The Australian Youth Climate Coalition
Power Shift National Logistics Volunteer

TIME COMMITMENT:
8:00am-6:00pm 13/10/2011-16/10/2011
POSITIOSN AVALIABLE: 20
LOCATION: Brisbane

RESPONSIBLE TO: Emily Murray (National Logistics Manager)
Applications are due on Sunday 11 September 2011.

ABOUT THE AYCC AND THE POSITION
Established in early 2007, The Australian Youth Climate Coalition (www.aycc.org.au) unites over 60,000 young Australians and all major Australian youth organisations to build a generation wide movement to solve climate change. We educate, empower, inspire andmobilise young Australians to solve climate change, through short-term political impact and long-term cultural change.
In 2011 Power Shift will be held in Brisbane and Perth, for two inspirational, empowering conferences. Each Power Shift  conference will be a three-day event, with high profile keynote addresses from Australia's foremost climate change campaigners, interactive workshops and skills training, media stunts, social events and grassroots movement building!
Power Shift, like the AYCC, is based upon the passion and dedication of volunteers. We are looking for twenty  outstanding young people to help the National Logistics Manager to make Power Shift a reality.

RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Prepare the Power Shift venue with AYCC banners, arrows and room signs
  • Manage the participant registration desk
  • Organise conference materials
  • Answer participants questions during Power Shift
  • Collect special guests from the airport
  • Report problems or unusual activities to the Logistics Volunteer Manager

SKILLS

Logistics Volunteers are the face of the AYCC. They are the first point of contact for participants and special guests alike, so they must have a pleasant, confident manner and enjoy meeting new people. Logistics Volunteers will need to be capable of working unsupervised. We're looking for people who enjoy taking the initiative to fix problems and help
the people around them. A current drivers license is also highly desirable. Previous experience working with  non-governmental organisations would be advantageous, however, we recognise that the best people may have no formal experience but are quick learners.

APPLICATION PROCESS
Please send a short resume (2 pages max) and a one paragraph explanation of why you would be suitable for the position to Emily Murray, National Logistics Manager at Emily.Murray@youthclimatecoalition.org. If you have any questions about the role, please email them to Emily Murray.

People wishing to apply for a Welfare Volunteer position are also encouraged to apply for an Accomodation Volunteer position, as the positions require similar skills and applicants are likely to be suited for both roles.

The Australian Youth Climate Coalition
Power Shift National Logistics Volunteer

TIME COMMITMENT:
8:00am-6:00pm 13/10/2011-16/10/2011
POSITIOSN AVALIABLE: 20
LOCATION: Brisbane

RESPONSIBLE TO: Emily Murray (National Logistics Manager)
Applications are due on Sunday 11 September 2011.

ABOUT THE AYCC AND THE POSITION
Established in early 2007, The Australian Youth Climate Coalition (www.aycc.org.au) unites over 60,000 young Australians and all major Australian youth organisations to build a generation wide movement to solve climate change. We educate, empower, inspire andmobilise young Australians to solve climate change, through short-term political impact and long-term cultural change.
In 2011 Power Shift will be held in Brisbane and Perth, for two inspirational, empowering conferences. Each Power Shift  conference will be a three-day event, with high profile keynote addresses from Australia's foremost climate change campaigners, interactive workshops and skills training, media stunts, social events and grassroots movement building!
Power Shift, like the AYCC, is based upon the passion and dedication of volunteers. We are looking for twenty  outstanding young people to help the National Logistics Manager to make Power Shift a reality.

RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Prepare the Power Shift venue with AYCC banners, arrows and room signs
  • Manage the participant registration desk
  • Organise conference materials
  • Answer participants questions during Power Shift
  • Collect special guests from the airport
  • Report problems or unusual activities to the Logistics Volunteer Manager

SKILLS

Logistics Volunteers are the face of the AYCC. They are the first point of contact for participants and special guests alike, so they must have a pleasant, confident manner and enjoy meeting new people. Logistics Volunteers will need to be capable of working unsupervised. We're looking for people who enjoy taking the initiative to fix problems and help
the people around them. A current drivers license is also highly desirable. Previous experience working with  non-governmental organisations would be advantageous, however, we recognise that the best people may have no formal experience but are quick learners.

APPLICATION PROCESS
Please send a short resume (2 pages max) and a one paragraph explanation of why you would be suitable for the position to Emily Murray, National Logistics Manager at Emily.Murray@youthclimatecoalition.org. If you have any questions about the role, please email them to Emily Murray.

People wishing to apply for a Welfare Volunteer position are also encouraged to apply for an Accomodation Volunteer position, as the positions require similar skills and applicants are likely to be suited for both roles.

ABOUT THE AYCC AND THE POSITION
Established in early 2007, The Australian Youth Climate Coalition (www.aycc.org.au) unites over 60,000 young Australians and all major Australian youth organisations to build a generation wide movement to solve climate change. We educate, empower, inspire andmobilise young Australians to solve climate change, through short-term political impact and long-term cultural change.
In 2011 Power Shift will be held in Brisbane and Perth, for two inspirational, empowering conferences. Each Power Shift  conference will be a three-day event, with high profile keynote addresses from Australia's foremost climate change campaigners, interactive workshops and skills training, media stunts, social events and grassroots movement building!
Power Shift, like the AYCC, is based upon the passion and dedication of volunteers. We are looking for twenty  outstanding young people to help the National Logistics Manager to make Power Shift a reality.

RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Prepare the Power Shift venue with AYCC banners, arrows and room signs
  • Manage the participant registration desk
  • Organise conference materials
  • Answer participants questions during Power Shift
  • Collect special guests from the airport
  • Report problems or unusual activities to the Logistics Volunteer Manager

SKILLS

Logistics Volunteers are the face of the AYCC. They are the first point of contact for participants and special guests alike, so they must have a pleasant, confident manner and enjoy meeting new people. Logistics Volunteers will need to be capable of working unsupervised. We're looking for people who enjoy taking the initiative to fix problems and help
the people around them. A current drivers license is also highly desirable. Previous experience working with  non-governmental organisations would be advantageous, however, we recognise that the best people may have no formal experience but are quick learners.

APPLICATION PROCESS
Please send a short resume (2 pages max) and a one paragraph explanation of why you would be suitable for the position to Emily Murray, National Logistics Manager at Emily.Murray@youthclimatecoalition.org. If you have any questions about the role, please email them to Emily Murray.

People wishing to apply for a Welfare Volunteer position are also encouraged to apply for an Accomodation Volunteer position, as the positions require similar skills and applicants are likely to be suited for both roles.
