Get the work experience you need, by volunteering for emmaus Sheffield!
If you're between jobs or perhaps looking for your first ever position then you should seriously think about a volunteer work placement at emmaus. You can help us and we can help you!
Employers are always looking for people who are reliable, have drive and initiative, can show commitment and are honest and conscientious. How better to prove you are that person than building up a track record of work experience than volunteering for us at emmaus and demonstrate you're the type of person who would rather fill their time and gain new skills volunteering for a charity rather than simply sitting at home scouring the newspapers and internet for a job.
We have opportunities for you to gain valuable experience in retail, recycling, gardening and driving. But we don't just sell clothes. We sell furniture, electricals and all sorts of things. We have a Housing Services team who do contract work for housing associations clearing, cleaning and painting properties and maintaining gardens. Many of our volunteers go on to gain full time employment thanks to the experience and skills they've gained with us and a solid job reference.
If you're interested in a career working with the homeless or within the retail or housing sector, maybe you're retired and want to fill some time or perhaps you want to get out and meet people and make new friends? If so then we want to hear from you.
As a Volunteer, we will give you all the necessary information and training that you require to do your job. You will be given continuous support and we will pay you 'out of pocket' expenses where you travel to the Community by public transport or a small amount per mile to cover your fuel if you travel by car.
Ring Graham, our Deputy Community Manager now on 0114 272 0677, or use our contact form.
