Applications open until 15 January 2027

YouthShare reserves the right to close this listing before that date, as soon as the right person is found. We therefore encourage you to apply now.

The one-year commitment

A non-profit project is built over time. Every volunteer therefore commits for at least one year: time to settle in, carry the assignment through and pass on what they have learned. The weekly time depends on the role and is given in each role description.

How selection works

  1. Online application

    You choose a role, present your background and attach your CV. A confirmation email gives you your reference.

  2. Profile review

    The Talent team reads every application, matches it with the needs of the role and sends you a first reply by email within three days on average.

  3. Video interview

    A conversation to get to know each other and shape the assignment together.

  4. Decision and arrival

    You receive our answer by email, followed by a welcome to the team and access to its tools.
