Operate tools and machinery safely and responsibly, ensuring proper use of PPE and materials.
Maintain equipment and workspace to high standards.
Respond to customer queries and emergencies with care and professionalism.
Support and guide volunteers, fostering a positive and inclusive environment.

We’ll work with you to make any necessary changes.

All of our jobs can be considered on a part time, flexible or job share basis.

We operate a Guaranteed Interview Scheme for disabled applicants who meet the minimum criteria for the role. You are considered disabled under the Equality Act 2010 if you have a physical or mental impairment that has a substantial and long-term negative effect on your ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities. We recognise not everyone who is classified as disabled under the Equality Act personally identifies this way, or with this definition of disability. Please do not let this discourage you from applying under the scheme.
