   About the Position

Impact Statement
Over the years, team members at the YWKW have developed programs to meet the changing needs of local women, trans, and non-binary folks and remain committed to gender equality. By digitizing our HR processes, the YW human resources team can better serve these amazing team members who have dedicated their careers to such great work. A volunteer in this role will help us to accelerate progress towards our goals.

Individuals interested in the field of Human Resources will gain exposure to the types of documents that are collected/processed by the HR department and will have limited contact with anyone outside of the HR department in this role.

Persons with previous experience within an office environment are encouraged to apply.

The YW’s HR Team is in the process of digitizing our library of employee files. We're looking for one or more volunteers to help us move documents from paper to digital format.
