JOB VACANCIES WITH US
Travellers Worldwide is a UK organization,
established in 1994, and is a Founder Member of the Year Out Group.
We work with nearly 300 projects, in mostly developing countries around the
world. We offer help and assistance through providing projects with
volunteers, funds and support. Travellers Volunteers fill a wide variety of
roles including that of teacher, coach, carer, nurse, researcher, builder
and conservationist and so on. Volunteers are provided with guidance,
instruction and support to enable them to experience, with confidence, what
it means to make a valued and lasting contribution to the projects and
communities in which they work.
Travellers Worldwide is
widely recognized as a leader in providing worthwhile voluntary placements
overseas, and adheres to an ethical code of practice that recognizes the
importance of our corporate & social responsibilities, the impact on the
communities in which we work, and of the need to Travel Responsibly. Through
the help and support of our volunteers, Travellers Worldwide makes a much
needed and long-lasting difference to the projects and communities in which
we work.
Travellers staff members
are dedicated to their work – most are ex Travellers Volunteers and
understand what it means to volunteer. Many are also highly experienced
travellers in their own right - their advice and expertise is invaluable in
arranging and tailoring voluntary placements.
If you would like to help
others to undertake valuable voluntary work overseas – or you have an
interest in working in the voluntary sector, international development, or
charity work - then we would love to hear from you. |
