The AmeriCorps Volunteer Coordinator activates local community members to get involved and make an impact in their community by volunteering with Rebuilding Together. The AmeriCorps Volunteer Coordinator will engage both skilled-trades and unskilled volunteers to build our capacity through a number of opportunities, including hand-on repair work, warehouse management, client education in healthy housing or home maintenance, and to serve in special roles on rebuilding days (ex: safety captains, supplies/materials runners, photographers). The AmeriCorps Volunteer Coordinator will ensure volunteers receive a proper orientation to Rebuilding Together's work, and are placed with appropriate rebuilding projects based on skill/experience. The AmeriCorps Volunteer Coordinator will implement project evaluations to continuously improve the quality of volunteer experiences, as well as show our appreciation to volunteers for their service to our clients.
Essential Duties & Responsibilities:

- Support general volunteers in completing direct hands-on repairs. Ensure that volunteers are trained in their task and have access to tools/materials, that proper safety procedures are being followed, that the work product is of good quality, and that volunteers enjoy and feel appreciated for their service.

- Create continuous and sustainable engagement through a variety of media (social media, newsletter, and volunteer search engines, as well as brochures, flyers, and other printed materials). Contribute volunteer-focused content to tell the stories of our homeowners and the impact our volunteers and partners have had on their homes and lives.
- As a grassroots non-profit, all team members will have an active role in implementing larger rebuilding projects throughout the year. They will assist with project logistics several times throughout the year, including registering volunteers, checking in with volunteers throughout the project day, coordinating volunteer logistics such as lunches and bathrooms, assisting with set up/tear down, or taking photos.
