Summary

The role involves liaising with local supermarkets to arrange food drive dates and coordinating volunteers to staff them.

Detailed description

Are you organised, friendly, and keen to make a real impact in your community? We’re looking for a Food Drive Coordinator to help run our vital supermarket food collections.


In this role, you’ll:

  • Liaise with local supermarkets to arrange collection dates
  • Organise volunteers from our existing team (and recruit extra support when needed)
  • Oversee the smooth running of food drives, ensuring everyone feels confident and supported


You’ll gain valuable experience in event coordination, volunteer management, and community engagement — skills that are useful in many areas of work and life. You’ll also join a supportive team and know that your efforts are directly helping to provide food for people in crisis.


By giving around half a day each week, you’ll be playing a key role in keeping our foodbank shelves stocked and ensuring no one in our community goes hungry.

About Gloucester Foodbank

We don’t think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry. That’s why we provide three days’ nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people who are referred to us in crisis. We are part of a nationwide network of foodbanks, supported by The Trussell Trust, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK.
