Volunteer & Fellowship Engagement Fellow

The opportunity

GFC's Volunteer & Fellowship Engagement Program supports the people who contribute their time to the organization. This Fellow may help create a clear, welcoming participant experience through onboarding, orientation, contributor coordination, check-ins, and internal support.

What you'll work on

• Support Fellow and volunteer onboarding, orientation, and recurring check-ins
• Maintain internal guides, onboarding materials, and contributor references
• Help coordinate assignments, communication, and follow-up among contributors
• Gather participant feedback and identify ways to improve the Fellow and volunteer experience

Example projects

Depending on current GFC priorities, examples could include:

• Refining an orientation guide or onboarding checklist for new contributors
• Supporting a recurring Fellow or volunteer check-in rhythm
• Organizing participant feedback and recommendations for improving the contributor experience

What we're looking for

A dependable, relatively independent contributor who is organized, personable, and discreet when supporting other contributors. Strong communication, judgment, follow-through, and willingness to learn matter more than a specific credential.

What you'll learn

You'll have opportunities to gain experience with Fellow and volunteer onboarding, orientation materials, contributor coordination, check-ins, internal guidance, and participant-experience improvement.
