independently 

What does my availability need to be? 

This is a six-month fixed term role. We ask for volunteers to commit to four hours a week, although this may vary from week to week. Volunteering can be done outside traditional working hours and in any time zone. However, staff support will only be available between 9am and 5pm UK time and monthly check-ins will take place during this time. We ask volunteers to commit to a minimum of six months to make the best use of recruitment and induction time and to get the best out of their volunteering experience. 

Who does this role report to? 

Andrea Rymer, Emily Angus (McKee) our Dietitians.
