About Orange Sky
At Orange Sky, we are on a mission to positively connect communities by providing the world's first free mobile laundry and shower service to people experiencing homelessness. We offer a platform for everyday New Zealanders to connect by creating a safe, positive, and supportive environment for people who are too often ignored or feel disconnected from the community.
The Role
Our aim is to increase our impact and connect more friends – striving to improve is in our DNA at Orange Sky. We are searching for a Regional Impact Support Officer in Christchurch or Auckland who will work with the Regional Coordinator and the Local Leadership team to execute growth plans for an existing service and, in some cases, a region, and to provide rollout support for a brand new service (if required).
This casual role will work as required, approximately 20 hours per month (averaging 5 hours per week). This role will work with other members of the Orange Sky team both locally and nationally to support delivering the Orange Sky mission, vision, and values.
Primary Tasks:
Research and locate potential new shift locations and service provider partners.
Build and maintain relationships with local service providers and councils.
Perform and/or facilitate inspections and risk assessments for new shift locations.
Coordinate with volunteers for trial shifts as needed.
Provide first shift training for volunteers.
Support with volunteer recruitment activities as required.
Attend regular online or in-person meetings with the Impact team at HQ.
At all times, embrace and promote Orange Sky's culture of ensuring safe and supportive service environments.
Other ad hoc tasks allocated by the Senior Impact Manager.
To be successful at Orange Sky, you need a genuine passion for our cause. We're looking for someone who genuinely loves delighting customers (or in Orange Sky's case – our incredible volunteer base, and our friends on the street) and understands how to deliver high-quality support and value to our services.
Additionally, the ideal applicant has:
Confidence in learning new technologies or platforms (training will be provided).
Willingness to give things a crack.
Relationship management skills.
Understanding of Orange Sky and how we operate is highly regarded.
Knowledge of social services providing services to communities experiencing homelessness and hardship in the local area is a plus.
Benefits
At Orange Sky, we want every person to be "Better for Being Orange". This includes every one of our volunteers, friends, and supporters, all while working together towards delivering our mission. As part of the Orange Sky team, you are no exception. You not only get to work with an outstanding bunch of high-performing people, but you're supported to continue your own personal growth and development in an inclusive and flexible environment, with benefits including:
Attractive and fair remuneration package based on industry benchmarking.
Flexible approach to work.
We are committed to facilitating a barrier-free recruitment process and work environment. If you require any accommodations, we welcome you to let us know so we can work with you to participate fully in our recruitment experience.
