Volunteer Networking information

What is volunteer networking?

Volunteer networking refers to the process of connecting with other volunteers, organizations, and community members to share opportunities, resources, and experiences. It helps individuals find volunteer positions that match their interests and skills, while also allowing organizations to recruit passionate and qualified volunteers. Effective volunteer networking can lead to increased collaboration, support for community projects, and personal growth for volunteers.

How do professionals in volunteer networking typically collaborate with nonprofit organizations and community partners?

Professionals in Volunteer Networking often serve as liaisons between volunteers and nonprofit organizations, working closely with both to identify needs, coordinate events, and ensure successful partnerships. They regularly communicate with community partners to understand project requirements and match suitable volunteers. Collaboration often involves organizing joint meetings, providing training sessions, and facilitating feedback to ensure all stakeholders are aligned and goals are met. This teamwork is essential for creating meaningful volunteer experiences and maximizing community impact.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a volunteer networking coordinator, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Volunteer Networking Coordinator, you need strong organizational skills, experience in volunteer management, and a background in community engagement or nonprofit work. Familiarity with volunteer management software, CRM systems, and digital communication tools is typically required. Excellent interpersonal skills, empathy, and the ability to motivate and connect diverse groups are crucial soft skills. These competencies ensure effective recruitment, retention, and coordination of volunteers, enhancing the overall impact and reach of organizational initiatives.

Required SkillsCommunication, networking, social media, community engagement
Work EnvironmentCommunity events, online platforms, nonprofit organizations

Volunteer Networking primarily involves creating connections between volunteers and organizations, focusing on outreach and community engagement. In contrast, a Volunteer Coordinator manages volunteer programs, recruits volunteers, and oversees their activities. While both roles require strong communication skills, Volunteer Networking emphasizes relationship building and outreach, whereas Volunteer Coordinators handle program logistics and volunteer management.

Job description

Women's Community Program Facilitator

Fixed Term (Until Mar 31, 2028), Full-Time | Hybrid - Edmonton

Bona-fide Occupational Requirement (BFOR): Must be a woman, femme, or female-identified due to the gender-specific and culturally responsive nature of the programming.

We thank all applicants for their interest. Only those selected for an interview will be contacted.


About the Role

The Women's Community Program Facilitator supports the planning, coordination, and facilitation of the Immigrant Women's Integration Network (I-WIN), a participant-led, community-driven program for newcomer women.
This role blends direct group facilitation with program planning, coordination, and partner engagement to ensure consistent, high-quality, participant-centred programming. Working closely with Program Support Workers, facilitators, and community partners, the Specialist helps shape the flow and rhythm of cohorts and drop-in programming and supports a strong, welcoming participant experience.
Hybrid in this role refers to a combination of on-site service delivery and community-based work (e.g., employer visits, workshops, outreach, and client meetings). This is not a work-from-home position. Remote work occurs only occasionally, based on program needs.


About the I-WIN Program

The Immigrant Women's Integration Network (I-WIN) supports newcomer women to build community, access information, and strengthen social connection through group-based programming and peer learning.
I-WIN is grounded in participant voice, cultural humility, and trauma-informed practice. Programming is flexible and responsive, shaped by lived experience rather than fixed curricula, and focused on building trust, belonging, and leadership.


What You'll Do

  • Facilitate I-WIN cohort sessions and weekly drop-in programming using trauma-informed and culturally responsive approaches.
  • Create welcoming spaces that support participation, connection, and peer learning.
  • Adapt session content, pacing, and facilitation approaches in response to participant priorities and group dynamics.
  • Support Program Support Workers and volunteers during session delivery.
  • Plan and maintain cohort schedules, facilitation plans, and session flow.
  • Coordinate session logistics, materials, and supplies.
  • Lead planning huddles and post-session debriefs to support preparation and continuous improvement.
  • Coordinate external facilitators, presenters, and community partners.
  • Orient facilitators to program context, participant needs, and session expectations.
  • Maintain accurate documentation, session records, and planning tools.
  • Identify emerging themes and contribute to reporting, reflections, and success stories.
  • Collaborate with the Community Programs team and apply organizational policies and service standards.


What It Takes

  • Strong group facilitation skills rooted in trauma-informed and culturally responsive practice.
  • A community-development approach that values participant voice and shared leadership.
  • Comfort working flexibly without rigid scripts or fixed outcomes.
  • Strong organization, planning, and follow-through.
  • Ability to lead through collaboration without formal authority.
  • Clear, respectful communication and professional judgment.
  • Adaptability, curiosity, and comfort with ambiguity.
  • Integrity, accountability, and respect for confidentiality.


What You Bring

  • At least two (2) years of experience working with immigrant or refugee communities, particularly women.
  • Minimum of 2 years of experience planning, and facilitating programs in a non-profit or community-based setting.
  • Demonstrated experience facilitating groups, workshops, or community-based programming.
  • Strong organizational and coordination skills in people-centered environments.
  • Understanding of trauma-informed, equity-informed, and culturally responsive practice.
  • Post-secondary education in community development, public health, social sciences, education, or a related field is an asset.
  • Experience coordinating volunteers, facilitators, or community partners.
  • A clear Police Information Check (PIC), required as a condition of employment.
