Volunteer

Help us grow Montagne Verte and spread the word

Why volunteer for Montagne Verte?

As a volunteer led association, we rely on the efforts of highly motivated individuals. If you are interested in volunteering with us, please fill out the information form below or take a look at the current volunteer vacancies and if one appeals to you, contact us directly. 

We are a small team and sometimes there are no extra roles available for extended periods of time. If you don’t hear from us right away, it’s nothing personal!

CURRENT VOLUNTEER VACANCIES

If you’re interested in any of the below, please send an email titled “Volunteer” to cecile@montagneverte.org with a short covering letter explaining your motivations and some examples of your relevant experience.

Carpenter

One off project

If you have some woodworking skills, your own tools and enjoy upcycling, you’ll enjoy this project! We would like to build a new display to be used outside our friperie and at events and need someone skilled to bring it to life.

Translators

Ad hoc

Running an organisation in 2 languages can be a challenge and we want to avoid mistakes. We’re in need of translators of both languages who can help with newsletters, blogs and social media content. You will be part of a small group of translators who split the upcoming projects between them.

Community Manager (Social Media)

Regular

Do you understand the algorithm and enjoy the changing pace of social media? We’d love to have your input! We’re looking for someone who can contribute 2 hrs a week to help bring more consistency to our communications.

Web Developer

One off project

We need to design a simple interface for transactions in our friperie that links to a Google Sheets spreadsheet. This will help make the selling/buying experience a lot smoother, as well as our accounts. Click here for a more detailed brief of the project.

Bloggers

Ad hoc

Are you interested in sustainable living? Do you want to encourage other people to live the same way? Why not write a blog about it! We want to share our platform with anyone who’s interested in writing about sustainability. Either choose a subject that’s already close to your heart, or pick from one of our suggested topics and get stuck into some research.

CRM Integration Support

One off project

We use several online platforms for our website, newsletter and donations and we would love some help making sure they are all synced up correctly! Ideally you are familiar with Mailchimp and WordPress. A knowledge of HelloAsso is a plus.

Friperie

Ad hoc / Regular

We always need extra hands at our friperie, whether it’s sorting and fixing donations, helping customers or even just taking a bag of laundry and doing a wash at home. Pop in and speak to Chrissy at 162 Rue du Bourg to discuss how you can help.

If you have a particular skill or way of helping that isn’t listed but you would like to suggest, send us an email.
