The Good Scientists is a volunteer-based platform for scientists to engage with the Third Sector (NGOs, non-profits, and civil society organisations). Our goal is to make science accessible and actionable for social impact.
We are an organisation run by passionate volunteers that want to create opportunities for scientists to create social and environmental impact.
👩💻 We are looking for a volunteer that can help improve and maintain updated our website. It would be great if you already have experience with Wix, and a creative mindset.
Responsibilities:
👌 Improve and maintain our website.
👌 Implement new features on the website such as our blog and News feed.
👌 Design the private area of the website where our Science4Good platform is hosted.
👌 Manage payments on Wix.
👌 Interact with users (scientists and NGOs) of the platform for customer support.
Preferred skills:
✔️ Passion for our mission
✔️ Experience in website design on Wix, but no advanced level needed: you will have the chance to learn with us!
We offer
💟 You will work in a global team of volunteers based across Europe and North America.
💟 You will set your own Individual Development Plan of self-growth targets and skills you want to acquire.
💟 Work at your own pace and set milestones in accordance with the leadership.
🌈 We value diversity, our team members are spread across the 4 corners of the Globe: west to east from California to Thailand, and north to south from The Netherlands to Senegal.
🕰️ We work flexibly and remotely. There are no minimum time requirements to join: you will have the chance to set your timeline and adjust to the working style that works best for you. We have bi-weekly meetings to share milestones.
📖 Additionally to fulfilling our motivation to translate science into social impact we grow our expertise through mutual learning, expanding professional networks, attending training and developing transferable skills for our future careers.
This is a volunteering unpaid position.
