inHope’s South and East Bristol Foodbank team provides vital support to people experiencing food insecurity. Operating across seven outlets, the Foodbank provided food parcels to feed 7,441 people in the last year, alongside offering support and advice. The Foodbank is affiliated to the Trussell Trust and has an ambition to end the need for people to use foodbanks, by giving them the tools to maximise their income and minimise their household costs, whilst also providing emergency support where needed.
We are looking for a temporary Foodbank Admin Officer to join inHope’s Foodbank team, during a period of peak demand, to support the efficient operation of the Foodbank’s administration. This role will be the first point of contact for enquiries from clients or referrers, responding to emails and phone calls and escalating to managers as appropriate. This varied role also includes supporting the team with the administration of its day-to-day operations, including food collections, monitoring stock and updating donors of gaps in supplies. Experience of administration would be beneficial but is not essential.
