  • You'll be confident within a team environment and comfortable guiding the activity of volunteers on the shop floor
  • Able to work well under pressure and on your own initiative in a dynamic and fast-paced environment
  • Attention to detail in everything you do

We receive 1.6 million items donated to our home stores and 9.8 million bags of donated items and will continue to build upon our reuse agenda in the years to come.

    Everything we do comes back to funding lifesaving research for all heart and circulatory conditions. We are more ambitious and determined than ever – because the cures and treatments we need are in sight. You could be part of getting us there sooner
