Supervisor Erikshjälpen Second Hand Lund

Would you like to help ensure children’s rights are upheld by leading the day-to-day operations of our store? Then this role is for you. We look forward to receiving your application!

Description of the project

Erikshjälpen Västerbro, located at Lund , is expanding through new partnerships and is therefore now seeking two Supervisors for our store. One position is a permanent position and the other is a temporary position; both are available to start as agreed.

The store currently has an operations manager, an assistant operations manager, a volunteer coordinator, and seven supervisors, along with a large number of dedicated employees. We now need to add one supervisor position at the store and fill a temporary position.

As a supervisor, you’ll be hands-on and lead the day-to-day operations in the store and the food preparation area to ensure that established profit, social, and environmental goals are met. No two days are alike; as a supervisor, we expect you to be both flexible and enjoy a varied work environment.

The store at Lund in Västerbro is operated in partnership with the Pentecostal Church at Lund.
