Who are we looking for?
* You’ll have good experience in a busy, hands‑on environment where you are used to getting things done at pace.
* You’ll have experience in a customer‑facing environment where you’ve delivered great customer service throughout your working day.
* Retail experience is desirable but not essential.
* Management or supervisory experience would be advantageous.
* You’ll have great people skills and the ability to lead and supervise a group of volunteers.
* You should have the ability to problem‑solve and work under pressure while being self‑motivated and driven.
