**The Role**

As our Donation Centre Supervisor, you will lead by example and your hard work and commitment will be essential to ensure that donations received are efficiently processed and delivered to our network of shops to ensure that we can raise the funds needed to invest in bringing vital cancer research and expertise to Yorkshire.

You will be responsible for stock control and movement, and you will help with organising Van Drivers to prepare collections and deliveries, whilst working in a way that reduces the risk of injury and damage to all areas of the business, in accordance with all safety regulations. You will also be expected to foster a culture of safety and well-being within the Donation Centre.

You will support the Donation Centre Manager and share responsibility for all stock-related processes including storage and distribution, supporting the management of the volunteer team and weekly logistics, ensuring that current retail trends are capitalised on through all outlets and channels.

Providing exceptional customer service is crucial in boosting our income, as is the efficient sorting and distribution of donations across our shop network. The role can be demanding, but the variety ensures that no two days are alike. The rewarding aspect of this role lies in the knowledge that your efforts contribute to funding vital research that saves lives.

Specifically, you will:

- Support the Donation Centre Manager in managing the daily running of the Donation Centre, maintaining policies and procedures with Retail teams.
- Support the Donation Centre Manager in planning and administering the weekly logistics, to ensure stock is collected and delivered to the network of shops, and to plan for collections from donors’ homes.
- Take responsibility for all products in the Donation Centre, ensuring they are sorted, stored, and selected appropriately to maximise profits.
- Work with the Donation Centre Manager to ensure donated goods are distributed equally, considering style of shop, location and demography, to maximise profit for Yorkshire Cancer Research.
- Work with Donation Centre Manager to ensure all retail channels are well stocked at all times and ensure that current trends are capitalised on through all outlets and channels.
- Ensure that the logistics of goods are handled to ensure clear sorting, storage and delivery to retail outlets.
- Support management of the volunteer rota on a weekly basis to ensure the Donation Centre is fully operational during opening hours.
- Support management of Donation Centre volunteers. This will include recruiting, inducting, managing, motivating, and training to ensure a positive working environment.
- Help create a welcoming professional atmosphere and deliver high standards of customer service for all donors, customers and supporters.
