Would be vs will be

Is there any kind person who would or could work this shift for me? Swaps or bribes would be considered!

Thank you for looking.

I saw the above except of the email sent to our colleagues.

Please explain to me which meaning of would here?

If we use "will be" what would sentence mean?

I know that would is used in conditionals.

Thanks
