Seeking Op Shop volunteer drivers in Tauranga, can you help? ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿšš

The Team from SPCA Tauranga - Centre & Op Shops

We have recently moved our van from Taupo to Tauranga, and are looking for reliable volunteer drivers to help with routine pick ups and drop offs of furniture (7 days a week) with flexibility in hours shared between multiple drivers ๐Ÿ›๏ธ๐Ÿ›‹๏ธ๐Ÿช‘

The route will be based daily between our three SPCA Op Shops in Tauranga, but will also require support with wider SPCA Op Shops in the Central East area every few weeks (such as Taupo and Rotorua).

If this sounds like you, we would love to hear from you! To apply, please visit: www.spca.nz...
