Work Experience, Placements and Volunteering
Across the Calico Group, we have a wide range of unpaid opportunities for anyone wanting to develop their skills and experience.
They can last just a few weeks or many months, dependent on your plans and objectives.
We work with you to match your aspirations and goals with your perfect position within The Calico Group to ensure your time with us is as rewarding as possible.
Volunteering doesn’t affect your benefits, provides work experience, builds confidence and helps you give back to your community. You can also claim travel expenses too.
These positions are available in the many areas of work undertaken at the Calico Group. These include;
- Warehousing
- Driving
- Vehicle crew
- White goods engineering
- Retail
- Customer services
- Online Sales
- Painting & Decorating
- Administration

All needs and adjustments will be discussed with you and where we can’t support this alternative opportunities can be found.
