Education Technology Capacity Enabler - Volunteer (Talent Pool)
Voluntary Service Overseas (VSO)
Roster/Talent Pool VSO is a not-for-profit organisation that promotes volunteering as a powerful and practical way to tackle poverty and inequality. Our purpose is to create lasting change through volunteering.

We know that people in developing countries have the desire, power, courage and determination to shape their own futures.
Through our Volunteering for Development (VfD) approach, we put the most marginalised people first. Grounded in years of evidence and learning, this approach develops active citizens who drive local community-led change and deliver sustainable development goals long after a project or grant ends.
This role serves as an embedded catalyst for system development by supporting school leaders and teachers in operationalizing EdTech tools, collecting actionable data, facilitating contextualized training, and surfacing challenges for system-wide learning and adaptation
The role holder will play an important role in improving the quality and accessibility of education through innovative technology solutions while working with other local educators and school leaders in the community.
