Red Cross Shop Assistants Need for New Shop in Rotorua
Rotorua Red Cross Shop Outlet is re-opening!
We are excited to be back with a new location, and we urgently need more volunteers to join our team.
We're looking for friendly, reliable people to help in shifts during our shop opening hours. These are from 9am-5pm Monday to Saturday and 9am - 4pm on Sundays.
Role description
Volunteer in a Red Cross Shop and support our work helping communities both here and overseas.
Our 50 shops across the country sell mainly second-hand clothing and household items. They provide affordable shopping for the community, funding for our humanitarian work, and support sustainability through recycling unwanted items.
Your tasks
Your volunteer role in a Red Cross Shop will include:
Unpacking and sorting goods.
Greeting and serving customers.
Restocking and merchandising the shop.
Volunteer requirements and training
We need friendly people with good communication skills and a can-do attitude. An eye for design is always a bonus.
You’ll receive on-the-job training, and we can help you get your Certificate in Retail from Service IQ. This programme is free and available to volunteers who have been with us for 3 months. It takes 6-9 months and can cover Level 2 to Level 4.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.8% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
Poll: Could having a bigger university presence bring new opportunities and energy to the Bay of Plenty?
As reported in The Post, the University of Waikato is planting roots in Tauranga as it works on “ambitious plans” to grow its Durham St campus. The goal? To see Tauranga recognised as a true “university city.”
We want to know: Could having a bigger university presence bring new opportunities and energy to the region? We’d love to hear your thoughts!
-
57.1% Yes!
-
28.6% Nah
-
14.3% Mmm, let's wait and see
