Job Description

Leave the corporate grind behind. Join a team that values its employees and embraces diversity. We're Goodwill Industries of Northern Illinois - a 100% non-profit organization doing good work throughout an 18-county area in Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin. Our Mission is changing lives and transforming communities. We're a retailer and a recycler that puts all of our sales revenue back into the communities we serve through employment services for people with barriers and programs like Good Grads, Good Taxes, and Life Launch.

Using a web-based application, a listing specialist works with a wide and interesting variety of items, preparing each to appear in multiple sales channels, such as shopgoodwill.com and ebay.com.

Each lister is efficient, organized, and prepared to meet organization and sales' channel standards. They also support the E-Commerce team through other responsibilities as needed.

Attention to detail is critical to creating appealing, successful auctions with precise data and measurements to accurately and thoroughly offer Goodwill merchandise to prospective customers.

Specialists focus on creating satisfying customer experiences while meeting hourly listing goals.

This position is temporary with potential to be permanent.
