Positive Help is a well-established, third sector service provider – a registered charity – based in central Edinburgh. We have almost 40 years’ experience of supporting adults, children and families living with /affected by HIV and or Hepatitis.

With the support of a cohort of trained and supervised volunteers, we provide a range of services to help people who have complex needs live fulfilling, healthy lives in the community.

We are now looking for an Adult Services Manager with proven experience of working in a leadership role to join our dedicated team as we further develop the organisation. We work from our centrally situated office in Edinburgh, although there is the option to work from home depending on business need.

The ideal candidate will have the skills and experience we need to help us deliver our adult services – specifically Supportive Transport, and Live Well Services - and the wider organisation effectively and efficiently, and have a genuine interest in this very rewarding work.

As a member of our leadership team, you will play a key role in ensuring that service users receive the right support from us and others timeously, and that volunteers are appropriately matched and well supported / supervised to maintain a high standard of practice and satisfaction.

You will be outcome focussed and have a keen interest in demonstrating the impact of services as well as working across boundaries and developing and sustaining positive relationships with internal colleagues, volunteers, partner agencies, referrers and a wide range of stakeholders.

You will have experience of managing or coordinating projects inspiring people to work together towards shared goals. You will be a problem-solver with an empathic approach, and excellent communication skills.

Our work can be challenging though highly rewarding. Therefore, you will need to be motivated, ambitious and self-organised, and also be prepared to play a part in our on-going organisational development.

In return, we offer you a supportive working environment, a 35-hour working week, 25 days annual leave plus 10 public holidays (pro rata) and an employer contributory pension scheme.
