  • £28,731 – £31,571
  • Hybrid working from home/office (Inverness)
  • Closing 18th October 2023

Waverley Care is Scotland’s leading HIV and hepatitis C charity. We are at an exciting point in our history as Scotland strives to reach the goal of zero new HIV transmissions by 2030, and we are determined to play an essential role in getting us there.

The post of Health Improvement Coordinator is an opportunity to reach out to communities disproportionately affected by HIV, in particular gay, bisexual and all men who have sex with men, and people from African communities or of African heritage. The Coordinator will educate and raise awareness of HIV, offer advice and support around HIV prevention, including HIV testing in community settings and access to condoms. The role will also provide support services for all people living with HIV in the Highland area, through community-based interventions focusing on reducing HIV stigma and improving wellbeing. The post holder will manage a caseload and work with individuals to better understand their needs and identify opportunities for them to develop.

As part of the Health Improvement Team, this post will collaborate with other team members to develop learning, skills, and best practice to support individuals. The post holder will also take part in prevention work such as HIV testing and awareness raising at events aimed at engaging those at higher risk of HIV transmission.

We are looking for someone who can bring the following attributes to the role:

  • A demonstrable interest in, and passion for, improving the lives of people affected by blood borne viruses, in particular people disproportionately affected by HIV.
  • Demonstrable experience of working with vulnerable groups, with particular understanding of how living in remote/rural areas may affect this.
  • Excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to develop positive relationships with a range of stakeholders.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills appropriate for a wide range of audiences.
  • A strong team player, able to use own initiative and reflect on their own practice.
  • Interested in development opportunities and further training.

This role offers an exciting opportunity to improve the lives of people living with HIV and plays a vital role in Waverley Care and Scotland's ambition to reach zero new HIV transmissions by 2030. Visit waverleycare.org for more information.

At present MCR mentors make and experience a life changing difference to over 4,000 young people from across the country.

We are looking for an outstanding Partnership & Mentor Recruitment Manager based in the North of Scotland - covering primarily the Highland area but also supporting the team in Aberdeenshire and Aberdeen City.

You will represent the regional mentor recruitment team, input to schools’ teams and meet targets to ensure we have as many mentors local to each school as our young people need.

You’ll establish a deeply personal service that inspires every partner, volunteer and individual to feel a hugely valued part of the MCR cause. This is exceptional relationship building and inspirational championing of the MCR cause in practice. You will be a motivated, committed, enthusiastic and resilient person with a strong and practical belief in addressing inequality. You will be the mentor champion for each of the young people, schools, employers and the local communities we serve.
