Join the RAVN Representative Team!
The Australian Volunteers Program is now recruiting new members to join our RAVN Representative team.
From personal experience, it has been one of the most amazing volunteering opportunities for me over the past few years. I have really enjoyed coordinating events, I have learned lots of new things and met really lovely people.
The Australian Volunteers Program is looking for new members to join our team of 2021-2022 RAVN Representatives.
Did you complete your volunteer assignment (including remote volunteer assignment) in the last five years? Are you keen to voluntarily lead RAVN online and in-person networking events and activities, manage and create interesting Facebook content and participate in high-level Australian Volunteers Program advocacy? If yes, then please apply today! We're looking for new members to join our teams in the Australian Capital Territory, Northern Territory, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania and Victoria. We also have a new National Indigenous RAVN Representative role.
Support:
There are two-to-three RAVN Representatives in each state and territory so you will be working in a small team with like-minded alumni.
This volunteer role is supported by the RAVN Manager and RAVN Coordinator and is for a minimum of one year (June 2021 to June 2022), but may be extended for an additional 12 months if agreed to between the Australian Volunteers Program and the RAVN Representative.
Your availability to attend the RAVN Representative planning and training workshop in Melbourne on 26 and 27 June (fully supported) is weighted heavily.
About the RAVN Representative role:
Our RAVN Representatives are highly organised and social people with great event management and communications skills who enjoy working in small teams. They are confident public speakers, are engaged RAVN members and have positive volunteer conduct records.
