Citizens Advice Eastbourne have an exciting new opportunity where we are looking for an outgoing and proactive volunteer to help promote volunteering to the wider community and attract new recruits.
What will you do?
Promote the local Citizens Advice service so that the people understand what Citizens Advice does, what volunteer roles are available and how to become a volunteer.
Aim to attract/reach potential volunteers from minority groups.
Create leaflets and posters to promote the service, or use existing materials to promote the local Citizens Advice to people at community events, colleges/universities, local companies, groups (disability, social, charity, religious), volunteering fairs, etc.
Lead on promoting volunteering using things like local press, radio, social media (e.g. Facebook and Twitter), local Citizens Advice website and newsletter to raise the profile of the local Citizens Advice and volunteering opportunities.
What do you need to have?
You don’t need specific qualifications or skills but you’ll need to be friendly, approachable, and outgoing.
Respect views, values, and cultures that are different from your own.
Have excellent verbal and written communication skills.
Have good IT skills.
Have a really positive attitude towards volunteering.
Be willing to learn about and follow the Citizens Advice aims, principles, and policies, including confidentiality and data protection.
Be willing to undertake training in your role; experience of public speaking, recruiting, and/or social media promotion preferred but not essential.
How much time do you need to give?
We can be flexible about the time spent and how often you volunteer, so come and talk to us.
