    Description

    We’re a new organization growing fast and juggling many moving parts. We need a reliable, detail-oriented person who can help us stay organized, track progress across several projects, and keep communication flowing. This is less about paperwork and more about coordination—following up, creating structure, and making sure good ideas actually get finished.

    What you’ll do

    • Organize and track multiple volunteer projects using Google Sheets or other simple tools
    • Maintain lists of who’s doing what and follow up to keep tasks moving
    • Schedule and document short check-ins or updates
    • Create simple systems so information doesn’t get lost
    • Communicate regularly with the founder or team lead and summarize what’s happening
    • Help onboard new volunteers and keep everyone connected

    Who you are

    • Comfortable managing several projects at once
    • Excellent at written communication and follow-up
    • Confident using Google Drive, Sheets, Docs, and shared folders
    • Dependable, self-directed, and willing to learn new tools
    • Experience in project coordination, operations, or admin support is helpful but not required

    Commitment

    • Remote volunteer role
    • Roughly 20–30 hours per week for the first month while we get systems built, then likely 5–10 hours per week
    • Flexible schedule as long as progress stays consistent
    • Communication by email, shared documents, and quick calls or Zooms

    Why this matters

    • You’ll be the person who helps a young organization move from ideas to action
    • Gain hands-on experience in operations and leadership
    • Work closely with a small, fast-moving team and see immediate results from your work
