Interesting or nice about this vacancy
We are a dynamic volunteer organization in the heart of Vries with a wide range of activities.
Every week, more than 100 volunteers participate in various activities: studios, the garden, the kitchen, the herb workshop, workshops, and in the office. These are people of different ages, cultures, and backgrounds: from those fully engaged in life, those afflicted by health issues, and newcomers to people who, for whatever reason, rarely socialized; together, we form a warm community. Plaats de Wereld is a volunteer organization and operates thanks to the dedication of all these people. To manage this effectively, a major role is reserved for the volunteer coordination team, led by a professional internal affairs coordinator.
Within the volunteer coordination team, which is currently staffed by 5 volunteer coordinators and managed by a professional, the recruitment and selection of new volunteers is carried out. This also includes caring for existing volunteers and designing the necessary administrative processes.
