Community Links Scotland is a well-established community organisation with over 20 years’ experience supporting the communities of West Dunbartonshire and the wider West of Scotland. With a small, dynamic team, the organisation is committed to community-led regeneration, working in partnership with local groups and housing associations to deliver targeted projects that improve wellbeing, develop skills, and create opportunities for those most in need.

Healthy Pathways is a community based wellbeing project supporting adults who are experiencing poor mental health, social isolation, trauma or financial hardship. We provide a safe, welcoming space where people can rebuild confidence, develop coping strategies and form meaningful connections through small group activities, personal development workshops and one to one support.

As Project Officer, you will coordinate and deliver weekly group sessions and short programmes, encourage peer led activity, provide one to one support and help participants access wider services.

We’re looking for someone friendly, open and patient, with strong facilitation and communication skills and the ability to create an inclusive, welcoming environment. You’ll be organised, reflective and confident managing group dynamics, with experience of working with vulnerable individuals (predominantly women) in community settings.

Are you passionate about tackling fuel poverty and supporting communities to become more energy resilient? We are recruiting for an Energy Advisor to support the delivery of our Energy Redress funded West Dunbartonshire Energy Advice Project.

As an Energy Advisor, you will:

• Provide tailored energy advice and advocacy to residents, helping them reduce energy consumption, manage fuel debt, and resolve disputes with utility providers.
• Deliver support through a mix of in-person appointments, home visits for the most vulnerable, telephone consultations, and community workshops/events.
• Work closely with local partners, to maximise engagement and ensure a coordinated approach.
• Promote energy efficiency and signpost to relevant support schemes.
• Monitor and evaluate project impact, maintaining accurate records and contributing to regular reporting.
• Support individuals and households most at risk due to deprivation, low income, or other barriers such as language or health.
• Undertake risk assessments for all project activities.
• Participate in relevant meetings, training, and professional development.

We are undertaking this recruitment alongside Whiteinch & Scotstoun Housing Association and Cadder Housing Association, through a joint recruitment process. Three Energy Advisor positions are available within community-focused organisations in the West of Scotland, aiming to address fuel poverty and enhance energy resilience. These roles offer the opportunity to support households facing energy challenges through advice, advocacy, and community engagement.
