Our volunteer program is based on collaboration, responsibility and cultural exchange. Volunteers support daily hostel operations, events and social media while living on-site.
In return, volunteers receive accommodation and become part of an international, women-only hostel community in Amsterdam.
The program requires a commitment of up to 24 hours per week, scheduled across different tasks and shifts.
The schedule is flexible and partly self-managed, meaning volunteers are responsible for organizing their time and coordinating with the team.
Volunteers are expected to work up to 24 hours per week across the following activities:
- Hosting and organizing hostel events (individual and group)
- Creating and promoting social media content (Instagram, TikTok, etc.)
- Covering reception shifts (mainly night shifts from 21:00 to 01:00, and occasionally morning or afternoon shifts)
- Handling the hostel phone during night hours for late check-ins or urgent situations
- Assisting with light daily tasks and general support around the hostel
📌 If assigned to phone duty after 01:00, the volunteer must remain in the hostel and be available if needed.
Schedules may vary weekly depending on operational needs.
- A commitment of up to 24 hours per week is expected
- Volunteers are responsible for managing their schedule and coordinating fairly with the team
- Clear communication is required for scheduling, events, and content planning
- Phone duty must be followed as assigned
- Volunteers must follow hostel rules, safety procedures, and staff instructions
- Respect for guests, staff, and fellow volunteers is mandatory at all times
⭐ Days Off
- Volunteers have 1 guaranteed full day off per week
- The rest of the schedule is flexible and self-managed
- Volunteers have additional free time throughout the week outside of their -responsibilities
- If specific days off are needed, they must be communicated in advance and approved based on coverage
Many worldpackers have been applying to this position recently. The host will probably not be able to respond to all of the applications, so we recommend that you also apply to other hosts in our community and not just this one :)
