Responsibilities:

As the Project Manager, your role isn't just about ticking boxes and tracking progress-it's about creating an environment where every volunteer feels valued, heard, and motivated.

Communication will be your strong suit. With regular check-ins, you'll ensure every team member is aligned with our goals, has clarity on their tasks, and feels part of our shared mission. You'll be there to celebrate the milestones, but also to navigate the challenges, ensuring that setbacks are turned into learning experiences.

Making informed decisions under pressure will be key, ensuring the project stays on track. Yet, you'll always maintain a balance between adhering to the plan and being adaptive when needed. You'll identify risks, but more than that, you'll devise strategies to address issues in ways that respect and consider the diverse perspectives within our volunteer team.

Your leadership will ensure the efficient use of our collective skills and resources, but, more importantly, you'll foster a culture where every individual feels a sense of belonging and purpose.

• Experience: Proven track record managing software or CRM projects.

• Empathy & Interpersonal Skills: the ability to connect with team members and stakeholders, understanding their needs, challenges, and motivations.

• Decision-Making: Demonstrated aptitude for making well-informed, effective, and timely decisions, even in the face of challenges.

• Adaptability: Thrive in a dynamic environment, swiftly adjusting to changes and new information.

• Leadership: inspire, motivate, and guide a team towards achieving project objectives.
