- Ensure that all charity policies, standards and operating procedures are communicated effectively to all members of your team and be comfortable in supporting your peers to change their behaviour or processes if they are not adhering.

- Ensure that the donated goods are processed in a timely manner to maximise income for the charity.

- Manage complaints effectively and efficiently, escalating through the Operations team structure, as appropriate, where they cannot be resolved at a local level.

- To have a basic understanding of Microsoft Office programs including Outlook, Word, and Excel.
