Job description

Ebay and e-Commerce Volunteer

Volunteer to help Sue Ryder be there when it matters.

Join our friendly team as an eBay and e-Commerce Volunteer at your local Sue Ryder shop! This is a great opportunity to gain valuable work experience in e-commerce whilst helping us to raise funds for our important charity work.

Our shops are exciting places to volunteer with the range of amazing items that we have donated - no two days are ever the same! In this role, you will support us to identify and research a range of products that have been donated ready to be listed on the Sue Ryder eBay page to maximise revenue. We’d then love for you to help photograph the items (don’t worry, you don’t need to be an expert!), and create tempting listings for our eBay customers, and once they have sold, get them packed up and ready to meet their new owner.

Whether you could help for a few hours, or even a day or two, contact us to book in for a friendly taster session, where you will learn more about the volunteer role.

Please note - we do have a minimum age requirement of 18. We regret that we cannot proceed with your application if you are not yet 18.
