We pride our offer as one that is all inclusive and embraces not only the patient but their complete support system, family and loved ones.

The shop, which also operates a Donation Station and offers a Furniture Collection and Delivery Service, has an excellent reputation locally and has just celebrated its 10th year anniversary.

Our ideal candidate will have previous retail management experience, with a sharp business mind-set and be willing to be an active and leading presence on the shop floor. This role will be hands-on and require manual handling of large furniture items. You will have excellent organisational, planning and problem solving skills, knowledge of the relevant health and safety practices and have high quality people management skills. If you would like to be part of a dedicated team and make a difference to those needing our support, then we would love to hear from you.
