# Job Description


VSO is the world’s leading international development charity that works
through volunteers to create a fair world for everyone. At VSO we pride
ourselves on doing development differently. We fight poverty not by sending
aid, but by working through volunteers and partners to create long-lasting
change in some of the world’s poorest regions. We bring key stakeholders
together to co-ordinate collective action, from local organisations to
national governments. Our programmes in Africa and Asia focus on health,
education and livelihoods, with an increasing emphasis on resilience, peace
building, social accountability, gender and social inclusion. We’re not about
delivering quick fixes, but instead we focus on long-lasting, sustainable
change that will improve the lives of generations to come.

Skills, qualifications and experience

Competencies and Behaviour

At VSO we believe progress is only possible by working together. Whether you
want to join us as an employee, or as a volunteer working in your own country,
overseas or online, our selection process includes an assessment based on
these core competencies

• Ability to be open minded and respectful
• Ability to be resilient and adaptive to new situations

Equal Opportunities

VSO promotes equal opportunities and values a diverse workforce.

Allowance

As a VSO volunteer, you will be sharing your skills with local communities on
a full time basis. VSO will cover your travel, vaccinations, accommodation,
and medical insurance costs, along with a local living allowance which will be
paid in local currency. This allowance meets reasonable living expenses in
country, but will not be enough to send money home. You will also receive some
financial support to contribute to your on-going expenses at home.

Accommodation

VSO works with some of the poorest communities in the world which means
accommodation varies and will be basic.

Some background about VSO

Much has changed since VSO started 60 years ago. We’ve gone from being a UK
charity to a truly global development organisation. In 2016/2017 alone, we
worked with over 7,000 volunteers from all over the world and from all
backgrounds to deliver services that had an impact on the lives of almost 2.6
million people in the 24 countries where we work. Our programmes focus on the
areas of health, education and livelihoods, with an increasing emphasis on
resilience building, social accountability, gender and social inclusion. We
believe progress is only possible when we work together and that strong
partnerships are crucial to delivering positive change. That’s why we work
with over 500 partner organisations, from local and national governments, to
businesses, NGOs, funders, charities and community groups. Currently, over 30%
of our people are recruited from within the country in which they work, and we
continue to grow the share of community and national volunteers involved in
our programmes. We also send increasing numbers of volunteers from one
developing country to another. However, our vision has remained the same; to
build a world without poverty.
