Do you have experience of successfully leading a team?

Are you passionate and creative? Are you flexible, adaptable and willing to learn?

We’re looking for someone who loves working with people and has the ability to lead and inspire those around them. Our successful candidate will be someone who is energetic and positive in their approach and attitude, with the ability to instill this in others. They will be hard working and can lead by example, being hands on themselves when necessary but ultimately with the ability to drive productivity through empowering the volunteer team.

This is a great opportunity for someone who can work with a diverse group of volunteers to create a welcoming space in our shop to attract more volunteers, donors and supporters. We are looking for someone who is driven and motivated to raise as much money as possible to help children build a better future. The right person needs to be able to motivate teams of volunteers to achieve goals and targets.

We will provide you with the right training, support and coaching you need in order to successfully manage and lead a team of volunteers in running our community shop. We are looking for someone to lead, inspire and bring together the already large volunteering team and ensure it is a welcoming space for everyone. As shop manager you will have a resilient, ‘can do’ attitude, and can lead by example, being hands on when necessary but ultimately drive productivity through empowering the volunteer team. Our lovely shop in Sheffield is in a busy location and is well established with a strong volunteering team. You will be engaging with the local community to grow and develop the volunteer team and build on the large level of donations and gift aid. This is an exciting opportunity to create and deliver something special in a beautiful location.
