Do you always have a welcoming smile on your face and love getting in to conversations?
Why not get to know the people from your community with this versatile volunteering role. Gain valuable experience in customer service adding value to your CV.
Our sales assistant volunteers are the first point of contact for customers when they enter our shops. As a sales assistant volunteer you will greet customers, help them find the items they’re looking for and answer their questions where you can. With support from the shop team, your invaluable efforts at keeping the sales floor well stocked and organised will help us make a mission possible by raising as much as we can to fund lifesaving research.
