At CAP, we celebrate diversity and strive to build an inclusive workforce that reflects the diverse communities we serve. We warmly welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds. We particularly encourage applications from Global Majority/UK Minority Ethnic candidates, as these groups are currently underrepresented within our wider workforce. We are committed to creating an environment where every individual can thrive and feel they belong.
Everything we do is rooted in our values. First and foremost, we are Christ-centred. The work that we do is guided by faith and the belief that everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and God’s love.
We are bold in fearlessly putting that faith into action to help others and challenge injustice, while also seeking to be compassionate in the way that we want to understand others and offer them meaningful care. We are collaborative in our approach, making time to learn from others and work together to take on UK poverty. And finally, we prioritise beingjoyful in the face of challenges, because our faith gives us confidence that change is truly possible.
Context
CAP's mission is to end UK poverty by equipping churches to reach their communities. We exist to empower and serve churches through exceptional partnerships, delivering impactful debt advice and coaching services. Providing accessible, community-rooted support to those facing financial and social challenges across the UK. Our approach is centred on empowering individuals by providing holistic support to achieve financial resilience through expert debt advice and tailored coaching products. This approach goes far beyond financial stability, creating lasting personal and relational transformation and contributing to a society where all can flourish. We are committed to fostering strong relationships with our church partners, ensuring a collaborative and effective service that continually improves to meet the evolving needs of local communities.
Purpose
The primary role of the Compliance Manager (Scotland) is to provide support, training and specialist knowledge for debt advisors delivering Scottish-specific solutions, and to Debt Centres teams in local Churches who provide in-person support to those in debt and on low incomes, ensuring our policies and procedures are both efficient and compliant with current legislation. The role will work to ensure we deliver high-quality debt advice and holistic, person-centred support to our clients through further developing Debt Help policy and keeping abreast of government regulations and industry good practice. The role will also work closely with our network of debt centres to explore and develop new initiatives that will help and benefit our clients across Scotland.
Passion
We are passionate about knowledge and innovation, using this to deliver high quality advice and service to all our clients. We are determined to ensure all our debt advice staff and church based teams are adequately equipped to deliver a great service and the support we provide our clients is always improving. We are driven to enable and empower our partner churches to be the answer to some of the biggest problems society faces.

Safe Harbour - Gender Based Violence Services
Through funding from the Big Lottery Fairer Life Chances Programme, we have established a Gender Based Violence (GBV) Hub (Safe Harbour) located in Leith, Edinburgh. Domestic abuse support is based on risk assessment and is often a crisis intervention but alongside this, Sacro will provide wraparound, holistic support via counselling, wellbeing activities and peer support. Safe Harbour will be a safe, non-judgemental and welcoming place to meet and engage with peers and professionals. Support offered will not be time limited focusing on the ethos of the right support at the right time.
Safe Harbour brings three of our specialist GBV services:
Lunar - supporting women and trans people selling or exchanging sex.
Aditi - supporting women of colour who have experienced domestic abuse, Honour-Based Violence and Female Genital Mutilation.
FearFree - supporting heterosexual men and those from the LGBT+ communities including trans people.
Safe Harbour is an inclusive service offering dedicated time and space to those accessing any of our Edinburgh GBV services including three women only days.
We are looking for a specialist transgender worker, ideally with lived experience who can provide support to transgender people affected by Gender Based Violence (GBV), supporting those accessing the Hub. We know how difficult the landscape has become for transgender people in recent months and believe strongly that a safe space with knowledgeable and friendly support is essential in addressing some of the harm caused by an increasingly hostile environment.
The successful candidate will have knowledge and understanding of the unique challenges faced by transgender people and be able to offer meaningful support to them. This service will be an in-person service, operating from Leith, and within the community where appropriate.
The post holder must have a gendered understanding of domestic abuse and trauma informed practice, be an effective communicator as well as highly organised with effective casework management skills. We are a values led organisation looking for candidates whose values align with ours.
