• A Level 2 Food Hygiene certificate (desirable)
• Confidence with basic IT and POS systems.
• A positive, community-minded attitude.
• Ideally, some experience working with volunteers or in a charity setting.

This role would suit someone who enjoys building connections, values flexibility, and is available during daytime hours on weekdays.

What we offer:

• A meaningful and rewarding role where you truly make a difference
• A friendly, inclusive and supportive team culture
• Access to our on-site facilities – including our gym and community cookery school
• Free parking at our Healthy Living Centre, Farm House Rise, Exminster
• Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) – 24/7 confidential support for mental, emotional, and financial wellbeing
• Employee discount scheme - savings on everyday shopping, dining and more
• Buy additional annual leave - flexible options to suit your lifestyle
• Wellbeing days - extra time off to rest, recharge and focus on your health
• Join a charity that puts people first - both in the community and within the team.

Westbank is an inclusive employer, welcoming applicants from all backgrounds.
