About Us  

Save the Children UK believes every child deserves a future. In the UK and around the world, we work every day to give children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. When crisis strikes, and children are most vulnerable, we are always among the first to respond and the last to leave. We ensure children's unique needs are met and their voices are heard, delivering lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach.

You'll manage and develop a dedicated volunteer team of over 30 people, building capability, engagement and stability while maintaining the high standards that have made the shop one of the town's leading charity retail destinations.

With trading across two floors and plans to return to seven-day opening, you'll play a key role in driving future growth. From developing the dedicated volunteer team to evolving the shop's unique retail offer and identifying new commercial opportunities, you'll have the freedom to combine creativity with commercial thinking to maximise income for children around the world.

We're looking for a people leader who can inspire, embrace innovation and build on strong foundations to take an already successful store to the next level!

In this role, you will: 

• Build, lead and inspire a diverse and motivated volunteer team, championing volunteer recruitment and development to ensure the shop thrives. 

• Drive income and profitability by monitoring financial performance, identifying opportunities, and maximising every area of the business. 

• Deliver retail excellence through effective day-to-day operational management, ensuring compliance, efficiency and high standards across the shop.

What we offer you 

We promote flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, and wellbeing both at work and beyond, and offer a wide range of benefits designed to reward your hard work and inspire you to help improve the lives of children every day. 

Some of the benefits you can expect include: 

• Generous Annual Leave – Starting at 27 days per year (pro rata for part-time employees) increasing with service up to 32 days, plus public holidays and our annual 'Save the Children Day'. 
• Family Leave – Up to 39 weeks of maternity/adoption pay (including up to 21 weeks full pay) and paternity/adoption leave of 10 weeks full pay (plus statutory entitlement).

Location & Ways of Working:

This role is based full-time in our Garstang shop.

Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion: 

Save the Children UK believes in a world that is fair, inclusive and equitable where all children have the opportunity to change their world.

We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, and are especially interested in hearing from people with diverse and intersecting identities such as lived experience of poverty, people of faith, people of colour, people with disabilities, with experience of migration and/or refugee status, care-experienced people, the LGBTQIA+ community and individuals with experience living in diverse families.

We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think. We know that different voices working together will enable us to do our work better, improving the lives of children around the world.
