About Orange Sky

At Orange sky we are on a mission to Positively Connect Communities and we do this by providing the world's-first free mobile laundry and shower service to people experiencing homelessness. We offer a platform for everyday Australians to connect by creating a safe, positive and supportive environment for people who are too often ignored or who feel disconnected from the community.

In one sentence-we are looking for you to create a ‘wow’ factor in every part of our volunteering program. You will ensure proactive initiatives are in place for volunteer attraction, retention and development, whilst engaging more broadly across the operations department and interfacing with other Orange Sky Australia (OS) departments.

• Working in an on call weekend Service Support capacity to address service delivery needs across Australia
• End to end design of the volunteer lifecycle, developing volunteer retention and recognitions programs that drive a strong shift culture
• Identifying and dreaming up solutions to pain points to ensure a positive volunteering experience
• Thinking outside the box to create ‘wow’ moments at key points in the volunteering journey.
• Develop volunteer retention & recognition programs in conjunction with other operations team members and volunteer leaders.
• Develop resources to support the Operations team manage volunteer human resource matters (e.g. exiting, performance management) in conjunction with OS subject matter experts and other departments (i.e. People and Engagement)
• Ensure volunteer documents and resources equip volunteers to effectively fulfil their roles
• Work collaboratively to deliver the volunteer training & development program
• Collaborating with the Marketing, Fundraising and Partnerships teams to develop and deliver volunteer facing campaigns and communications
