VSO is the world’s leading international development organisation that works

our unique role in international development is to place committed volunteers
with carefully selected organisations where their skills can have the greatest
impact. As a VSO volunteer you’ll live and work in some of the world’s poorest
communities. By sharing your unique skills and experience you’ll help generate
new ideas and new ways of doing things, helping the communities you work in
lift themselves out of poverty. We’re not about delivering quick fixes, but
instead we focus on long-lasting, sustainable change, that will impact
generations to come. Join us as a VSO volunteer and help us work towards our
vision of a world without poverty.

responsible for checking data is acquired as to the research and ethical
protocols, entering data into an excel spreadsheet, carrying out structured
observations, analysing field notes and trends and analysing for both impact
and process evaluations using SPSS. They will also be responsible for
reporting and disseminating report findings.
## Skills, qualifications and experience

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
• Ability to facilitate positive change and build sustainable working
relationships
• Ability to seek and share knowledge
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.
Your application and COVID-19
We are continually reviewing our ability to safely programme and implement
projects during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many local restrictions are being
implemented in several VSO locations, which impacts VSO’s existing programme
delivery.
We will continue to follow the advice of the World Health Organisation (WHO)
and national governments to protect the wellbeing and safety of all
communities, employees and volunteers.
We’re continuing to build a talent pool of prospective professional volunteers
so we can get back to supporting communities as soon as we’re able to.
If your application is shortlisted, a VSO hiring manager will be in touch to
discuss the next steps and any changes to your placement and role.
