We hire out mobility scooters and wheelchairs to those with limited mobility
We are a charity operating from a portacabin in the St Mary’s Way Car Park in Melton – the one behind the Bell Centre, and we need an extra body to support our efforts. We are open on Tuesdays 9.30 – 15.00, Fridays and Saturdays 9.30 – 12.30.
There is minimal admin but what there is needs to be done accurately and involving a little computer work. The key attribute is a little bit of physical ooomph to get the scooters in and out of the store and sometimes helping a customer load a scooter into their car. We have a ramp to move scooters in and out of the store but sometimes they may need a little bit of ‘motivation’ to align them up properly so that you can get the doors shut.
You will ned to live in Melton as occasionally there may be a need to pop in on a non work day to receive or issue a scooter that has been booked.
So, you will be reasonably fit but not a slave to the treadmill, you will be a bit flexible on days of work but everything will be agreed in advance or on a ‘can do if needed’ basis. And you will be part of a very small and almost perfectly formed team ie we are just missing you 😉
