Job description

Placement Volunteers at the British Red Cross are highly valued for the skills and energy they bring. We aim to provide our placement volunteers with an insight into the daily workings of the world’s largest humanitarian organisation. They will have access to relevant in-house training and development opportunities during their placement with possible ad hoc opportunities to get involved in other areas of activity.

The British Red Cross is a volunteer-led humanitarian organisation that helps people in crisis, whoever and wherever they are. We enable vulnerable people at home and overseas to prepare for and respond to emergencies in their own communities. And when the crisis is over, we help people recover and move on with their lives.

The expected start date for the placement will be July 2025 and the placement will run for 6 weeks, daytimes 10am to 4pm, volunteering upto 3 days per week.

The placement will be hybrid in location, from the volunteer's home and the British Red Cross office in Moorgate, London (EC2Y 9AL).

About the role: Up and down the country, groups of passionate students are running British Red Cross on Campus supporter groups, acting as fundraisers, advocates and taking part in our calls to action. We have groups in sixth form colleges, further education establishments, youth organisations and universities. You can set up your own group and make a real difference, gain valuable skills and get recognised for your volunteering. We are looking for someone to support the development of our resources and calls to action.

Typical placements tasks may include:

  • Researching other charities On Campus offers
  • Reviewing our packs and resources for setting up and running a group
  • Reviewing and creating new calls to action
  • Coming up with a year plan for On Campus

You need to have good interpersonal, diplomacy, communication and teamwork skills although full training can be given for any technical requirements. We keep the beneficiary at the heart of what we do, working to understand their needs and the difference we make.

Also someone who has:

  • Good research skills
  • Good written communication skills

Whether you’re student, a recent graduate or someone with more experience looking for a career change, we would be happy to hear from you. Anyone can volunteer with the Red Cross from the age of 15. An individual risk assessment, parental consent and safeguarding considerations will be required for those aged 15 – 17. The nature of the activities specific to your intern opportunity may mean that you need to be 18 years or older.
