Who we are looking for
Are you eager to learn and ready to take on real responsibility? Do you have a strong sense of justice and keep a clear head under pressure? Are you interested in asylum issues and curious about how an NGO runs behind the scenes? Then you’ve come to the right place!
Whether you’re studying, recently graduated or bringing experience from another field, we’d love to hear from you. What matters most is that you share AsyLex’s commitment to the rights of people seeking protection, like to take the initiative and can work independently.
You speak fluent German and English. French or other languages are a big plus.
Was wir bieten
You’ll join a highly motivated core team and work alongside talented volunteers in our central Zurich office. You’ll support people facing difficult life circumstances over the long term, help our volunteers in their work, bring in your own ideas and get a real insight into how an NGO is run.
Please note: this is an unpaid position, and AsyLex can’t cover travel costs.
