The St Vincent de Paul Society Canberra/Goulburn has been serving the local community since 1924. We are a charity offering a ‘hand up’ to people in need, regardless of their creed, ethnic, social background, health, gender or political opinion. We do this by respecting peoples' dignity, sharing our hope and by encouraging people to take control of their own destiny. We help people in a large geographic surrounding the ACT - to Lake Cargelligo in the west, across the Snowy Mountains to Tumut, down to Eden, up to Batemans Bay and inland to Crookwell. The Society’s services are the result of the combined effort of our members, volunteers and employees.
All about our Position
The Society has 27 Vinnies Centres that provide retail services and support to people in need. This vacancy is based at Tuggeranong for 60 hours per fortnight with rotating weekend shifts.

This position has high level manual handling - unpacking, sorting, packing, loading, unloading, pricing, stock transfers and assisting people who are donating goods. You must be physically fit as this role requires a lot of manual handling, be very organised and self motivated to complete what needs to be done in a timely manner. A drivers licence is essential as you may be required to transport stock to our warehouse @ Mitchell.
