Job Description

We are looking for a high performing and experienced professional from either the charity retail sector or commercial retail to act as Retail Advisor to our Retail Committee with the possible option to become an active Trustee in the future as vacancies allow.

We are a local life-saving charity covering Essex, Hertfordshire and surrounding areas.  We could not provide our 24/7 service to the communities we serve without the dedicated Trustee Board and a commitment from our entire team, who are passionate about our goals and objectives.

We currently operate a warehouse, an e-commerce team and 9 charity shops with plans to open more shops over the next 3 years.  Your role would include offering advice, assistance and support to the Retail Committee in order to help develop the strategy, profitability and structure of our retail division.  We are a team that likes to think innovatively and would welcome someone who can develop ideas and new ways of working.  This is a very exciting time for the charity.

This very fulfilling role is unpaid and an anticipated time commitment of 3 meetings a year, plus the requirement to attend other ad hoc meetings and events as required.  Retail Committee meetings will take place at regular intervals during the annual calendar at various locations in Essex/Hertfordshire or via zoom.
