We are looking for an organised, thoughtful and self-motivated person to help lead the next chapter of our work.

This is a rare opportunity to play a central role in a small charity with a global reach.

About Be One

Be One is a collective giving charity that funds grassroots projects in underserved communities around the world.

Our members each make an affordable monthly donation which, when combined, funds life-changing projects that help communities create lasting change for themselves and future generations.

Since 2011, Be One has raised more than £900,000 and supported projects benefiting over 800,000 people.

We operate a 100% donation model, meaning every pound donated by our members goes directly to project work. Our operational costs are covered separately by a network of generous business supporters.

The Role

The Charity Operations Manager is responsible for the day-to-day running of Be One.

This is a paid freelance, remote role with highly flexible hours, typically averaging around half a day per week. The workload varies throughout the year, with busier periods around campaigns, board meetings and grant application cycles.

The role is designed to fit alongside other work, consultancy projects, family commitments or semi-retirement and would suit someone who enjoys working independently while contributing to meaningful social impact.

Charity Operations & Administration

• Managing the day-to-day administration of the charity
• Maintaining records, trackers and shared systems

Who We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone who is:

• Highly organised and reliable
• Comfortable working independently
• A clear and confident communicator
• Accurate with records, details and deadlines
• Confident using digital tools such as Google Workspace, Excel, Mailchimp, Canva and WordPress
• Interested in grassroots charities, international development and collective giving

Previous experience in the charity sector is helpful but not essential. We are most interested in finding someone who shares our values and can bring enthusiasm, initiative and strong organisational skills to the role.
