📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

SIW International Volunteer Projects is looking for a creative, motivated volunteer to join our marketing and communications team for a one-year European Solidarity Corps (ESC) project. This is a great chance to gain hands-on experience in marketing, communications, and volunteer coordination while supporting meaningful global initiatives. SIW is a volunteer-run exchange organization offering international volunteer placements. As an ESC volunteer, you'll help with: - volunteer placements - digital marketing and email campaigns to promote our projects and mission - CRM (Monday.com) optimization - You'll update and maintain our WordPress website with SEO/SEA in mind - assist in organizing events - analyze and improve communication strategies using basic analytics - and general support with IT tools and templates You'll also help with office tasks, customer relations, and cultural activities. Time for personal development is included.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Our office is in the heart of Utrecht, a vibrant historic university city in the centre of the Netherlands. Your apartment with a private bedroom and shared kitchen/living area is above the office. The trainstation and restaurants, bars and shops are all within walking distance. We also have a bicycle for you so you can move around like a real Dutchie. Of course you will receive monthly pocket money and food money. Travel costs are reimbursed for the trip from home to the project and back, based on distance. We encourage you to travel green and come by train or bus.

🎒 Leisure activities

Half a working day a week is dedicated to your self-development. To reflect on your progress, tasks and personal goals you will have meetings with your mentor and the ESC coordinator. You will attend the on-arrival and mid-term training organised by the National Agency and meet volunteers of other ESC projects within the Netherlands. SIW will offer you different assignments and training opportunities and you will be able to learn Dutch. We will assign you a buddy who can help with practical questions, finding fun activities, or even doing them together.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: We're looking for: - a passionate, social person who loves connecting with others and exploring new cultures - with a background in or a knack for marketing (think proven experience in data analysis, CRM systems or e-mailmarketing), you’re all about strong communication and teamwork - you're independent but flexible, always ready to take on new challenges and learn on the go. - it is important that you are independent on a personal level as well as in your work and that you are not afraid to go and create a social life for yourself outside of the office - you’re curious about the Dutch language and culture (bonus if you already know a bit of Dutch!) and don’t mind diving into a fast-paced, ever-changing environment like an NGO. !

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
What do we provide ?
  • Training before and after the project
  • Health insurance during your project
  • round-trip travel reimbursement
  • accommodation and food
  • pocket money
  • language course
  • Return Week-end
