About the role

At the heart of our operation is our Response Network of Sonder Responders who provide in-person support to our members who need help, when they need it, in coordination with our Support Centre. Serving and former workers from within the identified industries are eligible to apply, as there is plenty of flexibility to enjoy your work-life balance with your on-call capacity.

Ideally based in, or around, Albury. You’ll be a part of the Sonder Responders Network employed in a casual capacity.

Sonder Responders work a flexible, 24-hour on-call roster, and this is an exciting opportunity for the right people to build and expand the network in Australia from the ground level. Your experience in decision-making, response, empathy, and a drive to help others will be essential to success and satisfaction in this role.
