This new role would suit someone who is naturally very well-organised, able to build strong relationships and garner support, enjoys working with lots of partners, has experience of Scottish politics, and is committed to climate action and justice.

Together, we represent hundreds of thousands of people across Scotland and stand in solidarity with communities most affected by climate impacts around the world.

Key Tasks

• Building and deepening relationships with MSPs, officials and party staff, building support for SCCS’s policy priorities.
• Attending and organising stakeholder gatherings to recruit more diverse members and build support from unions, the faith community and sympathetic organisations to deliver a more unified, consistent and powerful political voice for urgent climate action which, in turn, will help influence the politicians that rely on these key stakeholders for votes and funding.
• Ensuring political influencing is connected with media work, mobilising supporters and wider stakeholders, and running public campaigns to build and maintain the public support for action.
• Day to day monitoring and analysis of the Scottish Parliament, identifying opportunities and sharing information with members.
• Working with UK organisations on relevant Westminster/reserved matters that affect Scotland, and with TCC, our sister UK coalition, to develop their Local Intelligence Hub so that it becomes a platform Scottish campaigners can use to track advocacy and impact.

Citizens Advice Edinburgh works in partnership with NHS Lothian, the NHS Charity, and the Community Help & Advice Initiative (CHAI) to deliver an outreach advice service at the Western General (WGH), Royal Infirmary (RIE), and Royal Hospital for Children & Young People (RHCYP) in Edinburgh. The service comprises 3 part-time staff members at the Royal Infirmary, 1 part-time staff member at the Western General, and 1 part-time staff member at the RHCYP.

The present vacancy is at the RIE, although the post holder may be required to work flexibly between the hospitals, covering periods of annual leave, sickness absence, training, etc.

The project delivers welfare rights and health-related advice to patients, visitors and staff members attending the acute sector in Edinburgh. Research has shown that resolving problems with benefits, debt, employment, housing, and family issues can have a positive effect on patient health. The service is also aimed at clients who have had a recent change in circumstances due to a health-related issue or diagnosis.

The Welfare Rights and Health Project Adviser should be experienced in giving advice, particularly in relation to benefits. They must have an understanding of the role within the healthcare environment and the impact of poverty on health.

The post holder will be required to assertively develop and maintain links with NHS staff, Social Work staff, other CAE specialists and external agencies.

The acute sector is a fast-paced, rapidly evolving, and challenging environment in which to work. Due to the project’s setting, the work can be both physically and emotionally demanding. Clients are frequently extremely unwell, presenting practical challenges to engagement, and advisers must move around the large hospital sites in order to meet with staff, patients and carers. In addition to possessing the necessary practical knowledge, candidates will therefore require energy and resilience to maintain the service’s success.

Fortune Works is one of Scotland’s largest social enterprises for people with learning disability. The service supports around 120 people with learning disability to play a full role in the life of the community through provision of in-house economic activity and social support, working in partnership with local community organisations in Drumchapel and north-west Glasgow. Fortune Works is part of Enable Glasgow, a long-established member-led organisation which works with people with learning disability and their carers in the city.

The Support Worker-Social Enterprise duties will include helping to create, facilitate and maintain positive person centred activities which support people with a learning disability to play a worthwhile economic role as valued members of the local community.

The successful candidate will provide a high quality of care and support for service users with a range of learning disabilities and will encourage participation in group activities to support people to gain skills and confidence. The applicant should have experience of programme planning and review systems.

Most importantly they should have a positive and empowering approach to support people purchasing the service at Fortune Works.
