Country Coordinator
You will be redirected to the Bradford Volunteer Centre website to express your interest.
The role of Country Coordinator is a fantastic role for people who want to be right at the heart of all that TWAM does. This role directly works with our in-country teams and the recipients of our tools. You will help process all the applications that are received via our online application forms and help make the crucial decisions over who we can and cannot support. You will have the opportunity to go overseas and visit the projects and people you have worked with to supply them with tools. For many of our Country Coordinators, this has proved a life-changing experience. This is a home based role suitable for anywhere in the UK. You will be allocated a country in Africa and will be the first point of contact with everyone from that country who is applying for tools. You will work with your in-country partners who receive our containers and distribute our tools. You may also have a volunteer in-country team to work with as well. You will receive all applications for tools, process those applications and receive payments. All aspects of applications need to be carefully and accurately recorded. You will work directly with the Chief Executive as this is a very senior and strategic role within TWAM. This role is for you if you are determined to make a difference to the lives of people living in extreme poverty. You will be touched by the stories of hardship you hear and inspired by the difference the tools you send truly make and how they transform those stories. You will change entire communities for the better.
What skills do I need?
You will need to be computer literate and competent using Microsoft Office and especially Exel
A clear communicator and well organised person
You will need to be somebody wanting to understand, appreciate and immerse yourself in the culture of another country. You will need to be comfortable communicating with deeply religious, mainly Christian people. You will be willing to learn the challenges of extreme poverty and embrace the dignity of skills training and tools.
