Volunteer (care) professionals for @ease

We are looking for professionals for @ease

At an @ease location, young volunteers and experienced professionals work alongside professionals from social work and healthcare. Our volunteers conduct conversations with the young people who come in for a listening ear.

As a professional, you have a coaching role during opening hours of the @ease location, you provide advice and you intervene in a conversation when the situation requires it.

Does this role suit you as a professional? And do you want to volunteer or work with young people through your current employer? Then we're looking for you if you:

• you are (or have been) an experienced professional in healthcare or social care;

• are willing to supervise volunteers at our location;

• are stress resistant;

• are enthusiastic with good communication skills;

• have an affinity for coaching young employees;

• you can provide a Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG) (@ease requests this VOG)

for you);

• are willing to work according to the @ease values and

eg you can let go of your own beliefs

to help young people in what they want;

• you are available for at least 3.5 hours per month (1 shift)

of approximately 3.5 hours) on Mondays between 1:30 PM and 5:00 PM.

We offer you:

• a fun and friendly (!) team of volunteers and professionals from different organizations to work with;

• training in the @ease concept and the associated conversation techniques;

• a workplace where there is plenty of room for your experience as a professional, ideas and initiative;

• volunteer work where you can really make a difference for young people.

About @ease:

At @ease, young people between the ages of 12 and 25 can drop in without obligation to talk about their concerns. Topics of conversation can be very diverse: heartbreak, drug use, divorce, bullying, eating habits, study stress, depression, debt, etc. No matter how big or small the personal questions are: at @ease they can talk about them.

Talk. Anonymously and free! A trained team of enthusiastic young volunteers and professionals is ready to respond effectively to people's concerns and, if needed, can quickly help someone find the right care outside @ease.

At @ease, we believe no young person should be left alone when life isn't going well. And we could really use your help!
