Leeds, United Kingdom Barnardo's Full time

Our amazing team of vibrant & diverse volunteers helps us run our retail shops, raising money for vulnerable children, young people and families across the UK. Do you have a keen eye for hidden gem?

You will need to fully research the items including ensuring that the items have sold previously and/or are likely to sell, then prepare the items for safe transport to our online sales department.
