Are you looking to make a tangible and visible contribution and turn compassion into action for the homeless and vulnerable in Scotland? Search no more!
Role
The purpose of this role is primarily to provide high-quality administrative support to our Head of Retail and Shop Managers. This will involve coordinating key retail functions such as our EPOS System, Gift Aid, marketing, reporting, shop promotions, health and safety. The post holder will be based at our office on Bonnington Road, but the role will require regular visits to each of our eight retail locations across Edinburgh, East Lothian and Glasgow. Strong administration, communication and problem-solving skills are essential to this role, and retail experience is preferable.
Our mission is to relieve the suffering and meet the long-term needs of people who are homeless and vulnerable in Scotland. To support us in achieving that, our eight charity shops aim to successfully raise our profile, generate significant shop income and increase donations.
