From our office or warehouse
Volunteering alongside our dynamic and driven Bristol and Hammersmith based teams has never been more exciting as we re-emerge to in person teams. They are working hard on key projects, exciting innovation and getting stuff done. Joining them means being part of something special.
Right now, we’ll only be advertising roles here that absolutely cannot be done from home. For the roles where we invite you into one of our locations, we will provide full training and support to ensure that you feel safe and confident in your volunteering environment and you can be assured that we are following strict guidance to keep our locations COVID safe.
If you’re interested in volunteering from home check out the roles we have available from home.
This role will be based at our Warehouse in Filton, Bristol BS34 7JU.
Do you have a passion for sustainable fashion and a keen eye for styling items in an innovative and attractive way to generate maximum interest?
Would you love the opportunity to develop and manage a Depop store and get a real buzz knowing that you are helping to ensure that we can be there for children and young people with cancer? If so, this is the perfect role for you and we can’t wait to meet you!
We are looking for a dedicated volunteer to coordinate with our celebrity and trading teams to help select suitable items from our donated stock, style them and take eye-catching photos and then list them in a creative and attractive way in a Depop store which they will be responsible for creating and managing.
What you’ll be doing
We’re new to Depop so we’re looking for someone who understands the Depop marketplace and can maximise the opportunities the platform creates.
We’ll be asking you to get involved and get creative with the following:
- Supporting the general development of our Depop account
- Put your own creative stamp on how we use the platform to its highest potential
- Research and value items that we receive in our warehouse
- Communicate with our shop teams and help them to identify the perfect items for Depop, that may include developing some guidance for what items work well on the platform
- Styling and coordinating items to ensure they look appealing to our customers
- Preparing items and photographing them in an eye-catching and appealing way
- Writing creative and accurate product descriptions
You will need to understand sustainable fashion and the digital marketplace and if you have experience of the Depop platform that would be great although this is not essential.
You will be creative, have a keen eye for detail and have an interest in fashion, styling and photography. Good written and verbal communication skills are required for this role.
We are looking for a volunteer who can commit to at least 1 day per week (10am-4pm) and can be flexible in relation to your other commitments.
We will provide full training in the role and the support of a dedicated Volunteer Manager. Please fill in the form below to apply!
