Tokyo JALT is seeking 1-2 volunteers for the newly established position of External Outreach Coordinator.
The External Outreach Coordinator(s) will report directly to the President of the Chapter and work closely with the Publicity and Programs Officers. Candidates do not need to be a current member of JALT. This would be a perfect position for a current ALT, JET, or an eikaiwa or corporate employee. Former ALTs, JETs, and Japanese-speaking volunteers are especially encouraged to apply.
Responsibilities:
- Developing a publicity program and acting as a liaison with external (non-JALT) organizations both domestically and internationally.
- Willing and able to contact educational and professional organizations in order to foster and further strong connections (particularly with ALTs and JETs).
- Additional responsibilities may include writing for local publications or speaking at local events.
This position will provide an excellent opportunity to increase knowledge of educational practices and communities in a fast-paced volunteer setting. As a coordinator in the largest JALT Chapter, the position will also provide opportunities for CV building, networking, and further advancement. Please contact Tokyo.JALT@gmail.com by the deadline of June 15, 2016 with a short (~150 word) statement of your experience and interest.
