We’re looking for an Online Sales Assistant Volunteer to join the Cairn Centre team.

We’re looking for someone who enjoys finding good items, taking photos, researching products and selling online. You’ll help us make the most of the donations we receive by listing items on platforms such as Vinted, eBay and our online shop.

The role could include:

• Finding quality, higher-value items
• Photographing and researching products
• Creating listings and responding to enquiries
• Dealing with offers and reviews
• Packing items ready for posting

You don’t need to be an expert. We’ll provide training and support, and the hours are flexible.

It’s a great opportunity to learn new skills, gain experience in online retail and, most importantly, help raise funds to support the work of the Cairn Centre and people across Fife.

Interested? Get in touch with our team by emailing [email protected]

We’d love to hear from you.

Great to see Trust in Fife - Cairn Centre getting a Network story with Circular Communities Scotland. Another great achievement for the shop!

Explore Scotland's community reuse sector with our Circular Communities Scotland Network Stories.

This month we're celebrating Trust in Fife - Cairn Centre, which has recently launched it's first online shop.

The website launch was reported in The Courier, which spoke to Caroline McCall, CEO of Trust in Fife:

“Getting the store online is something that’s been a vision of mine for a long, long time, but until recently we never really had the capacity or the manpower to be able to do it.”

“Our aim is to offer great quality and great value. Because of that we get a lot of turnaround. As items don’t tend to stay in stock too long the online store is the perfect way to keep up to date with what we have and find what you’re looking for.”

Moving from a traditional shop to operating online as well can be a daunting process, but Trust in Fife has shown how it can be done. Every purchase from the Cairn Centre, both in person and online, supports local homelessness.
