- Keep the shop safe and secure including opening and locking up when required.
- Deputise in the absence of the shop manager.

- Supervisory skills or management experience.
- Willingness to share your skills and experience with fellow volunteers as required.
- Excellent communication, interpersonal and customer service skills.
- A professional manner and the confidence to carry out tasks independently.
- A willingness to learn new skills and engage with the public.
- Adaptable to support a range of people & their needs.
- Basic numeracy skills.
- Have basic IT skills and confidence.
- Responsible & trustworthy.
**What's in it for you?**
- Improve communication skills and boost your CV with supervisory experience.
- Grow your confidence and meet new people.
- Some lunch and travel expenses.
- We can be flexible around education, family, work, or health etc.
- Volunteering is great for staying socially and physically active.
We normally ask for 4 - 8 hours per week. We can be very flexible around parenting / caring / health / employment / education and any other commitments you have. Some travel and lunch expenses can be covered too.
If you have a few hours to give to Shaw Trust then we'd like to hear from you.
