The Shakespeare Hospice, based in Stratford upon Avon, offers a diverse range of services across South Warwickshire and surrounding areas. Patients and their families/carers can access one or more specialised services: day hospice, hospice at home, adult and children's counselling for pre and post bereavement, and spiritual, emotional and complementary therapies.  We pride our offer as one that is all inclusive and embraces not only the patient but their complete support system, family and loved ones.

The Hospice has seven charity shops and an active online presence, selling a variety of new and donated quality goods.  Profits raised from our shops play a vital role in our income generation activities, helping us to generate the £3 million per year it costs to deliver our services.

The Shakespeare Hospice retail team is looking for a reliable and enthusiastic Van Driver/Assistant to join our team based at our Avenue Farm Furniture Shop.

The role involves collecting and delivering donated goods, supporting our retail shops, and assisting with moving stock and furniture.  You'll be representing the Hospice in the community, so a friendly manner and good customer service skills are essential.

A full UK driving licence and the ability to handle heavy lifting are required.  Previous experience in a similar role is an advantage but not essential.

If you would like to be part of a dedicated team and make a difference to those needing our support, then we would love to hear from you.
