Volunteers Coordinator

The Volunteers Coordinator’s role is to work with the Programme Producer in the recruitment and training of volunteers for the Festival. The Coordinator oversees the volunteers’ support of the Festival by matching their availability, skills and interests to the organisation’s needs. The post holders need to enjoy working with a range of people, have excellent written and verbal communication skills, be confident at data processing and using spreadsheets as well as having good attention to detail and strong planning skills.

Our volunteer requirements vary depending on the detail of the programming. Most recently in 2026, 152 volunteers completed a total of 2295 hours of volunteering across the Festival.

We anticipate that the role will run from late January to mid-June. The successful candidate would need to be based in Norwich (or Norfolk) for the duration of the role and able to work from the Guildhall offices for a minimum 80% of their contracted hours.
