• Volunteer Leadership: Recruit, train, schedule, and encourage 2–3 volunteers per shift (10 AM–2 PM / 2 PM–6 PM), delegating responsibilities across cash processing, customer service, and donation sorting.

• Guest Voucher Administration: Process guest applications for the EFM Clothing Voucher Program, balancing compassionate ministry care with clear, assertive boundary enforcement to protect program integrity.

• Donation Logistics: Oversee and assist with the transit of donated items between our nearby church donation hub and the thrift store.

• A committed Christian who agrees with EFM’s Statement of Faith and demonstrates Christ-like character, integrity, and warmth in speech and action.

• 3+ years of retail supervisory or store management experience (experience directing non-profit or volunteer teams is a huge plus!).

• Assertive Empathy: Outstanding customer service skills with the emotional wisdom to engage diverse store demographics—showing genuine compassion to guests while holding firm, professional boundaries on store policies and voucher applications.

• Proactive Initiative: A self-starter who naturally takes ownership during downtime to build online sales channels and streamline operations.

• Logistics & Physical Capability: Ability to lift up to 35 lbs (boxes, totes, racks) and hold a valid Driver's License to manage donation transit between locations. High school diploma or GED required.
