We're looking for a Shop Manager with a passion for sustainable fashion to join our team in Bath!
We want to bring the wonders of charity shops back to our high-street and we need driven and passionate people to get us there!
About Us
Save the Children UK believes every child deserves a future. In the UK and around the world, we work every day to give children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. When crisis strikes, and children are most vulnerable, we are always among the first to respond and the last to leave. We ensure children's unique needs are met and their voices are heard. We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach.
About the Role
Located in Bath, this is a busy shop in a brilliant location, with a vibrant community! As Shop Manager, you'll be leading the volunteer team, as well as focusing on further recruitment to grow our volunteer team and building strong connections within the local community to ensure the shop's continued success.
About You
You will be someone with exceptional people skills, a leader who understands the importance of community and enjoys supporting people to exercise similar passions through volunteering.
You'll bring:
- Proven experience leading and motivating teams, ideally having managed volunteers, or a retail team previously
- A strong understanding of what good looks like in a busy and successful community-led shop, ideally with some experience within Retail or a clear passion for sustainable fashion and knowledge of products and trends
- A can-do attitude and ability to approach challenges in a positive way, knowing when to reach out for support and guidance where you need it.
Previous charity retail experience is ideal, but not essential. If you have transferable leadership skills or experience managing volunteers in other settings and are looking for a new challenge, we'd love to hear from you!
Ways of Working: On-site – this role will be based in the Bath shop. We're looking for someone able to work 5 days (35 hours) per week to include some weekend working.
Please note: To avoid disappointment, you are advised to submit your application as soon as possible as we reserve the right to close the vacancy early if a high volume of applications are received. This is to ensure that we can manage application levels whilst maintaining a positive candidate experience. Unfortunately once a vacancy has closed, we are unable to consider further applications.
Ways of Working:
The majority of our roles can be performed remotely in the UK, but there are likely to be times when you will be required to come to your contracted office (up to 2-4 days per month or 6-8 days per quarter). This will be agreed with your Line Manager and team and is intended to be time spent on collaborating with colleagues and relationship building.
Please note: travel costs to your contracted office will be at your own expense.
Flexible Working - We are happy to discuss flexible working options at interview.
Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion:
Save the Children UK believes in a world that is fair, inclusive and equitable where all children have the opportunity to change their world. We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think.
We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT+ or in an LGBT+ family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world. This is the reason why we are all here.

Falmouth & Exeter Students’ Union
Chief Executive Officer
Salary: £63,000-£65,000
Location: Falmouth and Penryn, Cornwall
Contract: Full time
Are you looking for a role as an ambitious and collaborative leader, passionate about student experience? If so, we’re looking for a visionary leader who work closely with our elected officers, trustees and other stakeholders to progress our strategy and long-term sustainability of the Students’ Union.
About the Students’ Union
We exist to represent over 8,000 of our members who are based mainly in Cornwall, but additionally we have a growing number of online and partnership students. Two-thirds of these are Falmouth University students and the remainder are from the University of Exeter. We are almost unique in the UK in serving two student cohorts from different universities some of whom share a campus. This presents an unusually complex context within which to exercise leadership. The students’ union operates across three sites. The Falmouth campus in the centre of town is solely for Falmouth’s Arts students, while Exeter’s medical students are based at a site in Truro. The Penryn campus is where most students are based and its successful operation is heavily reliant on a partnership between the two universities, FX Plus, a services company which delivers many of the central services on campus and the students’ union. The new CEO will have well-developed stakeholder management skills and the ability to engage effectively with complex partnerships in the interests of our students.
About the role
The Chief Executive will provide visionary leadership to ensure the long-term sustainability and strategic development of the Students’ Union (SU). Under the direction of the Board of Trustees, the Chief Executive will drive the performance, development, and financial health of the SU, aligning its operations with its mission, vision, and values. This role requires fostering a collaborative and inclusive culture, supporting and empowering elected student leaders, and maintaining strong relationships with key stakeholders across Falmouth University and the University of Exeter as well as, FX Plus and the wider community.
The Chief Executive will work day-to-day with full-time and part-time elected student officers to communicate and implement the SU’s strategy and priorities effectively. The SU serves a diverse student membership from both universities studying in Cornwall. These students, although from different universities, share their university experience outside the lecture and seminar rooms, making it essential to enhance their overall student life and community engagement.
Additionally, the Chief Executive will lead strategic planning, implement effective governance, and enhance the internal and external reputation of the SU, ensuring it meets the needs of its diverse membership and key stakeholders.
We're a democratic, membership organisation and all students at the are automatically members of the Union. Overall legal responsibility for the Students' Union rests with our Board of Trustees which is made up of four full-time Sabbatical Officers, four student trustees and three external trustees. The Sabbatical officers are elected each year by, and from, the student membership of the University. They take a year out of their studies (or immediately after graduating) to take on a fulltime paid staff role and to serve as a trustee.
Closing Date: Tuesday 27th August 8am
First Stage Interviews (Remote): Monday 2nd September
Final Interviews (In-person at the Penryn campus): Wednesday 11th September
