Volunteer opportunities with InValencia
Event Organiser
Being an event organiser is a wonderful way to meet new people from all over the world! We are looking for friendly, outgoing people who speak English and at least a little bit of Spanish. Events we organise include language exchanges, pool tournaments, international meetups and beach parties. Currently this position is voluntary, although you’ll be receiving free drinks for your time. If you’re a good fit there’s the possibility of this becoming a paid position in the future.
Online Promoter
As an Online Promoter you will be in charge of promoting our events and partners through social media. An in-depth knowledge of Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and other platforms will be useful. We also have a variety of WhatsApp groups that need moderators. This is a great way to get to know the international community in Valencia and an opportunity to gain valuable experience in online promotion. Currently, this is a volunteer position with the possibility of a paid position at a later date.
Content Writer
At International Valencia, we are constantly providing free articles and guides for the community. We’re looking for a Content Writer with a good level of English or Spanish who can write clear, concise articles on a wide variety of topics. Knowledge of Valencia is important, but we also offer more general articles on life in Spain and common expat dilemmas. If you’re passionate about Valencian life or just want to help the community this is the perfect opportunity for you! Although this is currently a volunteer position, writers will be credited and will be considered for any future paid positions.
What We Offer
Valuable Experience
Gain experience in a variety of roles! Joining the International Valencia team is a good way to test the waters, whether you’re interested in getting into event management, online promotions or other fields of work. We’ll give you all the help and support you need in your role, and if you decide to move on you can expect a good reference to put on your CV.
Support
Setting up events by yourself can be difficult. Building up a network of potential participants takes time and energy – thankfully, you don’t need to worry about that! With International Valencia you’ll have access to a vast network of expats, locals, Erasmus students and travellers from around the world. In addition you’ll receive help and guidance from experienced event coordinators, promoters and writers. If you choose to work with us you’ll be part of a team, but you will have autonomy to create your own events or content in our name. We welcome creative individuals with lots of unique ideas!
Networking
Whether you’re new to Valencia or have lived here for years, working with International Valencia is a great way to meet new people from all over the world. You’ll have the opportunity to make some valuable contacts which could open doors in a variety of careers, and if you’re working as an event organiser you will be engaging with people from different countries on a weekly basis. When living abroad making the right connections can be vital to living a full and enjoyable life.
Careers
Volunteering with us is a great way to get your foot in the door for any future career opportunites. Although, at present, all positions are voluntary, we plan to expand rapidly and create paid positions. As a volunteer, you will be considered favourably for any future openings. In addition, due to the nature of our events we will be able to offer deals with venues to ensure that event managers are at least given free drinks or some form of compensation for their time.
