Volunteer Produce Manager Sought
RSVP of Snohomish County
A local foodbank has a need for a Produce Manager. It's important for food bank clients to have fresh fruits and vegetables. You would be responsible for setting up the produce so it is available to clients going through the food bank. This means moving back stock from the cooler to the staging racks and from the staging racks to where the clients can reach it.
There is a mix of math and art in this job. Each item needs a sign with the name of the item and quantity available to each client. This can change with the amount of produce on hand and number of clients anticipated to be served. You might have to swap out one item for another as stock is exhausted and replenished with something different.
When the food bank closes you would put away leftover produce and make sure nothing is left on the floor. It is required that you can lift 40 pounds, be fit enough to bend, stand, reach and crouch if needed.
There is training provided and then you are encouraged to take this job and make it your own.
Time(s) are - Monday 8am-Noon, Tuesday 2-7pm, Friday 8am-Noon. You can pick just one day or do all three!
