Office Administration Volunteer

Volunteers are integral to the running of our beautiful WWT Arundel Wetland Centre, an award-winning site for accessible and inclusive tourism. Our volunteer team is friendly, motivated, and hard-working, and benefit from gaining new experiences, meeting new people, and making a difference by helping maintain our important wetland habitat.

In this role, you’ll be supporting our Marketing, Learning, and Facilities teams to stay on top of day-to-day essentials and keep organized behind the scenes. Responsibilities will include compiling the information we use to inspire visitors to support wetlands, responding quickly to supporter queries, and helping to provide information online to encourage visitors to support us and connect with nature.

If you enjoy an office environment where you can focus on detailed work, self-led tasks, and computer databases, then this is the role for you! Alongside this, you will have the opportunity to meet new like-minded colleagues and enjoy our beautiful outdoor reserve.

Volunteers are an essential part of the WWT team, and we wouldn’t be able to maintain our internationally important wetland sites without their help. You will receive a very warm welcome, full induction & training, and be provided with any necessary equipment, uniforms, and anything else needed to thrive in your role.

No previous experience is required for this role as full training will be provided, and a willingness to learn new skills is more important.

This role would suit you if:

You would enjoy a behind-the-scenes role working in a busy office

You are highly organised and have good attention to detail

You enjoy working as part of a team of staff and volunteers

You can work independently using your own initiative and are self-motivated

You have an interest in and enthusiasm for the work of WWT

You have excellent written and verbal communication skills

You are IT-literate and have a good working knowledge of using Microsoft Office and Microsoft Teams

This role is not suitable for people under 18 years

We are looking for volunteers to help out one day a fortnight for 3 hours

We are WWT, and we’re on a mission to restore the super-powered ecosystems we call wetlands. There’s never been a more important moment for our work, and we’ve got some phenomenal people on the case.

Whether you’re looking to meet new people, learn new skills or spend time in our wildlife-rich wetlands, there’s a volunteer role for you. Just a few hours spent volunteering can really make a world of difference to our wildlife, and to you.

So, come surround yourself with the wonder of wetlands, and the people who inject their energy and passion into them. Whatever you do here, you’ll be helping to restore wetlands and unlock their power. The only question left is, what role will you play?
