Interesting about this job
- You work with other enthusiastic volunteers.
- You and the other volunteers make a difference for fellow city dwellers.
- You apply your talent to your time.
Job tasks and duties
Are you good at DIY or do you have green fingers?
Are you good at laying laminate or were you born with the paint roller in your hand?
Or do you enjoy helping with removals?
And would you like to use those talents on a regular basis for people who cannot do it themselves and who do not have opportunities for others to do so either?
Then flexworker is probably something for you. Present Groningen works with a pool of flexworkers: the flexteam. Flexworkers are people who sign up as individuals. You can decide per project whether you join and participate. Ideal if you want to do something on a regular basis but want to decide when you can and which projects you want to join.
Job skills and qualities
- You have access to WhatsApp.
- Having your own tools is very useful.
- You can collaborate with other volunteers.
- You are flexible.
Extra information
The flex team works as follows:
- If you sign up, we will contact you for an introduction to hear what suits you! You will then get access to the whatsapp group of the flexteam.
- The whatsapp group shares projects that need to be done at short notice. You respond within the specified timeframe if you can on the date mentioned and the activity suits you. If there are enough people then the project can be taken up. If you can't then you don't have to do anything either.
- In addition, an availability form is posted a few times a year. In it, you can indicate which of the listed dates you are available for a project. If there are three or more volunteers for a date, the project will go ahead on that date.
- For each project, a temporary app group is created with the volunteers participating in the project. This is where the details of the project are discussed. So the composition may vary from project to project.
- If you can use your own tools, that is much appreciated, but it is definitely not a must.
- At a job, we take the time to get to know the resident so that everyone has a nice day!
- Present handles the preparation, the flex group does the job!
- A project usually takes place between 9:00 and 14:00,
- You decide how often and when you join a project. Very flexible!
