Ten years on from its inception, Wansbeck Valley Food Bank has become the largest independent food bank in Northumberland. In that time, it has channeled food to the value of over £1 million to those in need.
Such is the size and scale of the foodbank’s operation that we are looking to build more resilience and sustainability within our salaried administration structure.
We are looking for talented people who share our passion to join our team in helping those in our community who face the reality of food poverty.
The roles advertised below will be at the heart of this vital work, and if you share our vision then we want to hear from you.
