Welcome to Reach Volunteering. We are a community and registered charity that connects people, skills and good causes.

To apply for this role, and any other on our platform, you need to be based in the UK, have at least three years of experience using the skills you wish to volunteer in a professional capacity or have lived experience (for trustee roles). Read more about our criteria.

Help us secure brand partnerships and sponsorships that support our neurodivergent-led programmes — ideal for someone with experience in brand strategy, CSR, or corporate partnerships who wants to make a difference.

What will you be doing?

We’re looking for someone who lives and breathes brand partnerships — someone who understands how consumer brands work, how sponsorship deals are done, and how to position a grassroots social impact organisation for success.

We’re a small but ambitious charity, led by and for neurodivergent people, providing free tech education and wellbeing support to young people aged 14–25. We’re ready to build brand partnerships to support and grow our work — and we need someone who knows how to make that happen.

You might be:

A brand partnerships manager or executive working for a well-known brand
A CSR (corporate social responsibility) or ESG professional leading social impact strategy
A sponsorship lead at a brand, agency or media owner
A partnerships or fundraising specialist at a major charity or social enterprise
A marketing, brand or PR professional with experience structuring cause-related campaigns
A consultant or advisor who has built successful brand/nonprofit relationships

We’d love your help to:

Shape our brand partnership strategy and identify best-fit potential partners
Package our programmes and impact in a way that aligns with brand values and CSR priorities
Advise on how and when to pitch to potential sponsors
Make introductions or help us build a strong pipeline of opportunities
Support us in creating materials, decks, or messaging that work in a corporate setting

We’re especially interested in partnerships around:

Brand-aligned funding and sponsorship
Co-branded campaigns or social value initiatives
Support-in-kind (e.g. laptops, software, services)
Volunteering or mentoring programmes that engage staff
Opportunities that spotlight our neurodivergent talent pipeline

What are we looking for?

We’re looking for someone who truly understands how brand partnerships work — someone with experience creating meaningful connections between companies and causes. You may have worked client-side, agency-side, or in a nonprofit/charity setting, but you know how to spot alignment, pitch a story, and structure a win-win partnership.

Our ideal volunteer is strategic, creative, and tuned into how consumer brands are approaching social impact, inclusion, and purpose-led marketing in today’s world.

You might be:

A brand partnerships manager or senior exec at a well-known brand
A CSR or ESG strategist working in-house or as a consultant
A sponsorship lead at a media agency or rights holder
A corporate partnerships manager or fundraiser from the nonprofit sector
A marketing or PR professional with experience in cause-led campaigns or community impact
A creative strategist or planner who understands how to align brand values with social causes
A communications, social impact or DEI professional passionate about neurodiversity and inclusion

Experience and qualities we’re looking for:

A strong understanding of how brand partnerships and sponsorships are scoped, evaluated, and secured
Knowledge of the trends in CSR, purpose-driven marketing, or brand-funded social impact
Experience identifying prospects, crafting proposals, and communicating value to corporate audiences
Confidence advising a small charity team on where to focus, how to approach, and how to present our work
Ideally, some connections or warm insight into relevant sectors (tech, education, youth, inclusion, etc.)

Bonus (not essential):

Experience with in-kind partnerships (e.g. donations of laptops, software, creative services)
Familiarity with neurodiversity, inclusion, or equity-focused initiatives

What difference will you make?

Your expertise could unlock the funding and visibility we need to bring life-changing opportunities to more neurodivergent young people.

You’ll help us position ourselves in a way that resonates with brands — building relationships that are not just about charity, but about alignment, values, and mutual benefit. Your advice and connections could lead to:

Multi-year sponsorships that sustain and grow our work
In-kind support that helps us equip and empower learners
Campaign partnerships that raise awareness and challenge stigma
Volunteering and mentoring opportunities that connect brands to real impact

Many brands want to support equity, inclusion, and neurodiversity — but don’t know where to start. With your guidance, we can be the right partner at the right time.

You’ll be amplifying a neurodivergent-led movement, supporting free tech education, and helping young people discover their potential — while giving brands a way to show up with real purpose.
