Volunteer Coordinator

Duties include recruiting, interviewing, supervising and training volunteers. Coordinators schedule volunteers for ongoing tasks as well as for staffing events, as well as organizing and promoting events. The volunteer coordinator is responsible for tracking volunteer hours and managing award programs. Since volunteers are not paid, tracking a volunteer’s time with the organization is important, and allows the organization to recognize the person with certificates or other mementos. This plays an important role in recruiting and retaining good volunteers. Other volunteer coordinator duties and responsibilities include: Periodic evaluation of volunteers. Planning and organizing events, including site selection, logistical arrangements, purchasing supplies, promoting events, scheduling and being the primary point of contact for the event. Fundraising. Community outreach activities. Managing the volunteer database. Other administrative and management duties as assigned.
