Typical day
- The Professional Volunteer project will place you with a vetted legally registered Cambodian Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO ) or social enterprise based in Siem
Reap province, guided according to Cambodian laws, honoring and respecting the
Cambodian culture and its religion. We therefore expect the same from you as a
volunteer.
- As part of the team, you will be typically reporting directly to the Managing Director , or an equally senior employee, as well as working with the local team and other volunteers. You will be able to work within a friendly, open and informal environment.
- Working hours are from 08.00AM until 05.00PM, 5 days a week from Monday to Friday. You will be based out of the NGO offices in Siem Reap town and, occasionally, you may be required to visit the local rural communities.
- It is also important to remember you are working with a grassroot organization with many daily operations, both large and small. As such, this role calls for a high measure of self-direction, motivation as well as a good dose of humility and respect.
