VOLUNTEERING REQUIREMENTS
Everyone is welcome to volunteer for Coastrek. We have volunteers from all ages and stages, with a wide range of skills and experiences. You’ll simply need:
- A positive, can-do attitude!
- To be eligible to work in Australia.
- To be over 18 years old.
We support diversity and have a range of roles to accommodate different needs.
VOLUNTEER ROLES
We have a few different roles for our Vollies, and we try super hard to cater to your needs and preferences within your role.
Volunteer Captain
Leaders, put your hands up! This role is perfect for our empowerers who love a bit of responsibility. You'll need to be pro-active and solution oriented, and bring bundles of energy to support the Site Manager in this important role.
Event Day Assistant
If you love variety, this is a great role for you. This role will report to the Site Manager or Vollie Captain and will involve lots of different activities! You might be setting up at a Luv Stop, cheering on trekkers, tidying up the site, replenishing drinks and food or helping pack down at the end of the day. As always with Coastrek, enthusiasm, smiles and energy are a must!
Team Changes Assistant
Your lovely face is the first thing trekkers will see in the morning! This role is great for friendly people who are detail and task oriented. It's a less 'high energy' role (no cheering required!) if that's not your jam.
"We all had an amazing time, felt honoured to be part of it and were very humbled by the amazing efforts of the trekkers.” Kerry Lowe, Human Resources, Youi
"I want to thank you for the opportunity of being a part of such a great event and I hope that some small part I was able to assist the trekkers in making their day memorable. It was a huge day and all the organisers should be proud of their efforts."
"Awesome day that was so well organised. Thank you to the volunteers who made sure we didn't wander off in the wrong direction!" Kerrie, Sunshine Coast 2018
"What a great event. As a volunteer I had the best fun!" Karen, Adelaide 2018
