• Manage adverse donor reactions by providing instructions and physical assistance
• Monitor donors post-donation and assist them to rebook for their next donation

 

Our paid and flexible self-paced training program has a balance between on-the-job practice and online class schedules to ensure that you are well supported. 

Along with a genuine passion for delivering an exceptional donor experience, you'll bring:

• A warm, welcoming approach and the ability to build positive relationships with donors
• Strong customer service and/or patient-facing experience
• A commitment to supporting and contributing to a positive team culture
