The main goal of a Volunteer Coordinator is to ensure an organization has enough volunteers to fulfill its service mission. To meet that goal, a Volunteer Coordinator must perform a variety of duties involving recruitment, training and program planning. We reviewed several Volunteer Coordinator job postings to determine the core duties associated with this job.
Recruit Volunteers
When an organization needs new volunteers, the Volunteer Coordinator uses a variety of methods to attract suitable candidates. The Volunteer Coordinator may place advertisements in the newspaper, post volunteer opportunities online or attend job fairs with the hope of meeting new volunteers. Volunteer Managers also interview potential volunteers to determine if they are a good fit for the organization.
Train Volunteers
Once a new volunteer comes on board, it is the Volunteer Coordinator's responsibility to provide comprehensive training. Volunteer Coordinators often conduct orientation sessions; give new volunteers tours of the building and help new volunteers are settled into their roles. In some cases, the Volunteer Coordinator also teaches volunteers new skills.
Create Program Reports
Without the right data, it is difficult to determine if a volunteer program is meeting its goals. Volunteer Coordinators collect data from volunteers and paid staff members, use the data to create reports and distribute those reports to key personnel in the organization.
Schedule Volunteers
The Volunteer Coordinator works closely with volunteers to come up with a schedule that works for everyone. If the organization has a special event planned, the Volunteer Manager is also responsible for ensuring the right number of volunteers is available to handle the extra work.
Determine the Need for Volunteers
Some volunteers stay with the same organization for years, but others stop volunteering after just a few months. A Volunteer Coordinator must be able to anticipate these changes and plan accordingly.

Mentors interact with their mentee on school premises, once each week for a meal, school program, game or conversation. The program requires a one-year commitment, but mentor-mentee pairings are encouraged to extend beyond the first year. The mentor visiting schedule is flexible during school hours.

To meet that goal, a Volunteer Coordinator must perform a variety of duties involving recruitment, training and program planning.

Recruit Volunteers
When an organization needs new volunteers, the Volunteer Coordinator uses a variety of methods to attract suitable candidates. The Volunteer Coordinator may place advertisements in the newspaper, post volunteer opportunities online or attend job fairs with the hope of meeting new volunteers. Volunteer Managers also interview potential volunteers to determine if they are a good fit for the organization.
Train Volunteers
Once a new volunteer comes on board, it is the Volunteer Coordinator's responsibility to provide comprehensive training. Volunteer Coordinators often conduct orientation sessions; give new volunteers tours of the building and help new volunteers are settled into their roles. In some cases, the Volunteer Coordinator also teaches volunteers new skills.
Create Program Reports
Without the right data, it is difficult to determine if a volunteer program is meeting its goals. Volunteer Coordinators collect data from volunteers and paid staff members, use the data to create reports and distribute those reports to key personnel in the organization.
Schedule Volunteers
The Volunteer Coordinator works closely with volunteers to come up with a schedule that works for everyone. If the organization has a special event planned, the Volunteer Manager is also responsible for ensuring the right number of volunteers is available to handle the extra work.
