E-commerce Volunteer

What is the role? With the world moving towards 'digital by default' as a means of buying goods, our online stores provide an alternative to those who prefer not to shop in store, or who want to access a greater variety of items online. Based at our Donation Centre, you will be supporting our E-commerce team by listing donated items onto a number of sales platforms, including eBay, Amazon and Abe books. You may also be taking photographs of items for sale, or packing orders ready for dispatch. We currently have a number of volunteer vacancies for shifts from 9am to 4pm Monday to Friday What will I be doing?

• Sorting stock deemed fit for sale via our online platforms
• Scanning of DVD's, CD's and books ready for sale on various online platforms (72 hours after donation)
• Dispatching sold items, helping us with packing and dispatching of various items sold online
• Following the current 'clean-down' process of work stations, and recording onto cleaning checklist
• Helping product specialists to undertake research and evaluate various donations for us
• Photographing donated items, ready for sale online
• Providing support with basic administrative tasks
  
  We appreciate your time is valuable. Whether you can spare a few hours occasionally, or on a more regular weekly basis, as part of the St Michael's Hospice team you will pay a vital role in supporting your local hospice.
Our volunteers help in many different ways, carrying out a variety of essential roles from supporting patients and their families, to sorting donations to stock our retail shops and raising vital funds to keep the Hospice running. They come from all backgrounds and ages and share a common goal of wanting to give something back to their local community, while learning new skills and making friends along the way.
