We partner with local organisations and communities globally to deliver sustainable, community-led programmes based on expressed needs, regardless of race or religion. Our work focuses on four key areas: food security, sustainable livelihoods, Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH), and global citizenship.
In Dundee, we tackle food waste and insecurity by turning surplus food into meals—over 44,000 since 2021—distributed via foodbanks and larders. We run growing and cooking workshops to help children and community groups build skills and confidence, and provide food and activities during school holidays. We are also finalising our Centre for Sustainable Learning in Dundee to educate and inspire future generations to tackle poverty, challenge injustice, and protect the environment.

At The Roundhouse, we take surplus food from local farms, allotments, and supermarkets to create community meals that go back into the community through local larders and food banks. We are committed to working with the community to build a sustainable, inclusive, and affordable café that not only supports young people seeking alternative career pathways but also helps reduce food waste and strengthens local engagement.
We’re looking for a creative, organised, and community-minded Café Supervisor and hospitality trainer to lead our community café and support local teens in developing real-world hospitality skills. This unique role combines hands-on café management with youth mentoring and training.
You’ll oversee the day-to-day running of the café, work alongside young people as they gain experience in customer service, food preparation, and teamwork, and help shape a supportive learning environment that builds confidence and employability. You’ll be an enthusiastic and driven individual who enjoys working with young people and sharing your passion for food and hospitality. You’ll be organised, adaptable, and able to balance the dual responsibilities of running a café and supporting a learning environment.

About Us
Since 1948, Glasgow’s Golden Generation (GGG) — formerly the Glasgow Old People’s Welfare Committee — has been one of the city’s leading charities supporting older adults. Founded to tackle loneliness and isolation in the aftermath of the Second World War, the charity has continued to evolve to meet the changing needs of Glasgow’s older population. Today, GGG provides a wide range of essential services that promote wellbeing, independence, and dignity for people aged 55 and over.
We currently operate from two key hubs: the David Cargill Centre in Battlefield, which supports older adults across all four quadrants of Glasgow, and the more recently integrated Fraser Centre in Milngavie, extending our reach into East Dunbartonshire. Together, these hubs deliver a variety of day services, befriending programmes, welfare and health support, and digital inclusion initiatives to over 2,000 older adults every year.
In addition, we support more than 500 members across 18 older adult–led clubs, all which affiliate to our charity and benefit from our tailored support, both within our hubs and directly in their local communities. We also collaborate closely with third-sector organisations, housing associations, NHS services, and community partners that share our commitment to improving the lives of older adults.
Our Generation 2030 Strategic Plan outlines a clear ambition: to create age-friendly communities and opportunities across Glasgow by taking our services directly into neighbourhoods, reducing barriers to access, and ensuring that every older adult can stay active, informed, and socially connected. This includes developing smaller community-based programmes, strengthening our partnerships, and tailoring our support to meet the unique needs of each area.
The Welfare Rights Advisor role is central to achieving this vision. Working alongside our wider Welfare Team, the postholder will provide practical financial guidance and welfare support to older adults in the community — helping them access unclaimed benefits, manage household costs, and maintain their independence. The role also supports the delivery of our Making Homes Safer initiative, which identifies potential safety concerns in older people’s homes and ensures appropriate referrals and interventions are made.
By working closely with older adults in their own homes and communities, the Welfare Rights Advisor will play a vital role in promoting financial stability, wellbeing, and safety — directly contributing to GGG’s goal of empowering older people to live fulfilling, dignified lives within strong, inclusive communities, while expanding our reach and deepening our local impact.
About the Role
We are seeking an experienced and compassionate Welfare Rights Advisor to join our established Welfare Team. This post is offered on a fixed-term contract of 18 months, with a strong likelihood of extension, as the project has been successfully funded and delivered for several years.
The Welfare Team supports approximately 400 older adults each year, helping them to access an average of £1.4 million in unclaimed benefits annually — transforming financial security, independence, and wellbeing for some of Glasgow’s most vulnerable citizens.
Based primarily at the David Cargill Centre in Battlefield, with regular work at the Fraser Centre in Milngavie and throughout the wider community, you will play a key role in ensuring older adults receive the financial support and advice they are entitled to.
A driving licence is essential, as much of this work involves community visits and outreach.
For a full outline of the role and person specification, please refer to the Job Description attached to this advert.
The Benefits
• Pay progression scale that is reviewed every 12 months.
• Full induction and ongoing training in welfare rights and related areas.
• Hybrid working.
• Regular supervision and opportunities for continued professional development.
• Access to the charity’s Sick Pay Scheme after one year of continuous service.
• An additional day of leave each year to celebrate your birthday.
We help young people to build life-long belief in themselves, supporting them to take on their own challenges, follow their own passions and discover talents they never knew they had. Because when you prove yourself that you’re ready for anything nothing can hold you back.
Do you want to be part of that?
