North Hobart Shop

This is Uniting's first Tasmanian Op Shop and we're excited to show it off!

Want to join the team at a new Op Shop in a vibrant retail strip? 

We are flexible and work to accommodate busy volunteers. Ideally you'll be available 1-2 days per week for full day or half day shifts. If you like people, customer service, merchandising, fashion, have an interest in the environment and learning new skills – any or all the above – then contact us!

What is it like to work in the Op Shop? “Each day is different — I could be hanging and tagging donated items, working on the register, sorting items or clearing shelves that need to be dusted. Lunchtime is always busy, so while we potter about, we focus on greeting people as they walk into the shop.

What I like most about helping out here is the variety — both in the people who visit the shop and those who work here, as well as the amazing range of items that are donated to us. There is never a dull moment and I’m grateful we all get along really well — even when we’re under the pump. We all support each other to deal with some of our more challenging customers — we know that working together is the best way to get through the day and no-one is expected to do anything they are uncomfortable with.” – Op Shop Team Member
