Scottish Recovery Consortium (SRC) is looking for a proactive, self-motivated team player to be part of an exciting development in partnership with the Aberdeen City Health and Social Care Partnership (ACHSCP). ACHSCP and SRC were successful in a funding bid through the Gambling Levy Fund, and we now have the opportunity to create a post that will specifically develop a Gambling Harm Recovery Network (GHRN) across Aberdeen City. Scottish Recovery Consortium will host this post (initially for 1 year) with the potential to extend for another three years. SRC will have an integral role in the project, providing ongoing development work and specialist expertise.

The project aims to create a learning, adaptive, person centred system of support for gambling harms in Aberdeen City. It operationalises national recommendations, leverages local assets, embeds trauma informed and lived experience driven approaches, and builds a more coherent, equitable, and responsive system of care. Through this work, ACHSCP and SRC will reduce unmet need and move closer to the national vision for a public health-led, person-centred response to gambling harms.

As an employee of the Scottish Recovery Consortium (SRC), the post holder will report directly to the Chief Executive Officer, who has overall responsibility for the SRC element of this project. The successful post holder will have a unique opportunity to work directly with the Community and Prisons-based teams within SRC and, externally, with a range of partners across Aberdeen City, including ACHSCP.

The role involves designing, developing and delivering a local GHRN across Aberdeen City. The postholder will work alongside people with lived and living experience, communities, statutory services and the third sector to strengthen recovery-oriented, trauma-informed and rights-based responses to gambling harms.

This is a role in the north of Scotland, requiring travel across Aberdeen City. There is also an expectation that you will attend SRC monthly staff team meetings in our Glasgow office and any others relevant to organisational work and development. Your role will be to:

• Asset map the current gambling support across Aberdeen City
• Identify gaps in provision
• Lead the development, design, delivery and coordination of a local GHRN.
• Build strong working relationships with partners to ensure the collaborative success of the project

The Community Gambling Brief Intervention Practitioner will provide a community-based Gambling Brief Intervention service in the wider community and primary care settings throughout Scotland in partnership with other statutory, voluntary and community agencies in the area.

It is seeking to recruit a flexible, adaptable individual who can work effectively in a changing environment with a dynamic consumer base.

The post-holder will assist the RCA Trust to play a critical role in the expansion of gambling harms services across Scotland.

The Gambling Harms Group Worker facilitates safe, supportive, and recovery focused group work for people affected by gambling harms, including individuals with lived experience and, where appropriate, affected others. The role aims to reduce harm, improve wellbeing, build resilience, and support positive behaviour change through structured group interventions.

Where the role fits in our organisation

Our Communities and Place team consists of our Community Transport, Employability, Volunteering, Children and Families and Locality teams. This role sits within the Community Transport team, although the focus of the role is on Business Support, Employability and Volunteering – no technical knowledge of Transport or bus driving is required.

What You'll Do

The Connecting Communities Development Officer will play a critical role in creating and assuring the sustainability of Community Transport across Dumfries and Galloway over the next 4 years. There is significant value to be unlocked within this sector by the addition of development capacity through this role and we are excited about the opportunities for this new team.

A detailed knowledge of Transport or Community Transport is not needed for this role – it is a business support role, and will not involve the direct delivery of any community transport operations. There will be no driving, no logistics planning and no working directly with drivers.

Instead, this role will support Community Transport Operators (CTOs) with the evolution of their Business Plans, grant finding, volunteer recruitment and employability opportunities. You will form great relationships with the CTO Managers, making sure you add real value amongst their daily jobs.

This role would suit someone with experience of working in business support or administration for a third sector organisation and with ambitions to make an even bigger difference to the people of Dumfries and Galloway through a regional role, or a new entrant with the correct skills and approach.

The role will be line managed and supported by the Lead for Community Transport and further supported by the wider TSDG Comms and Business Support teams. We are advertising for the Lead Officer in parallel with this post, so this is an exciting opportunity to join and shape a new regional project in Dumfries and Galloway.

It is principally a 9am – 5pm, 4 day/week role, with very limited evening or weekend working anticipated. The actual work pattern would be discussed at interview but we can offer a high degree of flexibility through our flexi-time policy. A minimum 25% of time would be expected to be in the Dumfries office, 25% out with the CTOs across the region and the rest home-working or in the Dumfries office.

• Be the visible face of TSDG to the Community Transport Operators so that they feel well-supported in their delivery.
• Support CTOs in their development aspirations such as decarbonisation, fleet replacement, governance etc.
• Work with CTOs to ensure that their Business Models are better able to attract grant funding and earned income.
• Work with the TSDG Employability team and CTOs to plan and deliver effective Employability programmes through CTOs.
• Plan and deliver a programme of region-wide volunteer-recruitment to CTOs, in partnership with CTOs to ensure that it matches local need.
• Work with CTOs to gather and evaluate relevant information as per the agreed plan around the impact of their services.
• Support colleagues across TSDG to deliver on our joint outcomes and contribute to effective team working to make TSDG a great place to work.

More about you

• You will have experience of business support or administration, or equivalent Training / Qualifications – this role would suit a new entrant with the right skills and approach.
• You will be able to quickly form excellent working relationships with a wide range of partners.
• You will highlight emerging opportunities to line management, displaying good judgment and a bias for action.
• You will take responsibility for delivery of your own outcomes, and to escalate challenges or concerns in good time.
• You will be a good team player, with good verbal and written communication skills and good knowledge of current common workplace IT systems.

What You'll Do

Alongside the rest of the Board, the Treasurer will play a pivotal role in steering and supporting the charity through growth, sustainability challenges (such as funding, waiting lists, volunteer capacity) and ensuring the service continues to meet its mission in a changing environment. With increasing mental health demands and third sector pressures, strong leadership at Board level can make a real difference.
