Good for the planet, great for our community. Re-Source is a Hawke’s Bay charity that gives quality household items a second life by connecting them with people experiencing hardship and organisations that support the community.
With resources stretched across our region, we use a referral system to reach those in need. Reducing waste and strengthening community connections helps build a more sustainable and resilient Hawke’s Bay.
As one of our van drivers you’ll make a difference with every trip - delivering targeted support on behalf of front line services and making everyday generosity go further.
What is the role?
As the friendly face of Re-Source on the road, you'll be at the heart of our operations. This is a hands-on role where you will:
• Collect generously donated items from local homes and businesses.
• Deliver essential furniture and household goods to people in our community.
• Safely load and unload the van, ensuring items are handled with care.
• Connect with donors and recipients, representing the warm and helpful spirit of Re-Source.
This role is perfect for someone who is reliable, has a positive attitude, and enjoys being active.
If you are:
• Confident driving a van and have a full, clean driver's license.
• Physically able to assist with lifting and carrying furniture and boxes.
• A great communicator who enjoys meeting new people.
• Passionate about our mission of community support and sustainability.
...then you could be exactly who we're looking for!

• See your impact directly: Know that your time is helping furnish a home for a family and keeping useful items out of our landfills.
• Join a friendly team: Become part of a friendly and dedicated group of volunteers and staff.
• Stay active and engaged: Get out and about in the community you’re serving.