This is a brand new role and offers the successful candidate an exciting opportunity to bring their knowledge and experience and contribute significantly to the development and shaping of the post.
Membership of the Protecting Vulnerable Groups Scheme (PVG) will be a requirement for this post.
Sacro values diversity and welcomes applications from all sections of the community. We particularly welcome applicants from the trans community and those with lived experience.

CoEL is seeking a confident, friendly all-rounder who enjoys people and variety. You will be a resourceful and organised person ready to join a small administration team at Carers of East Lothian. You will help to support unpaid carers and professionals with accessing the information and support they need.
What you’ll be doing
What you’ll bring
You do not need previous experience working with carers. We provide training on our services, referral pathways and systems. You’ll focus on the administration role first, with routine finance duties introduced gradually after probation, with support.
Job Purpose: Join EWA in a role that makes a direct contribution to safeguarding women at the highest risk of serious harm or murder. You will coordinate and administer Edinburgh’s four Multi-Agency Risk Assessment Conferences (MARACs), which take place on a rolling four-week cycle, 13 times a year. This is a key role at the heart of the Edinburgh MARAC, helping meetings run smoothly and ensuring vital information is handled efficiently. We are looking for someone who enjoys working at pace, takes pride in accuracy and attention to detail, and can organise their workload confidently to meet important deadlines.
A satisfactory Disclosure Scotland Level 2 check is required for this position.
We are a specialist law centre championing and protecting children’s rights across Scotland. Our vision is for ‘all children growing up in Scotland to have their rights respected, protected and fulfilled.’ We provide free, specialist legal advice on child law and children’s rights, helping children, young people, carers, and families access justice when their rights have been breached.
We do this through our advice line and community clinic in Govanhill. We also deliver specialist training to organisations and schools, building knowledge and capacity to better uphold children’s rights. Through the evidence and insights gathered from our legal work, we advocate for long-term, systemic change to improve outcomes for children across Scotland.
The Centre established a Community Clinic in Govanhill, which has been operating since October 2025. The Clinic provides free legal advice and support to people who need us most, helping to remove barriers to accessing justice and extending our reach into the community. Our community advice work responds to the significant barriers many children and families continue to face in accessing legal support, particularly within Black, Asian and minority ethnic communities, where a lack of access to legal aid can leave rights breaches unaddressed.
Through the Community Clinic, we also seek to become a trusted and valued part of the local community. By building strong relationships with schools, community organisations, statutory services and others involved in the care and support of children and young people, we aim to increase awareness of rights, improve access to advice, and ensure our work is informed by the experiences and needs of the communities we serve.
Purpose of the role
As a solicitor for the Scottish Child Law Centre, your primary role is to promote and further the rights of children and young people in Scotland, by giving legal advice to children and families at our Govanhill Community Clinic.
Please note this post is open to women only. This is a Genuine Occupational Requirement under the Equality Act 2010 Schedule 9, Part 1.
SCLC require to recruit a solicitor for the Govanhill Community Clinic. The role is to provide legal information and advice face to face in our Govanhill clinic. The diversity of the local population and the variety of cultures in Govanhill includes some religions and cultures where women would not, or do not feel comfortable, attending a one-on-one meeting with a man. The main demographic of people who use our clinic are ethnic minority women. Engagement and feedback from community members and partner organisations highlighted the need and preference for women to provide solicitor services in the clinic.
Schedule 9 (part 1) of the Equality Act 2010 provides that in certain circumstances it is lawful for an employer to apply a requirement to have a particular protected characteristic where, having regard to the nature or context of the work; there is an occupational requirement, and the application of the requirement is a proportionate means of achieving a legitimate aim.
SCLC believe that, for reasons stated above, the requirement to have a solicitor who is a woman is a genuine occupational requirement. Being a woman is therefore essential to the post and there is a legitimate aim for applying the requirement to have a woman-only post. For the same reasons, and in particular the direct legal advice and services the post holder will perform, the requirement is proportionate.
