Volunteer officer

Are you looking for the opportunity to lead and develop a volunteer programme?

In 2021 Moorfields Charity launched a charity engagement volunteer programme. The volunteers primarily work from the charity hub in the City Road site and are there to be advocates for the charity’s fundraising and grant making activities. This is still a new programme and a great opportunity for the right person to bring their knowledge of volunteer management to really shape and grow it.

About the role

This is a varied role that will require you to lead on all aspects of the charity engagement volunteer programme. This will include the recruitment, on-boarding and management of the volunteers. You will be supported by a fundraising assistant.

You will develop, deliver and grow the volunteer programme to promote the work of the charity to visitors to City Road and other Moorfields’ sites, raising the visibility of the charity and securing new contacts and supporters. You will also be responsible for maintaining a rota of charity staff and volunteers to run the charity hub in City Road.

About you

This is a fantastic part-time opportunity for a confident, pro-active self-starter who enjoys working with volunteers and understands the value they bring to an organisation. You will be motivated by growing and shaping this new programme.

Your experience may come from working in a charity or a marketing/membership organisation. You will have the ability to bring people together, engage them with the charity’s mission and empower them to contribute to the programme.

You will have excellent communication skills with the ability to write engaging copy for different audience across varied communications channels.
