Volunteer Business Consultant

Sported is seeking professionals with expertise in business and strategic planning, finance, marketing and PR, fundraising, governance and impact measurement to support their growing network of community sport and youth groups.

They have volunteering opportunities in Scotland with a range of flexible options. As little as one hour of your time per month could make a massive difference to their network groups.

What could a volunteer gain from the experience?
Sported knows that representation matters, which is why they want their volunteers to reflect the diversity of the community groups they work with. They are actively encouraging applicants from ethnically diverse backgrounds and other minoritised groups to apply as they are currently under-represented in this space. You will get to meet the inspirational faces of community groups across the UK and immerse yourself in their work; use your existing skills in a rewarding fashion whilst developing new ones; guide members to become more inclusive; network with other like-minded individuals helping grassroots sports groups survive; and so much more.

Volunteers say that making a positive difference to their network groups is what they most enjoy about volunteering at Sported.
