Are you a change maker? Are you an experienced family outreach and engagement professional who is passionate about bringing about change for the under-fives.

Thrive at Five is a national charity focused on giving every child the best possible start in life. By working alongside families, communities, and local partners, we help build stronger, more connected support so more children get what they need to thrive. This is one of three Lead posts we are recruiting to over the summer to start delivery of our new programme in West Dunbartonshire, our first in Scotland. Alongside a new Early Years Health Lead and Early Years Education Lead, you will work to design and deliver an outreach and engagement strategy that identifies and responds to local needs, helping to reach up to 2,500 local children through our multi-year programme. Thrive at Five has recently signed an initial three-year partnership agreement with Dunbartonshire Council. Senior leaders in the Health and Social Care Partnership are also closely involved in shaping the programme.
