At Tŷ Hafan our people values are working together, demonstrating compassion, providing excellent service and taking ownership.

This role is purely voluntary and this arrangement is not meant to be a legally binding one or an employment contract.

Are you driven and motivated by sales with knowledge of running an online shop? Are you familiar with Facebook marketplace, eBay Vinted and any others? Could you take on the roles of managing our products, selling them, packing them and posting them? A few hours a week volunteer time is all we are asking for a new dynamic role that could lead to a big business opportunity, whilst raising vital funds for a small grassroots charity. 

We are looking for an 'Online Seller' volunteer to coordinate the end to end process of itemising and uploading the items on online reseller sites (i.e. facebook marketplace, ebay, vinted), packing up items, and managing all communication and item exchange with interested buyers to maximise the funds from sales as much as possible. The items will be dropped off to you to coordinate pick up with buyers, and therefore we are looking for volunteers that are London based only and have the space to store small items (clothing, books, ornaments etc). 

As well as ideally having previous experience selling items online through online marketplaces like facebook and ebay, we are looking for volunteers who are highly organised, with strong written communication skills, in order to deal with buyers throughout the process. We are looking for that high energy person to help push the sales of our products, ranging right across the board from anything to everything.

This role will help raise vital funds for PINTs work and is a great chance to give time back to supporting an amazing grassroots charity. However there is commission avaliable of up to 50% per item of the profit made. The rewards are huge but the impact will be greater.
