Foodbank Manager
We are delighted to be working in partnership with Vineyard Community & Richmond Foodbank, a Christian charity in Richmond that is committed to helping people through tough times and giving them the chance to thrive. Whether someone’s facing homelessness, food poverty, escaping abuse, or battling mental health challenges, Vineyard Community & Richmond Foordbank (VC&RFB) is there with care and support.

- Excellent relationship-building skills with experience supervising staff and/or volunteers
- Strong organisational skills, with experience in organising or coordinating activities, rotas or service delivery
