Join the Oxfam community

As a PAT Tester Specialist Volunteer, you will help our friendly shop team by ensuring the electrical equipment that we sell is safe. From old and rare to new and unusual, we get a bit of everything in our shops and that’s why it’s such a great place to volunteer. Best of all you’ll be raising vital funds to support people facing poverty around the world.

About this role

As this is a specialist role, we hope you already have a passion for all things electrical. But we’ll give you all the training and support you need to develop your skills as part of our team. You don’t need to have any retail experience – we’ve got you covered. You can also get some lunch and travel costs too.

  • PAT Testing electrical stock ensuring it is safe to sell
  • Volunteering alongside experienced team members

You can keep busy behind the scenes, PAT Testing equipment. Or maybe you’d like to be on the shop floor, keeping the shelves full and talking with our fantastic customers. Whatever works for you.

Along with learning all about this role, you can branch out and try other things. Whether it’s about the shop floor or behind the scenes, we will help you to learn as many skills as you want.

Volunteering that works for you

Volunteering can be very flexible to suit you. So even if your availability or skills don’t match this role, get in touch and we will find something right for you. By volunteering for a few hours a week, you will meet new people and have some fun for a good cause.

If you can’t apply online, please visit the shop or contact us on givetime@oxfam.org.uk

What happens next?

After you apply the manager will ask you to come in for an initial chat. This is not an interview, just a chance to get an idea of what you'd like to do in the shop. From there you can meet the rest of the volunteer team and get involved with whatever area of the shop takes your interest!
