Volunteer Interviewers / Advisors

Napier Citizens Advice Bureau are recruiting volunteers now! Volunteering with CAB Napier is perfect for you if you are: working part time and want to do something in your community, if you are planning to re-enter the workforce after a break, or if you are newly retired or about to retire. We provide the ideal opportunity to give your brain a good workout while contributing to the wellness of our community by joining a well-established and respected voluntary organisation. If you enjoy a challenge, have great people skills and can use a computer, then you are an ideal candidate to join our training programme to become a CAB volunteer interviewer.
