**About the Family Stores**

Our nationwide network of over 130 Family Stores sell a range of quality donated goods, ranging from clothing, furniture, linen and homeware.

This role is critical to our stores success and primarily responsible for providing our customers and donors alike with an excellent experience that leads to repeat visits.

We are looking for a customer service all-rounder, with a keen eye for detail and an ability to work in a fast paced, high stock volume retail environment.

- As part of the team, ensure the store is well presented, well stocked and tidy
- Ensuring compliance with policies and standard operating procedures, including health and safety and audit controls
- Contribute to a positive team culture and general duties of the Family Stores as required

**Person specification**:

- Excellent customer service skills, with sound judgement and the ability to de-escalate situations if necessary
- Resilient, positive and people-oriented team player with a natural ability to relate to people from diverse backgrounds
- Physically fit and capable of regular lifting - this is a daily part of the role
- Capable of using various retail and communications technology
- Self-managing, able to keep to task and re-prioritise as required whilst under pressure
- A clear communicator, both verbally and written
- An ethical approach to working in a respectful, honest and transparent way to build trust across the family stores, upholding the values of The Salvation Army

**Our offer to you**:

- A position within a long-standing, respected nationwide organisation
- Opportunities for growth and development
- A varied and fast paced role
- Enthusiastic team of likeminded people
- The chance to make a difference in your community
- A friendly, fun team to work with
- A set monthly roster
- Free confidential counselling services to support your wellbeing
- Subsidised flu vaccinations

**Hours of work**: This role is a **casual role **through the Central and East Auckland area. Please note, Family stores operate on some public holidays.

**The starting salary** for this role will be an **hourly rate of $26.**
