The Seattle Chinese Garden in West Seattle is spreading the word to fill two key positions, "which will help the garden grow and provide the infrastructure for the growing momentum and excitement around the garden," according to Julia Freimund, program director for the garden.

“We are looking for people who can work well independently and as a team AND who like to bring ideas to reality,” Freimund said.

The 20 hour/wk paid Office Coordinator position will ensure that the daily office operations of the Garden runs smoothly and efficiently and the brick ordering process is accurate and quick.

The unpaid Volunteer Coordinator has the exciting and fulfilling role of recruiting, training, and scheduling volunteers to volunteer in the Discovery Center, garden, and/or office. The Coordinator can work from home or the office but occasional hours during the early evening or weekends are necessary in order to phone volunteers when they are available. Very flexible hours with an average of about 10 hours/week.

The descriptions of the two openings are attached above as PFDs and posted on their website. They are opened until filled but interviews will start in mid-June.

From Julia:
Interested applicants should email their cover letter and resume to info@seattlechinesegarden.org. Their ideas, energy, and skills will have a tangible impact on our organization. This is an exciting time to be involved in the Garden as it is growing and changing every day and we get more visitors and volunteers every month.
