The Conservation Volunteers connects people together to protect and restore nature.

About the role:

We’re looking for an experienced People Advisor to support the Green Skills John Muir Way traineeship programme. The programme is a 3-year initiative, with up to 24 paid trainees per year engaging in practical biodiversity tasks and projects along the route. The programme aims to bridge the skills gap and workforce challenges, increase connectivity and break down the disconnect with nature, working in partnership with City of Edinburgh Council, Falkirk Council, Scottish Canals and East Dunbartonshire Council, and funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

The Green Skills initiative is designed for 16 – 24-year-olds facing barriers to employment. The 10-month traineeships involve a combination of practical work experience, and accredited training. This role is a hand on, people centred opportunity where your expertise will directly support young people to succeed. As a People Advisor, you’ll deliver a high quality, responsive HR advisory service to the Green Skills team. You’ll manage a varied caseload of employee relations matters including absence, wellbeing, performance, disciplinaries, and grievances, ensuring fair, lawful, and timely outcomes. A strong focus of the role is supporting leaders to confidently apply people processes, particularly around absence management and early intervention.

You’ll also play a central role in the end-to-end recruitment and onboarding of the trainees, ensuring processes are inclusive, well-coordinated, and aligned with safer recruitment principles. From shortlisting and interviews to pre-employment checks, contracts, and inductions, you’ll help create a smooth and positive journey for new starter trainees.

In addition, you will oversee compliance processes, including criminal record checks for trainees. You’ll manage the full process, from collating ID and checking applications to updating electronic records, monitoring due dates, and escalating issues where necessary. You will also maintain accurate HR records, track trainee absence and leave in the HR system, and ensure information flows efficiently for payroll processing.

About You

You’re an experienced HR professional with a strong grounding in employee relations and recruitment. You’re confident applying employment law in practical situations and enjoy coaching leaders to build their people management capability. Organised, adaptable, and detail oriented, you can manage competing priorities while maintaining high standards.

You’ll bring:

• Proven HR advisory experience across employee relations and recruitment
• CIPD Level 5 (or equivalent HR qualification)
• Experience interpreting employment law and HR best practice
• Strong organisational and data management skills
• The ability to analyse trends and present meaningful people insights
• A proactive, collaborative approach and a commitment to confidentiality

We are happy to consider any reasonable adjustments that candidates may need during the recruitment process, and you will be asked whether you require any during your application. If you would like to discuss your requirements further please contact the People Team via recruitment@tcv.org.uk or by telephone on 01302 388883 . We also offer reasonable adjustments on the job.

This work connects people with nature, and that connection delivers powerful results. Join in, feel good.

Do you have a passion for supporting people living with dementia and their carers? Then come and lead our team of volunteers who have been making a difference in the lives of people affected by dementia and their carers for over four years. We want you to deliver and develop our service while meeting our aim of bringing light into the lives of our visitors. You can get a flavour of Past Times by watching this video which was compiled in August 2025.

Here is a quote from a carer who brings her parents, who both live with dementia: “Mum and Dad look forward to each session. They love the people, the music and the games. I love seeing them relaxed, joining in and looking more like themselves from before.”

We are a church-based project – reaching out with warm hospitality, friendship and support to anyone living with dementia, their carers and family members in the Rutherglen and Cambuslang area. We hope you will be respectful of our Christian ethos, but you do not need to share our faith.

Past Times is a member of Meeting Centres Scotland, which serves as a central hub for resources, guidance, and collaboration. We are also a member of Age Scotland and other networks which provide advice, training and support. Professional advice is always available as a Support Worker from Alzheimer Scotland and / or the Older Adult Mental Health Team based in Rutherglen Health Centre attend all our sessions.

This new post is funded until February 2028 by the Scottish Government’s Community Mental Health and Wellbeing Fund. The full-time salary is £30,000, pro rata £12,000, rising to £12,720 in February 2027.

Join Geeza Break as a Trustee!

Geeza Break is a unique, well-established, community-based organisation committed to improving the health, wellbeing and care outcomes of local children, young people and their families. We provide regulated, registered social care services and community groups, providing families with both practical and emotional support, meaningful engagement and strong community connections. Everything we do is rooted in listening to and supporting children, young people and their families, safeguarding and advocating for them, providing quality, nurturing and inclusive respite care in the community and championing their rights and wellbeing.

We are now inviting applications from committed individuals to join our Board of Trustees. As a Trustee, you will provide strategic leadership and good governance in line with our mission and values, ensure legal and financial compliance, and help shape the long-term direction of the organisation. You may also act as an ambassador and champion for the organisation.

We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds. Lived experience of care service provision and/or the Northeast of Glasgow where the organisation is based and primarily delivers services and support, is valued, alongside skills or expertise in other areas such as governance, HR, fundraising, marketing and communications, community partnership working, social care delivery, safeguarding or risk management.

Previous board experience is not essential as a board induction programme will be provided with support from existing trustees, the Chief Executive and staff team, and we welcome informal discussions or a visit to our office to hear more about the role and its requirements prior to application.

The trustee role is an unpaid voluntary role, with reasonable expenses available and reimbursed in line with policy. Board meetings are currently held every six weeks on a Tuesday afternoon, with a finance and resource subgroup held the Thursday prior to the board meeting. Meetings can be attended online or in person to accommodate trustee’s diary availability and remove any barriers to participating.

Background

In 1999 Badenoch and Strathspey Community Transport Company was created by and for the people of this area to provide accessible transport. In 2022, recognising that, through our transport provision, we were providing a wider range of services, we rebranded and changed our name. More recently, we have refreshed our purpose, vision and mission.

Our purpose is to strengthen our community by providing accessible transport and wellbeing opportunities. Our work is regularly recognised at a national level, most recently in June 2025 at the Scottish Transport Awards. The organisation is growing and developing at pace, with further opportunities in the years ahead, so it is an exciting time to get involved and help shape our development. There will be several staff retirements during 2026 so a key part of this role will involve managing a successful handover with the outgoing member of staff. Full training will be provided.

BSCC is supported by eight part time staff and circa 80 volunteers, who all care passionately about our community.

Main Purpose of the Job:

The Finance Manager has two main roles: -

• Responsible for managing and ensuring the smooth running of financial processes, procedures, and bookkeeping for BSCC.
• Support the wider day to day running of the organisation.
