Our retail roles are full of variety, and every day is different One day you might be be generating and processing stock and designing an eye-catching window display. The next day you might be recruiting and training our wonderful volunteers. Every day there will be a different challenge that you’ll find extremely rewarding. You may also deputise and be responsible for running the shop when the shop manager is absent. A great attitude and willingness to learn are just as important as relevant experience.

About you

But we do ask that you are business minded and have worked in a fast paced, service environment where you put the customer’s needs first.

You will also demonstrate an appreciation of Scope’s values and ambition of achieving Everyday Equality for disabled people.
