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 being joyful in the face of challenges, because our faith gives us confidence that change is truly possible.

Please note this is ideally a full time role, but would consider 4 days per week depending on candidate circumstances- salary would be paid pro rata for part time. Although the role is hybrid, candidates would be required to work from the our Blantyre office one day a week, on Thursdays when we gather as a team.

Job Description

Purpose

As a core member of our Scotland Hub team, you'll be the on-the-ground catalyst for empowering and developing debt centres and coaching services (Job Club, Life Skills and Money Coaching) within an appropriate area of Scotland. You'll serve as the primary contact between churches and our Scotland Hub, providing vital support and driving excellence in services.

Your key focus will be to inspire, equip, and encourage local CAP workers and church leaders, enabling them to effectively address financial vulnerability and crisis within their communities. You'll build and nurture strong relationships with church leaders, debt coaches and group coaches, ensuring high-quality service delivery and impactful outcomes. You will build and develop strong local networks connecting centres and services together in specific Scotland-wide settings including overseeing our growing work in Scottish Prisons.

Passion

This role specifically focuses on supporting CAP services in Scotland, the exact mix being determined by the make-up of the team. It is expected that the Area Partnership Manager is a hybrid role based out of our Scottish office in Blantyre. This role involves a significant amount of travel to visit partner churches, centres and services across Scotland. In addition there will be termly visits to CAP’s Bradford hub.

Whether you are an experienced professional, community leader, or someone with lived experience who wants to make a difference, we would love to hear from you.

Previous Board or Trustee experience is not essential. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and will provide induction, support and training. LSA is committed to building a diverse and inclusive Board that reflects the communities we serve.

We would also be pleased to hear from applicants who might, over time, wish to contribute to Board leadership roles — including Treasurer or Chair — as part of our ongoing succession planning.

The role is voluntary and unpaid, with reasonable expenses reimbursed. The Board meets approximately six times a year, with opportunities to participate in Sub-Committees and support LSA's strategic development.

Citizens Advice Edinburgh (CAE) is part of an exciting collaborative project – The Family Hub - funded via the Scottish Government’s Whole Family Wellbeing Fund (WFWF).

The collaborative comprises the Third Sector organisations Circle, Stepping Stones North Edinburgh, Home-Start Edinburgh and Home Link Family Support, alongside NHS Lothian’s Parent & Infant Relationship Service and the City of Edinburgh Council’s Early Learning & Childcare Service.

The project delivers bespoke whole-family supports throughout the early years. CAE provides the welfare rights advice element of this service. The collaborative ensures that universal and enhanced support is available at the earliest stage possible for all families with a child not yet in an ELC or a pre-school age setting. This has been achieved by developing a cohesive pathway and a menu of supports alongside families.

The project is underpinned by early intervention and support. In providing holistic support to parents, we aim to improve the caregiving experience and infant mental health. Targeting secure attachment increases the likelihood of children remaining within the family home.

The project aims to:

• Improve family wellbeing
• Reduce inequalities in family wellbeing
• Reduce the need for families requiring crisis intervention
• Reduce the number of children living away from their families
• Increase the number of families taking up wider support

The multi-disciplinary service is delivered via physical Hubs in each locality, Pop-ups and Home Visits to families, to ensure city-wide, equal and convenient access.

Your Role

As the project’s Income Maximisation Adviser, you will principally advise parents about welfare entitlement, grants, and tariffs; budgeting; reducing household costs; and managing debt. Alongside financial topics, you will also offer assistance with housing, employment, and other related areas of advice. The central aim of the role is to reduce the number of families and children living in relative poverty.

The successful candidate must be experienced in giving advice, particularly in relation to benefits. Evidence of training and experience within another advice role is expected, but opportunities to develop your knowledge would be available via access to Citizens Advice’s comprehensive training platform. Provision of advice would be supported by the Citizens Advice information database and access to Citizens Advice Edinburgh’s network of specialists.

It is not essential to have experience of working within the sphere of Early Years or family support, but the candidate must be motivated to work collaboratively as part of a multi-disciplinary team and to display awareness and understanding of the complex support needs and vulnerabilities that families may present with to the service.

Due to the citywide coverage of the service, candidates must commit to regular travel between different Edinburgh locations and be confident working independently at times. The post holder will also be required to assertively develop and maintain links with relevant partner agencies in the wider community, to ensure that families receive holistic support.
