This is a brand new post, created through two-year funding from Macmillan Cancer Support. The Cancer CARE Worker will provide independent advocacy, decision-making support, and peer network development for people living with cancer and their unpaid carers across Fife.

CARE stands for Culture, Agency, Respect, and Equity. These four words describe what every person supported through this project should experience.

This is not a Carer Support Worker role. It sits at a higher level of autonomy and complexity, involving one-to-one clinical liaison, co-facilitation with NHS teams, professional training delivery, and leadership of a lived experience co-design process. It requires someone who can hold professional relationships with oncology teams in the morning and sit with a carer in crisis in the afternoon.

People living with cancer and their unpaid carers do not consistently experience meaningful involvement in treatment decisions. People report leaving appointments confused about what was decided. Clinicians report wanting to do better but lacking time and tools. People from culturally diverse communities, those supporting someone with dementia alongside cancer, and those facing poverty face the highest barriers.

Under the Carers (Scotland) Act 2016, carers have a legal right to be involved in decisions about the person they care for, to have their own needs assessed, and to receive support that allows them to participate fully. In practice, many carers do not experience these rights, and this project exists to close that gap.

This project will not replicate or compete with clinical services. It sits alongside them, filling the gap between what health services can offer and what people living with cancer and those who care for them actually need to feel confident and respected in their care.

A full driving licence and access to a reliable vehicle are essential for this role.

Fife Carers Centre is committed to equality of opportunity and welcomes applications from all sections of the community. We particularly encourage applications from people with lived experience of cancer, caring, or from communities that face barriers to accessing health and care services.

The Rehabilitation Worker will facilitate positive lifestyle changes for clients by developing and implementing individual Action Plans to enable clients to live predominantly without using substances.

We fight isolation and exclusion by bringing people together, building confidence and creating supportive communities. We support people of all ages and backgrounds through relationship-based support, focusing on trust and personal development, supporting everyone to set and achieve their own goals. Thanks to the support of Street Soccer, 82% of players say that their quality of life has improved.

Lived experience is at the heart of what we do, with over 80% of our staff having lived experience of the challenges our players face.
