About the Volunteer Coordinator role:

At Single Homeless Project (SHP), this is more than a Volunteer Coordinator role – it’s a unique opportunity to shape powerful experiences that connect people, build lasting partnerships, and directly support life-changing services across London. You’ll join a lively, ambitious Fundraising team where ideas are valued, and growth is part of the journey. Working alongside the Corporate Partnerships Lead, your mission will be to design and deliver inspiring volunteering opportunities with businesses and community groups that bring practical help, donations and fresh energy to our programmes.

This is a role that blends creativity, coordination and relationship-building – one day you might be planning an engaging volunteering event in a hostel, the next you're developing a new collaboration with a local company, all while working closely with teams across SHP to make sure every opportunity adds real value. You’ll be part of a team that doesn’t just raise funds – we create meaningful experiences that motivate people to act and support our cause. It’s a brilliant step for someone who wants a career with purpose, where you’re supported to grow and encouraged to innovate. If you’re organised, confident and excited by the chance to make things happen, this role could be the start of something really special.

About you:

A strong project manager, capable of managing multiple priorities.

Proficient in using online programmes such as Canva, Microsoft Office, and with an understanding of CRM’s.
