Cakey Buffet Creators - Baking & Kitchen Volunteers required at Rānui House and the new Rānui Apartments

Organisation:
Bone Marrow Cancer Trust
Location:
Central
Category:
Health & Medical
Hours:
Working Hours

Location: Rānui House & Rānui Apartments in Central Christchurch
Days: Tuesday, Thursday, Friday or over the weekend (you choose!)

Love baking and making people smile? We’re on the lookout for one or two superstar volunteers to join our kitchen crew at Rānui House or in our brand-new Glasson Family Kitchen at Rānui Apartments.

You’ll be whipping up delicious treats for our famous Cakey Buffet - think cookies, slices, muffins and all things yummy! As your creations bake, the irresistible aromas drift through the House, drawing in families who pop down for a chat and a taste of home.

This role is all about heart, connection and good humour. You’ll be someone who enjoys chatting with people from all walks of life whether that’s a patient, a family member or one of our team. A positive outlook, great initiative and a dash of fun will see you fit right in.

You’ll also help us keep our kitchen clean, tidy and well-stocked with baked delights that provide comfort to families after long days at the hospital. Ideally, you’ll have some baking or general cooking experience and feel confident in the kitchen.

Before joining the team we ask all volunteers to complete an application, reference checks, a Police Vetting check and a volunteer agreement.
Then it’s time for our warm Rānui welcome - a 1.5-hour onboarding with our House Manager and CEO. You’ll get a full tour, meet the team, learn the ropes and receive your Volunteer Handbook.

If you’ve got a love of baking, a kind heart and a few spare hours each week we’d love to have you as part of the Rānui whānau.

Apply now and help spread a little sweetness to those who need it most.
