- Champion environmental sustainability, embedding low-waste, low-carbon practices across all food services.
- Organise and deliver quarterly workshops on food waste reduction and eating on a budget.
Volunteer Leadership & Team Management
- In partnership with the Volunteer Manager, recruit, train, and support volunteers across the Foodbank, Food Pantry, café, warm meals, and cargo bike services.
- Work with colleagues to develop food collection rotas, provide training (food safety, customer care), and ensure smooth operations across all food-related services.
- Foster an inclusive, positive volunteer culture, ensuring volunteers feel valued and engaged.
Compliance, Monitoring & Resource Management
- Ensure compliance with Food Hygiene, Health & Safety, and Environmental Standards, maintaining accurate records and certifications.
- Manage budgets effectively, ensuring value for money and accurate reporting.
Innovation & Development
- Work with colleagues to explore and develop revenue opportunities linked to sustainable food and transport initiatives (e.g., monetising cargo bike deliveries).
