Change the food system for the better, work with us at our veg scheme co-operative

Veg Box People and Manchester Veg People are two co-operative organisations that work closely together to deliver a model of a more sustainable and fairer food system for Greater Manchester.

We need someone who shares our passion to create better food systems to help us consolidate both businesses. You will need to be an all-rounder as we also share much of the work we do, but we are particularly looking for someone to join the team who has strong administrative skills with experience and confidence of working with spread sheets and quickbooks (or similar software).

Your typical week would include collating orders (both from restaurants and for our weekly veg and fruit bags), placing orders with our suppliers, general administration of the business (including managing stock, invoicing and emailing customers and suppliers) and packing our lovely veg, which will give you the hands on experience to help you explain why our products are so much better than anyone else’s. While it may not be one of your regular tasks, you will need to be able to drive the delivery vehicle and know the delivery routes, to be able to provide cover for other members of the team.

Veg Box People is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. We welcome applications from individuals across a diverse range of cultures, genders, ethnicities and lifestyles.

Further details are included in the job description and application form which are available to download below. Please send completed application forms to mail@kindling.org.uk by 19th April 2019.
