Keen, committed voluntary staff have always played a vital role in Greenpeace.

As a volunteer you'll have the opportunity to join a local or fundraising community group, be involved in campaign actions or perhaps help out in one of the Greenpeace offices.

If you have relevant skills or interests, we can discuss how to incorporate these into your voluntary work. Our volunteers sometimes assist with research, local actions, fundraising, information technology or as tradespeople.

Other ways of volunteering

You may have other skills you would like to volunteer. Please fill in our online application form and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
An internship is a great way to get good practical experience in your chosen field.

We have a wide range of interesting internships in our Sydney, Canberra and Suva (Fiji) offices that will help you gain real-world job experience.

Ways you can volunteer:

Get active, join a Greenpeace local group
Greenpeace local groups help our environmental campaigns through public outreach, letter-writing, lobbying, research and non-violent direct action. Local groups meet regularly to train, share campaign updates and plan activities. Organise community fundraising events
Volunteers are the foundation of Greenpeace and holding your own fundraiser is a great way to be part of our team. Fundraising events, like quiz or movie nights, harbour cruises or bushwalks, are an easy and fun way to help achieve a green and peaceful future.

Volunteer in a Greenpeace office

Volunteers play an important role in Greenpeace's offices in Sydney, Canberra and Suva. They assist with everything from photocopying to researching material for our campaign teams. If you have any questions, comments, queries or even information for us regarding volunteering for Greenpeace, please email volunteer@au.greenpeace.org.
