• Communicating with external organisations to raise awareness regarding volunteering opportunities at Oaktree.
• Building and maintaining relationships with external organisations for learning and development opportunities.
• Guiding the development of an online learning pathway to guide volunteers through relevant training throughout their time at Oaktree.

 

WE ARE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WHO:

• Has great written and verbal communication skills.
• Is a people person who can support and guide the volunteers they work with.
• Is committed to process improvement and streamlining.
• Feels comfortable working independently and in being part of a small team.

 

WHAT YOU WILL GET OUT OF IT:

• Build your personal and professional network in an amazing community.
• Make an impact in Australia and globally that provides young people with the opportunity to thrive.
• Be increasingly exposed to new and exciting opportunities.

 

We value will over skill, determination over degrees, and passion over years of experience. So go for it. Put your name forward!
