About Shelter:

A home is a fundamental human need, as essential as education or healthcare. Yet millions of people across Britain struggle on a daily basis with homelessness, bad housing conditions, soaring rents, discrimination and the threat of eviction. So, we are striving for change, with individuals, in communities, across society, and leading the way to a safe home. We need ambitious, bestinclass individuals who are passionate about our cause to join us at this exciting time. This is your chance to play a part in the fundamental change we are striving to achieve.
At Shelter we are united by our purpose to defend the right to a safe home. Our enemy is the social injustice at the core of the escalating housing emergency. We believe that to win that fight, we must be representative of the people we are here to help and those who support our movement for change. In all our people decisions, we take pride in being inclusive, fair, equitable and transparent.
We have committed to combat racism both within and outside Shelter and welcome you on our journey to becoming a truly antiracist organisation.

About the team:

It's an exciting time to be joining Shelter. There's a lot of change happening following the launch of our new brand, which has repositioned the organisation and set the base for us to tackle what has grown from a housing crisis to a national emergency. We currently run a network of around 90 community charity shops across the UK from small boutiques to large furniture shops. Our online offering has grown rapidly over the past two years, with significant turnover during the Christmas peak, success in the launch and promotion of new goods, plus the launch of our secondhand online shop and we're planning to expand further in the near future.

About the role:

Based within the E-Commerce hub at our Boutique Shop in Finchley Road, NW3, this is a great opportunity not only to see ecommerce in action, but to help deliver an ecommerce strategy, grow Shelter's sales of secondhand goods and raise income to tackle the housing emergency. Daytoday, you'll be instrumental in supporting the E-Commerce Hub Manager and local area shops to maximise the hub's financial contribution to support the work of Shelter through the effective management of volunteer, stock and premises. We'll also rely on you to provide efficient warehouse operations and customer order processes for our online shop and help ensure a safe, clean and bright environment in which to work. Put simply, you'll play a big part in all aspects of our ecommerce operations, including ensuring they're efficient and delivery focused and that volunteers feel motivated.
We are happy to talk about flexible working, personal growth, and to promote a workplace where you can be yourself and achieve success based only on your merit.

Benefits:

Safeguarding is everyone's business. Shelter is committed to protecting the health, wellbeing and human rights of those we support, and enabling them to live free from harm, abuse and neglect.
