Jobs in Fife

Established over 80 years ago, Youth 1st is the leading support agency for youth organisations, youth groups, youth workers, volunteers and young people in Fife.

Youth 1st provides services which increase the effectiveness and capacity of our members who engage with young people in the youth work sector in Fife. We support and empower youth workers, volunteers and organisations, leading to strong and resilient community-based youth work, which in turn will improve the life experiences and opportunities of young people.

We have an established membership consisting of a number of youth clubs, groups and organisations from throughout Fife. Most of our member groups are organised and run by volunteers.

Our highly experienced staff team offer support, advice, access to training and events to all our members across Fife. We are a valued Youth Work partner in both the Local and National Voluntary Youth Work Sectors and work closely with our partners in Fife Council, NHS Fife, Fife Voluntary Action and other agencies across Fife.

Following the success of our b:connected programme funded through the Community Health and Wellbeing fund, we are excited to be seeking a Training and Wellbeing Co-ordinator to continue and expand this important work across Years 5 and 6.

This is a rewarding opportunity to support volunteers, youth workers, and sector leaders across Fife — helping those who support others to reconnect, recharge and feel inspired again.

About the Role:

You will coordinate and deliver a programme of support sessions, workshops, training, and events for people working and volunteering in the voluntary youth work sector across Fife.

Your work will focus on improving health and wellbeing.

The role includes two key strands:

• Leadership support sessions – creating safe, supportive spaces for third sector leaders to connect, seek peer support, and reduce stress and burnout.
• Health and wellbeing workshops – organising and/or delivering sessions based (but not limited to) on the 5 Ways to Wellbeing, supporting volunteers and youth workers to improve their own wellbeing and build confidence in supporting the young people they work with.

The project will culminate in a large Health and Wellbeing Event in March 2028 for the youth work sector across Fife.

We’re Looking For Someone Who:

• Has experience in the voluntary, community, or youth work sector
• Is confident facilitating groups and building positive relationships
• Has a strong understanding of health and wellbeing (or willingness to develop this)
• Is organised, proactive, and able to manage events and programmes
• Brings empathy, warmth, and genuine passion for supporting those who support others

Why Join Us?

Many volunteers and youth workers are emotionally exhausted after several extremely challenging years. This role offers a chance to make a real, lasting difference — strengthening the people who hold communities together and improving outcomes for young people across Fife.

What We Offer:

• A supportive and forward-thinking team environment.
• Flexible home-based working with Fife-wide engagement.
• Opportunities for professional development.

Help us to make a difference!
