Katie joined the Emmaus Bristol team in January 2023. Read Katie’s story to discover what goes on behind the scenes in our eBay team…
“I work in the eBay office, so I’m supporting Julian who is the Online & Retail Manager. My role is to get more listings on eBay so we can get items sold, packaged up and safely distributed to customers.
Everyone at Emmaus Bristol is so friendly and helpful. I feel like I can ask anyone if I have a question or if I’m struggling with something. People at Emmaus Bristol are very approachable, which made a huge difference when I started the role.
I wanted to work at Emmaus Bristol for two reasons. The role and eBay side of things tied in so well with my past experience and I’ve bought items from charity shops all my life so loved the idea of working for a charity. I didn’t know anything about Emmaus before applying but quickly discovered the very important and worthwhile work that is done here. It feels good to be part of it.
My favourite thing about working at Emmaus Bristol is the people. Emmaus is truly somewhere that does make a difference in people’s lives, and everyone here very much believes in the work we do. We’re all aiming for the same goal and working together to achieve it, which is very motivating for everyone involved.”
