You will be helping the three Volunteer Directors with tasks that keep the Market running. Tasks range from backroom administration relating to employment, payroll, record-keeping, and accounts, through to practical tasks such as supervising market set-up and take-down. Our aim is to ensure we have at least two team members familiar with each regular task so we can share the load and cross-cover in the event of time away or illness.
What are the benefits?
The volunteer role brings a real sense of fulfillment through direct involvement with the running of a business devoted to benefiting the local community. It will expand your experience through hands-on involvement with a community-led, sustainability-minded Community Interest Company. You will be part of a friendly and positive team comprising fellow volunteers, paid staff, and appreciative market traders.
