Art Expert

Help us to evaluate art

Do you have a few hours to volunteer for us?

Join our dynamic eBay team for just a few hours a week, to assess artwork donated by our kind supporters.

We need someone with knowledge of art, who will assess each item’s value and set an asking price on eBay. They will also assess which items are better to go into a specialist auction rather than on eBay, or if below a certain value, to be sent to our shops for sale.

It’s a great opportunity to socialise and enjoy a cup of tea with our dedicated team, while you do something fantastic to help us raise funds for Willen Hospice.

You will need to be IT literate, but experience of using eBay is not required as we will give you all the training you need. Please be aware that there will be manual handling involved.

Interested in knowing more? Please call Dulcie on 07714 703568 to discuss further or apply below.
