At the Richmond Fellowship Scotland, we’re serious about having fun! As a Fun Achiever, your role will be to ensure that the people we support experience lots of opportunities to have a good time and make friends & social connections.
This is a fixed term maternity cover post from September 2026 until August 2027 with potential extension.
You will design and deliver new face to face and online fun activities. You will work closely with operational service teams providing them with fun resources and support existing fun initiatives, such as our annual Participatory Funding Programme and celebration events. You will also provide practical help and encouragement to enable people we support to create and run their own fun activities groups and events.
We want the people we support to have the opportunity to experience new and exciting activities, therefore identifying and developing partnerships with local and national organisations / agencies who can offer these things will also be an important part of your role.
We are looking for candidates with relevant experience, but who will also bring creativity, energy, problem solving skills, positivity, brilliant people skills and a great sense of humor. If this sounds like you, apply now!
As this is a national role, frequent travel across Scotland will be required and work will be home based when not travelling. We place a strong focus on continual professional development and the post holder will have access to a wide range of training opportunities.
As well as a competitive salary, the organisation offers generous benefits including enhanced pension contributions and annual leave entitlement, as well as access to over 850 high street and online discounts.
Having a full clean driving license and access to a car is essential.
