Full Job Description

Donated Goods Retail Production Specialist
Goodwill Columbus – Donated Goods Retail
Pay: $13
Schedule: We’re hiring for shifts, including daytime, evenings and weekends
Employment Type: Full-time, Hourly
Help Turn Donations into Opportunity
At Goodwill Columbus, every donated item helps fund job training and career opportunities in our community. As a Donated Goods Retail Production Specialist, you play a key role in making that happen. You prepare donated items for sale, support your teammates, and keep production moving so our stores can succeed.
If you like staying active, working with your hands, and being part of a team that shares a purpose, this could be a great fit for you.
What You’ll Do Each Day
You’ll work behind the scenes preparing donated items for the sales floor. This is a hands-on, fast-paced role where your effort makes an immediate difference.
In this role, you will:

Sort, inspect, and prepare donated clothing, household items, and accessories
Decide which items are sold, recycled, or redirected based on Goodwill guidelines
Tag and price items accurately and efficiently
Meet daily production and quality goals
Help keep the work area clean, organized, and safe
Support teammates and help production stay on track
Treat donors, customers, and coworkers with dignity and respect

Production Expectations (What “Success” Looks Like)
This role includes clear, measurable goals. Please understand the pace before you apply.

Softlines (clothing & textiles):
Grading, hanging, and barbing: 75–85 items per hour
Hardlines (housewares & goods):
Sorting, pricing and staging: 4 full carts per hour

You’ll receive training and support, but comfort with a steady, physical pace is important.
What We’re Looking For
What matters most is your passion to turn donations into great values for our customers.
You may be a great fit if you:

Enjoy hands-on, active work
Show up on time and take pride in doing your part
Can stay focused and positive in a busy environment
Like working independently and as part of a team
Care about helping others and supporting a mission

Education & experience:

High school diploma or GED is helpful, but not required
Retail or production experience is a plus, not a must

Physical & Work Environment

You’ll be on your feet most of the shift
Regular lifting up to 30 pounds (heavier items occasionally)
Standing, walking, bending, reaching, and pushing throughout the day
Fast-paced thrift store and production setting
Reliable attendance is important for team success

Why Work at Goodwill Columbus?

Be part of a mission that changes lives through work
Gain valuable retail and production experience
Work with a supportive, team-focused group
Every day is different — and every role matters

Ready to Apply?
If you’re dependable, care about doing meaningful work, and like seeing the results of your effort each day, we’d love to hear from you. Apply today and help turn donations into opportunity.
