Retail Assistant

Starter Packs Glasgow
VO101650

Do you like shops and want to beat the winter blues by joining a fantastic team here at Starter Packs Glasgow?

With two cracking charity shops in The Magpie's Eye and The Magpie's Nest which help support Starter Packs Glasgow's vital work, we really need brilliant Volunteer Retail Assistants to help us operate both shops.

From sorting through donations and pricing up items to helping us re-stock and sell across both shops, volunteers will be joining a great family here doing a brilliant service.

Offering flexibility in terms of the amount of hours you can offer, our shops are open Monday to Saturday 9.30-5.30pm with flexibility across that week. No amount of time is too small and we are incredibly grateful to all our volunteers.

In return for your help, you will be joining a wonderful team who have a lot of laughs alongside the important work they do. Alongside a Starter Packs T-shirt, tea, cofee, snacks and biscuits will be on offer along with a shop discount if you see anything you'd like to buy. We get wonderful and varied donations so there's probably bound to be something that catches your eye!

If interested, please click the APPLY button below once you have logged in and registered. One of our team will then be in touch with you to arrange a visit around the charity and both shops.

If you have not heard back after 5 working days, the first step is to contact the organisation with the contact details provided. You could also check your junk/spam folder on your emails just in case the response is there. If that doesn’t work out then please feel free to contact Volunteer Glasgow on info@volunteerglasgow.org
