• Merchandising donated books to increase sales potential - you can even use your creativity for a window display!

Desirable Skills:

• Have an enthusiasm for reading and a love of books
• Ability to work collaboratively as part of a team
• Attention to detail and willingness to learn new skills
• A positive and friendly disposition

What this role can offer you:

• Oxfam volunteers benefit in lots of ways. You will be joining over 23,000 volunteers to show "we won't live with poverty".
