About the service

The Moving Forward Service, delivered by Cyrenians, supports young people aged 15–19 in Edinburgh who are not in education, employment, or training (NEET). It provides early-stage employability support through a relationship-based, outreach approach. The service works both with young people - mainly in East Edinburgh- and their families across the city to address barriers and help them move towards positive outcomes.

About the role

• With families: offer tailored, person-centred support on issues such as financial hardship, wellbeing, and access to services, including home visits and signposting.

The role involves lone working, outreach, multi-agency collaboration, safeguarding responsibilities, and maintaining accurate records. It also includes contributing to service delivery, monitoring, and ongoing development.

About you

You should be motivated, resilient, and organised individual committed to supporting disadvantaged young people and families. You have experience working with young people and/or families facing complex challenges, and understand issues linked to deprivation.

You can work independently and as part of a team, communicate effectively, manage your workload, and build strong relationships. Experience in employability pathways, welfare support, or outreach work is beneficial but not essential.

How we’ll support you

You’ll be working independently but with a supportive line manager. You will also have access to wider Cyrenians support, including our learning and development programme, and staff wellbeing services.
