Because Home is Everything

- Be part of a great team, both in your shop and within Shelter Retail
- Build your confidence and develop transferable skills
- Enhance your CV – this is the perfect role for you to demonstrate the step from sales advisor to supervisory/management roles
- Opportunities to develop your retail skills further out at events like Charity Supermarket and pop-up shops
What Our Volunteers Say:
“Shelter was one of the first physical places where I felt I could fully be myself."
“Genuinely the highlight of my week. Feel like I’m part of something bigger.”
“Helping in the shop gives me satisfaction and gives me a place to go if feeling lonely and down.”
Next Steps: Please complete an application form online. After you have applied, we will review your application and invite successful candidates to attend a recruitment conversation.
Please note, you will be asked to declare any unspent convictions. As the role you are applying for has been designated as a regulated role, we will require you to undertake a basic Criminal Record Check. Having a criminal record does not mean that you cannot volunteer with us. It may limit the different ways that you can get involved, but please contact us if you require more information.
