🚀 Your mission at TADA 

You will join TADA's dynamic alumni team. Where the weekend school ends for 14-year-olds, our mission begins: supporting and inspiring our youth on their further journey to adulthood. This role involves a combination of organizational office work and contact with the youth (14y-25y) in the field. An ideal opportunity for someone who wants to make a real social impact in the heart of Brussels.

‍

💼 What will you do specifically?

1. Support in the Alumni Center: you are a driving force in the TADA Alumni Center on Wednesday afternoons. This is the "home base" where the youth come to study, ask for help, or participate in workshops.
   • You ensure a warm welcome and a constructive atmosphere.
   • You help young people formulate their needs (study assistance, internship placements, etc.).
   • You assist in the logistical and pedagogical preparation of workshops provided by partners.
   ‍
2. Coordination of Alumni Activities: together with an Alumni Coordinator, you organize activities that take place on Wednesdays or during the weekend (Saturday/Sunday).
   • Preparation: You support the practical and substantive preparation of the activities.
   • Communication: You speak the language of the youth and enthusiastically invite them through the right channels.
   • Guidance: During activities, you act as a point of contact for the youth and ensure the activity runs smoothly.
   ‍
3. Being part of the team:
   • You participate in weekly team meetings of the Alumni Team.
   • You proactively brainstorm on how we can increase the involvement of our alumni.
   • You contribute to administrative follow-up and the quality monitoring of our operations.

👤 Your profile

• You want to commit to equal opportunities and have a heart for Brussels' youth.

Practical

• Days: Ideally, 3 to 5 days per week.
