The routes to joining OWR are two-fold. We regularly advertise job vacancies on this page and post volunteering and work experience opportunities.
We’re focussed day to day on running a wood recycling service and operating a trade outlet for reclaimed timber. There are many activities within these work areas and as the enterprise develops there are often opportunities for people with diverse skills and experience. We especially seek to support people towards employment who face barriers to working due to managing their health or a disability, and take referrals from partner organisations specialising in mental health, homelessness, disability, social justice and refugees. However, we welcome applications for volunteering or job roles from everyone.
We are currently recruiting for the following positions: (Click on each link for the Job Description and how to apply).
