VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
Are you interested in joining us as a volunteer?
There are many opportunities to get involved ranging from formal positions on committees all year round, to helping out at individual events or offering an hour or two of your professional skills (marketing, communication, analytics, events, customer service measurement, etc.) on a specific project.
Elections to Board and Programme Director positions are held once every 2 years at the AGM, usually in May. The last Board was elected in June 2023, so the next Board is due to be elected in May 2025. In the case of resignations or other changes, an opportunity may arise within the Board term.
Team and Programme leaders are expected to commit the necessary time and to attend events for which they are responsible. Please ensure that you are able to do this in order to support the other team members.
Finally, you can also volunteer at Global level, but in general they prefer to see some evidence of engagement at local level from candidates, so come and work with us first!

PWI Brussels Programmes: Mentoring, Entrepreneurship, STEAM, YourPath
Mentoring Team
The Mentoring Programme is one of the “shining stars” of our network at PWI Brussels and PWN Global. One of our key missions is to encourage mentoring among members and to encourage members to seek out mentors both within and outside their companies. It’s a valuable investment programme to provide additional guidance. Our formal programme helps women establish senior-level connections that can speed up careers.
We are looking for an experienced, motivated and organised volunteer to join our Mentoring Team. She would be managing the daily running of the Mentoring Programme and assisting our Mentoring Director. The role is in a multicultural and HR soft skills environment and requires someone who can work independently and with a positive “can do” attitude. See also Mentoring page

YourPath Team
Each team will be requested to attend monthly internal meetings, but if the team rotates its participation, this could be once every few months for the individuals. In addition, each team will meet regularly. Please check with the relevant team leaders for more details as to how that team is organised. We would also ask that you attend some PWI events, such as networkings, speaker events, etc.
If you are interested in being part of one of these dynamic, supportive and fun teams, please send an email to the relevant address above outlining your motivation.
