Smart Works Birmingham - Vinted Volunteer
About Smart Works Birmingham
Smart Works Birmingham is a charity that exists to empower unemployed women into work through the provision of high quality interview clothing and one to one interview coaching.
Last year, Smart Works Birmingham helped 890 women into employment and we hope to increase this to 1000 women in 2026.
About the opportunity
As a charity, Smart Works sells clothing as part of the fundraising efforts. Our clothing is generously donated from the public, corporate organisations and our retail partners such as Hush, Scamp & Dude, Whistles, Hobbs and many more. Anything that is not interview or work appropriate we sell at our in-person pop up events or online via Vinted.
Smart Works Birmingham is looking for volunteers to oversee and manage their vinted online selling page.
To establish and manage this project, we ideally would like a commitment of 1 day per week at our centre. We are open Monday – Friday only.
Tasks would include:
- Photographing and listing items on our Smart Works Birmingham vinted page.
- Taking care to note any faults, imperfections or unique selling points of each item.
- Reply to messages on vinted and accept/decline offers.
- Once items have been sold, package and post these items at local drop off points.
- Organise and maintain the ‘vinted corner’ of the stock room, ensuring anything that is listed is easily accessed for posting.
