Aprašymas
We are looking for a builder that can support the physical developments and upkeep of our creative Hub Blivande and adjacent container village Frihamnstorget. You will be a hands-on and practical support behind renovations, building projects, and overall support to the community in developing the space. We will teach you the logistics of the house and outdoor spaces, and you will be able to answer when community members and visitors have practical questions. As someone with a solid interest in tools and handy problem- solving attitude, you will contribute to ongoing building projects such as “Reasons to Stay” and “Growing Beauty,” where we build physical structures with groups of citizens and youths to make the container village more engaging, thought-provoking and unique. In between projects, you will have time to research ideas, materials, and solutions for improving the spaces. During the summer months, we host a public cultural program, where you will join the bigger team.

Dalyvio profilis
As a volunteer you will thrive at Blivande if you are hands-on, proactive, and community-minded, and enjoy working in a creative and dynamic environment. For this role it is important that you have a builder mindset, are not afraid of physical work and like fixing problems. It will be easier for you to jump into action if you have some previous experience with tools. As you will work with a large variety of people, it is important that you enjoy helping others, have an inclusive mindset (we have many neurodivergent community members) and thrive in community settings, where many people need to be taken into account for decision making. Communication is key in our organisation as we are running so many parallel processes and projects. Please be aware that a lot of cultural productions happen during the weekend and evenings. This means that we have flexible working hours. Sometimes you will be working on weekends or evenings, but you can then take days during the week off, to compensate and rest.
