About the Organisation
Sport Local Action is a non-profit CIC built on one belief: sport has the power to change lives. The organisation does two main things. First, it amplifies the great work sport already does in communities — shining a light on the clubs, charities and individuals tackling knife crime, mental health, reoffending, poverty and isolation, so they get the visibility, connections and funding they deserve. Second, through the Sports Bank, it removes the financial barriers standing between young people and playing sport, funding kit, travel and coaching for those who'd otherwise miss out.
Every role is flexible and fully remote — volunteers can do as much or as little as they want, working around their own schedule from wherever suits them.
About the Role
The Volunteer Coordinator will work alongside the Founder to look after Sport Local Action's volunteer team — making sure everyone's work is valued, well targeted, and put to good use, while checking in that volunteers are getting what they need from the experience too. It's a people-focused role at the heart of how the organisation runs.
The Impact You'll Have
This role keeps volunteers well supported and effectively deployed, so their time translates into real impact for the Sport for Good sector and the Sports Bank.
What You'll Need
Experience coordinating people or volunteers is welcome but not essential — good communication, organisation, and genuinely caring about people's experience matters just as much. Training and support are available.
Volunteering is currently open to people in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
