Cornwall Air Ambulance is hiring in Truro, Bodmin and Camborne

Every sale in a Cornwall Air Ambulance shop helps keep a red helicopter in the sky over Cornwall. Now the charity is looking for people to run those shops.

Cornwall Air Ambulance has three retail jobs open in Truro, Bodmin and Camborne, and promises a role where no two days are the same. The closing date for all three is this Friday (30 October).

The charity says it wants people with great people skills, a positive attitude and a passion for retail and for making a difference.

The three roles on offer

Charity Shop Manager, Truro

This is a full-time post of 37.5 hours a week, paid £27,500 (FTE). The manager will lead the Truro shop, drive sales, develop a team of staff and volunteers, give customers an excellent experience and keep the shop looking its best.

The charity is after a motivated leader with a passion for retail, community engagement and delivering results.

Deputy Charity Shop Manager, Bodmin

The Bodmin role is 22.5 hours a week, with a salary of £26,240.76 FTE. The deputy will support the Charity Shop Manager in driving sales, inspiring volunteers, delivering customer service and keeping the shop welcoming.

Assistant Superstore Manager, Camborne

Over at the Camborne Superstore, the assistant manager role is full time at 37.5 hours a week, including Saturday working, with a salary of £26,240.76. The job involves supporting the Shop Manager, helping customers, managing stock and keeping the shop tidy.

No retail experience is needed for this one. The charity says a passion for customer service, a positive attitude and a willingness to learn matter more.

What comes with the job

Staff at Cornwall Air Ambulance get:

• 28 days’ holiday FTE, plus bank holidays
• A 6% employer pension contribution
• Enhanced sickness absence pay
• An Employee Assistance Programme
• Life insurance
• Optical eye care vouchers
• A Cycle to Work Scheme
• Volunteering leave

How to apply

Applicants need to fill in the charity’s application form before the deadline this Friday (30 October).

Full job descriptions are available for the Bodmin deputy manager role and the Camborne assistant manager role, with details of the Truro post on the Cornwall Air Ambulance vacancies page.

The same page also lists a face-to-face lottery canvasser role working in towns and villages across Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. That job is employed by fundraising partner LFS rather than the charity, and is advertised on the LFS recruitment site.

For anyone who would rather give their time, the charity says it always welcomes volunteers across its shops, events and other areas.
