Are you looking for a career with a real purpose and meaning, where you can add value and make an enormous difference to the lives of local people?

Are you passionate about sustainable shopping, selling good quality second-hand goods especially furniture and fashion?

Previous experience of charity retail is NOT essential, but you will enjoy working in a customer facing environment such as customer service, retail or front of house, be people focused and wish to hold a key role within the shop team.

The role is physical, demanding and very rewarding as our shop teams are the link between the Hospice and our supporters and local community.

Due to the nature of this role in a hospice setting, we need to carry out an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check (DBS) if you are appointed.

You must have existing right to work in the UK for this role.

This video has been filmed with clinical care team members but we think it gives you a great idea what it’s like to work in a hospice in a non-clinical role too!

Interview date: Thursday 26th November 2026
