- Manage the receipt and storage of donated goods from the general public, whilst also processing all stock according to The Salvation Army policies and procedures.
- Provide direct supervision of all aspects of the operations of the Thrift Shop for example: ensuring all sales are processed through the cash register correctly, keeping a daily reconciliation of cash flow with cash register dockets, reporting on variance.
- Recruit, select and induct new shop personnel in accordance with The Salvation Army policies and procedures.
- This is a full-time permanent position, located at our Marion store, Adelaide.
