As an Active Member you will coordinate one or two of our projects, which means that you will be in the lead of the communication between our partners and us and therefore able to gain insights in the international project organization. By supporting and guiding the Volunteers before, during and after the project, you will make sure that they are well informed and able to fulfill their tasks. - Do you want to be in charge of the coordination of one of our amazing projects all over the world? Are you a communicative, independent, reliable person who takes initiative and has good English Skills (if you know any other language of our project destinations it will be a plus)? Then apply to become one of the five Active Members in the Project Department!

Education

The Education Department creates the teaching material, which is distributed to the volunteers during the projects. As PIECES is active in different areas and as the ages of participants vary, it is crucial to adapt to the given circumstances and to create suitable and professional teaching material. By meeting previous volunteers and talking about their teaching experiences, you get unique insights, which help you to create the materials according to the project conditions. Your tasks will consist of the expansion of the PIECES Teaching Booklet. Furthermore, you will help organising the bi-annual Boot Camp. You should be interested in the education sector and preferably have gained teaching experience in the past. You should also be able to think creatively and come up with new ideas. Good collaboration and teamwork skills are necessary to work professionally. The Education Department is looking for three to four new members.

Events

The Events Department is responsible for the creation and organization of fun events that bring people together, raise awareness and money for our projects abroad. By joining our team, you are able to put your ideas into practice and to organise your own social gatherings, such as our famous BP-Tournaments, Bake Sales, Tombola, and other activities. You will experience great teamwork, as you will also organize internal events (Team Building Days) and gain communication skills, take over responsibility and get to know many new people. You should be a driven, extroverted person with good teamwork skills, have a flair for attracting a crowd and of course be good at scheduling.

Marketing
​

The Marketing Department aims at increasing PIECES’ reputation by reaching out to our target group on social media, within the university through flyers, posters and info booths. You will create flyers and videos for promotional purposes and you will take pictures during events. By coming up with new ideas to do marketing you will gain professional experience in content creation and social media management. You are a good fit in case you have a creative mind, you write flawlessly in English and/or German and you have a clever and intriguing way of expressing yourself. The ability to work in a team as well as being able to take initiatives on your own is crucial. The department will consist of four members. 

Sponsoring


The Sponsoring Department is responsible for raising funds and awareness for PIECES' volunteering projects. By contacting (potential) sponsors such as companies, foundations and service clubs, you will gain experience in how to communicate in a professional way. You get creative by coming up with new ideas to raise money and will probably organize workshops and speakers for an event in the spring semester. The perfect candidate is either fluent (in German or French) driven, outgoing and good at networking, while being keen on making a good impression.

Finance


​By joining PIECES as head of Finance, you will be in charge of preparing all the relevant finances such as; budgets, year end reports, account statements, etc. You will work closely together with the Sponsoring department to achieve our financial goals. The ideal person for this positon is someone with high affinity with numbers and proficient excel skills. Moreover, you are someone that can work in a structured and organized manner, and you pay a lot of attention to detail.
