Online Retail Volunteer

Volunteer as an online retail assistant

Do you know your Gucci from your Marks and Sparks?

Do you have good IT skills and some spare time to help us?

We are looking for volunteers just like you to photograph and list fashion on our eBay and Depop online shops.

Just a little of your time could help us to develop our online fashion sales and maximise the value of each donation. This will help us to generate essential income for our patient care.

If you are confident using computers and able to demonstrate accuracy and attention to detail, we would love to hear from you.  

You’ll be working with our online team at Grafton Gate in CMK.

Hours available

Fully flexible, weekdays between 9am and 4.30pm Monday to Friday. We will always try to work with the time you have to offer and can organise a tour and trial session for you.
