    Description

    Volunteer Director of Operations

    Volunteer Leadership Opportunity | Approximately 3–5 Hours per Week

    Help Keep Our Mission Moving

    The Undies Project provides new underwear and bras to people in need through partnerships with nonprofit organizations. We are looking for an organized, dependable volunteer to lead our operations and help ensure essential products reach the people who need them.

    This is a meaningful opportunity to use your organizational and leadership skills to make a direct impact in our community.

    About the Role

    As Director of Operations, you'll oversee the process of purchasing, receiving, organizing, packing, and distributing products to our nonprofit partners.

    You'll be hands-on when needed, while coordinating with a team of volunteers who assist with sorting, packing, and pickups. You won't be expected to do everything yourself!

    What You'll Do

    • Monitor inventory and maintain accurate records of products by type, size, and quantity.
    • Coordinate purchasing within approved budgets and maintain relationships with suppliers and manufacturers.
    • Oversee receipt of purchased products and donations from community collection drives.
    • Keep inventory and storage areas organized.
    • Maintain our Amazon Wishlist to reflect current product needs.
    • Work with the Director of Partner Relations to plan upcoming distributions.
    • Coordinate with Volunteer & Community Engagement to arrange volunteers for sorting and packing sessions.
    • Lead scheduled packing activities, ensuring orders are accurately counted, labeled, and ready for pickup.
    • Coordinate product pickups with nonprofit partners and existing pickup volunteers.
    • Provide brief monthly inventory updates and help improve operational processes.

    What We're Looking For

    • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
    • Comfortable using spreadsheets and maintaining records.
    • Experience in operations, purchasing, inventory management, or logistics is helpful but not required.
    • Ability to coordinate and guide other volunteers.
    • Dependable, collaborative, and comfortable taking initiative.
    • A commitment to helping others and supporting our mission.

    Time Commitment

    Approximately 3–5 hours per week, with flexibility around scheduled sorting, packing, and distribution activities. Some on-site availability in the Greenwich area is required.

    This is an unpaid volunteer leadership position reporting to the Managing Director. The role includes participation in a monthly management team meeting.
