Description of the mission

We are offering opportunities for volunteers interested in working within humanitarian aid NGO.

We have a variety of potential roles in our different departments - shipping and logistics, goods preparation for distribution, distribution client care, HR, corporate engagement, data maintenance / analysis, partnership development, fair-trade marketplace, IT support, communications & marketing, design, translation, administration, research, catering, property maintenance, hospitality, and running experiential simulation programmes.

As a Crossroads’ volunteer you will work in a international environment, together with many other full and part time volunteers, learn about the varied needs in Hong Kong and from around the world. English is the main working language in Crossroads, though having working fluency in other languages such as Cantonese, Mandarin would be useful also.

We don’t just give you busywork – you’ll play a genuine part in our operations, taking on and owning responsibilities that matter and seeing the impact of your efforts.

Start / End dates are flexible. We have different people joining at different times through the year.

This role is a full-time, unpaid, voluntary role based in Hong Kong. Like all our full time team, you will need to raise sufficient finance to support the living expenses for the duration of your volunteering placement.

Profile

You’ll immerse yourself in a vibrant, English-speaking environment where cultures meet, ideas flow freely, and lifelong friendships are formed. You’ll be entrusted with real responsibilities. We value your individuality, so after getting to know you through a an interview (and a pre-interview volunteering day visit), we’ll tailor your role to match your unique skills, interests, and experience. We also ask you to be prepared to be flexible and hands-on, willing to help where it's most needed even if it's not what you're most used to. Along the way, you’ll gain meaningful experience, build valuable skills, and grow in confidence, all while contributing to a cause bigger than yourself.
