speculative
applications
If we do not currently have any relevant vacancies we would still be delighted to hear from you and what skills you have to offer; we shall keep your details for any appropriate jobs that may arise in future.
For some roles we are particularly interested in advanced language skills – French, Cantonese and Spanish are currently on our list. We are also interested in hearing from anyone with copywriting, web editing and project management skills and experience.
In that case, please e-mail jobs@cafedirect.co.uk with the subject line “Why I’d love to work for Cafédirect” explaining why in a covering letter and attaching a copy of your CV. It is a pre-requisite that you have a work permit allowing you to work in the United Kingdom.
If we do receive a speculative application we regret that we may not be able to respond immediately but shall make contact if an appropriate opportunity arises.
volunteering
We would be very interested to hear from people who would like to volunteer with Cafédirect. The peak period is leading up to and during Fairtrade Fortnight, usually held in late February and early March in the UK, but we would like to hear from you at any time.
Please e-mail jobs@cafedirect.co.uk with the subject line “Why I’d love to volunteer for Cafédirect” explaining in a covering letter what you have to offer and what you would like to get out of volunteering with us and attaching a copy of your CV.
We require a minimum commitment of one month and it is a pre-requisite that you have a good working knowledge of English; once again having Spanish language skills as well is a big plus.
internships
We do not have a regular programme for interns: if specific opportunities arise we shall advertise them under current vacancies.
