My role is fundamental to the delivery of VCE's core services and includes administration of a contact management database, signposting enquirers and to develop a good working relationship with the volunteers and promote their potential where possible.Administrating regular workshops for members of the public who want to volunteer. For example, many persons volunteering do so to achieve employability goals and VCE has targets to reach as part of this aim and has to evidence this to stakeholders including funders.Managing stands at promotional career events and assisting students with advice about career development.

I managed monthly competitions for both the Raising Kids and UK Family sites. This involved contacting winners, dealing with their enquiries and liaising with PR companies to assure their smooth running and member satisfaction, as competitions were central to the success of the site.I also set up new competitions which involves networking and research to find further competition providers.Additionally I have written reviews for press trips and feature writing for our various family topics such as Summer holiday activites.We also had a book review section on the site which I manage and deal with members' requests.On a weekly basis I devoted time to publicizing all our newest competitions on other competition portals.
