• Serve as the friendly first point of contact for Host Family inquiries and support
• Build partnerships with local businesses and community organizations
• Design and launch creative Host Family advertisements
• Lead focus groups and collect feedback to continuously improve the Host experience
• Visit and vet prospective Host Families with an eagle eye for detail
• Keep Homestay records organized and up to date

What We’re Looking For:
