Join Mobile Food Hub: Make a Real Difference in Your Community
Food insecurity is one of the most pressing issues facing communities today. Rising living costs, the lingering effects of the pandemic, and social inequalities have meant that more people than ever are struggling to put healthy meals on the table. At Mobile Food Hub, we believe that no one should go hungry, and we’re revolutionizing the way communities’ access nutritious food, support, and opportunity.
If you’re looking for a role where your work truly changes lives, joining Mobile Food Hub as a Food Hub Coordinator could be the perfect opportunity.
“This is more than a job—it’s a chance to restore dignity, empower communities, and tackle food insecurity head-on.”
What is Mobile Food Hub?
Mobile Food Hub is not a traditional food bank. While many food banks simply hand out parcels, we go further. Our vision is about healthy, nutritious food, choice, dignity, and community empowerment.
We operate as a mobile service, bringing our hubs directly to areas where our services will have the greatest impact. Each hub provides pre-portioned fresh ingredients, delicious recipes, and support for cooking from scratch. Users get to choose what goes into their meal box and when they want to collect it, giving them control and restoring autonomy that traditional food banks often lack.
Our hubs are also springboards for community initiatives and enterprise opportunities, creating spaces where local people can develop skills, receive advice on employment and benefits, and build supportive networks. By combining food provision with empowerment, training, and mentorship, Mobile Food Hub addresses the root causes of food poverty, not just the symptoms.
Why the Food Hub Coordinator Role Matters
As a Food Hub Coordinator, you are at the heart of this transformative work. You won’t just manage operations—you will be the link between the hub, the community, and the people who rely on our services. Your role is vital in ensuring that our hubs run smoothly, that volunteers are supported, and that the people we serve feel seen, respected, and empowered.
You will:
Process online referrals
Manage communications
Coordinate food deliveries and donations
Manage and support volunteers
You will also be involved in planning and delivering community projects that foster connection, learning, and growth. In this role, you’ll see firsthand the impact of your work on people’s lives—from helping a family access healthy meals to creating opportunities for skills development and social inclusion.
This role is particularly impactful because it combines operational management with community engagement. You will work in a fast-paced environment, but your work has tangible, life-changing outcomes. By joining Mobile Food Hub, you are contributing to a long-term solution to food insecurity, not just temporary relief.
Who We’re Looking For
We are seeking someone with at least one year’s experience in the charity, community, or food sector, including supermarkets, restaurants, or food distribution companies. The ideal candidate is motivated, organised, and passionate about supporting vulnerable communities.
You’ll need strong leadership and organizational skills, with the ability to work independently and as part of a team. Above all, we want someone who believes in the mission of Mobile Food Hub and is committed to making a real difference.
If you thrive in dynamic environments and enjoy supporting others, this is a role where your work will have visible and meaningful impact. You’ll help people regain choice and dignity in how they access food, and you’ll be an integral part of a team that is changing the conversation around food poverty in London.
