You get a beautiful world in return! We are looking for volunteers who want to be responsible for interviewing and matching host families and 'guests'. Our guests are status holders and now have a residence permit. Our Matchmakers match these families and guests and guide them during the stay. These guests will live in a municipality in Overijssel. When a status holder stays with a Dutch host family, both our guest and our host family learn from each other in an accessible way. The guest gets a unique insight into Dutch culture and gets the chance to master the language and customs. The host family in turn learns a lot about the culture of the guest. Great neighbourliness! Almost all our host families experience this stay as an enrichment in their lives. The best thing is when the match is in the region where the guest is eventually assigned a home, the so-called 'coupled municipality'. In this way, we give status holders a better start in their new environment! What will you do as a Matchmaker? As a Matchmaker, you interview our guests at the AZC or elsewhere and our host families at their homes. You inform them about the procedure of a match.

Takecarebnb provides you with these guests and host families via a database system. As a Matchmaker, you follow the guest and the host family remotely during the match period (three months). As a volunteer, we will support you with advice and assistance from our office in Amsterdam and you will be assigned a personal coordinator as a buddy. As a volunteer, you are a highly valued colleague within Takecarebnb! Do you recognize yourself in these skills? • Intercultural and customer-oriented thinking; • Conducting structured conversations • Being able to ask questions to clarify expectations; • Being able to critically assess situations and act accordingly; • Flexible attitude, careful • Honest and non-judgmental; • Being able to speak and write Dutch well, knowledge of the English language; • Wanting to operate independently and in a team; • Create conversation reports in our database What we offer you • The opportunity to use your talent and/or experience in a meaningful volunteer role; • An inspiring network in your region; • Practical start with a fellow matchmaker who takes you along on conversations; • A permanent coordinator as a point of contact • Several relevant training courses and masterclasses annually by specialists in the field; • Periodic intervision meetings with fellow Matchmakers; • Volunteer compensation; • A place within a close-knit team in an enthusiastic and inspiring organization; • You work from home, visit the host families and are always welcome in our office in Amsterdam; • The opportunity to really make a difference in the lives of both the guests and the host families! Location and hours You live in Overijssel and you can make about 5-8 hours per week to be busy as a Matchmaker. The hours can be divided yourself and depend on the workload and the period. Are you interested or would you like more information first? Would you like to discuss this great role without obligation or speak to a fellow Matchmaker? Send an email.
