Hi, we're the Mid-Ohio Food Collective. Yes, we're a foodbank and collect and distribute an impressive amount of food, but that's not all.

So when life happens, we're here for our neighbors that need us.
Core Role Summary

The Volunteer Services Manager advances our mission by building and leading volunteer programs that create meaningful impact across Mid-Ohio Food Collective's operations. This role ensures volunteers and community partners are engaged, prepared, and supported-so service experiences are effective, safe, and aligned with organizational goals.

Key responsibilities include:

How Your Days Flow

You'll start by reviewing the volunteer calendar, attendance trends, and any open questions from partners or internal teams, then align the day's priorities with your staff through brief check-ins. Much of your time is spent connecting-confirming group details, preparing clear communications, and ensuring volunteers have the right information to contribute to community impact.

As the day unfolds, you move between planning and problem-solving: updating systems, reviewing metrics, and documenting improvements that strengthen consistency across programs. When sensitive situations arise, you respond with discretion and steady judgment, keeping the experience respectful and mission-aligned. You may also step into public-facing moments-sharing MOFC's work with diverse audiences and reinforcing a service environment where people can make a difference.
