In the role of Health and Wellbeing Coordinator, you’ll will focus primarily on supporting the mental health and wellbeing of all Venturers and Venturer Managers on the Expedition. This includes delivering training during the induction period at the start of Expedition, as well as continuously reviewing support plans, taking pastoral calls and assessing and managing risks.

The Health and Wellbeing Coordinator role is situated at Fieldbase with scheduled visits out to the project sites. That means you’ll support Venturer Managers with managing wellbeing of the groups on project site. You’ll be on call to receive pastoral support calls and respond to mental health first aid situations (with support of full-time staff where required) and remotely risk assess and triage any Venturers requiring additional support. However, if there are specific wellbeing needs you will go to the project site.

As a Raleigh Venturer Manager, irrespective of your specific role, you’ll be a part of the Raleigh team ensuring the Venturers get the most from the experience. It’s also a great opportunity for you to develop your own leadership skills, resilience, and confidence.

Accommodation will depend on whether you are predominantly based at our project-sites or at Fieldbase, which is the operational hub of each country.  On project site, you may stay in community centres that have been organised by Raleigh, or camp outdoors on our group trek phases.  When working from Fieldbase, you’ll share living quarters with our other support volunteers.

All transport, bed and board in country for the purposes of the projects or Raleigh’s work is organised and paid for by Raleigh.
