Are you passionate about helping people improve their health and wellbeing through community support?

If so, this role in our Falkirk Community Link Service may be the perfect opportunity for you.

About the service

The service works with people who are experiencing challenges such as poor health, social isolation, financial pressures, or difficult life circumstances, supporting them through GP practices in Falkirk East and Falkirk Central. It focuses on early, practical help by offering personalised support conversations that look at the whole person, not just their immediate health concerns.

The aim is to help people feel more confident, supported, and connected within their local community. By working closely with individuals, the service helps them find and access the right local support, build resilience, and take positive steps towards improving their overall wellbeing and quality of life.

Key aspects of the role include:

• Building trusting relationships to understand people’s needs and goals
• Supporting people to access local services and community-based support
• Working with GP teams and partner organisations to improve joined-up support

About you

We are looking for someone who is confident working with people facing complex challenges, and who can build trust and support positive change in a person-centred way.

Key requirements include:

• Experience supporting people in challenging or complex situations
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to build trusting and supportive relationships
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team, with good organisation and professional boundaries

How we’ll support you

You’ll be joining a small but experienced and knowledgeable team who will give you full introduction to all aspects of Community Link Service.

You’ll have a supportive manager as well as access to wider Cyrenians support, including our learning and development programme, and staff wellbeing services.

Do you have experience of managing a small but fast-paced and relationships-focused fundraising team? Do you have knowledge of a broad range of fundraising streams? Do you want to develop a relatively new team to deliver significant income?

If so, this role is for you.

About Cyrenians

At Cyrenians we tackle the causes and consequences of homelessness. We take a values-led and relationships-based approach to delivering our services because we understand that there is no ‘one size fits all’ approach to supporting people towards more positive and stable futures.

About the Fundraising Team

Relationships are at the heart of everything we do at Cyrenians, with those we support and those who support us too.

It’s an exciting time for fundraising at Cyrenians. Our team has only been around for a few years and in that time, income generation has grown rapidly. It’s now time to take it to the next level.

With a fundraising mix currently dominated by corporate partnerships, individual giving and major donors, we are looking to build on our previous growth while also broadening our mix to events, community fundraising and legacies.

About the role

This role will work closely with our Senior Manager, taking our fundraising strategy and turning it into operational plans, developing the team to deliver in a way that is collaborative, innovative and measurable. Close relationships with our Marketing & Communications and services teams are integral to delivery.

The role has a strong focus on people management, sharing your fundraising expertise with a relatively new team who are ready and eager to learn.

About you

You’ll be a knowledgeable fundraiser, who lives our values and takes great care to build relationships with and in your team, across the organisation and with our treasured supporters. You may have already built or led a fundraising team, with an emphasis on fostering a positive and collaborative culture.

A champion for data-led activity, you’ll take a plan, do, review approach to your fundraising, ensuring learnings are shared and embedded as we move forward.

How we’ll support you

Working closely with colleagues in Marcomms, Trusts & Grants and our services, you’ll be surrounded by those who share your passion to tackle homelessness and its root causes. We’ll encourage you to grow your management experience, with creativity, strong values and innovation, and to take a planned and pragmatic approach to your calendar of activity and implementing new initiatives.

You will be supported to attend training and networking events to deepen your knowledge of the issues surrounding homelessness and social exclusion; engage with a variety of stakeholders and extend your professional network.
