GSC Auldhouse is seeking an ambitious and enterprising General Manager to lead the next stage of our development.

Based at the home of Giffnock Soccer Centre — Scotland’s largest grassroots football club, with more than 1,400 players and 200 volunteer coaches — GSC Auldhouse is a charity with a clear purpose: to harness the power of football and our outstanding facilities to create opportunities for people and communities across Glasgow and the west of Scotland.

With £1.3 million invested in the development of our GSC Auldhouse base, and successful community programmes already supporting children, families, women and people who are new to Scotland, the foundations are firmly in place. We now need an inspiring, commercially minded leader who can turn that potential into sustainable growth.

Working closely with our Board, the General Manager will shape and deliver our social-outreach strategy, develop new funding and commercial partnerships, maximise income from our facilities and oversee the continued development of the Giffnock Soccer Centre Academy.

This is a rare opportunity to combine strategic leadership with hands-on delivery — helping to establish GSC Auldhouse as grassroots football’s leading provider of sport, health, inclusion and employability programmes.

Women’s Aid South Lanarkshire & East Renfrewshire (WASLER) is a voluntary organisation providing refuge accommodation, support, information and advice to women, children and young people across South Lanarkshire and East Renfrewshire who are currently experiencing, or have experienced, domestic abuse.

We are looking for a Senior Operations Manager to play a key leadership role in the safe, effective and consistent delivery of WASLER’s frontline services. Working closely with the CEO and senior leadership team, this role will provide strategic and operational oversight across all core service areas.

This is an important, new, senior role for someone who can support managers, strengthen accountability, monitor quality and risk, and contribute to continuous service improvement while keeping women, children and young people at the centre of service delivery.

About the role

• Provide strategic and operational oversight across WASLER’s frontline service areas.
• Support the CEO and senior leadership team to deliver agreed priorities, policies and service developments.
• Lead, coach and support Team Managers through supervision, appraisal, performance management and workforce planning.
• Monitor service performance, outcomes, quality standards and operational risks.
• Support compliance with safeguarding, trauma-informed practice, Care Inspectorate, SSSC, health and safety, data protection and organisational requirements.
• Build effective relationships with partners, funders and stakeholders, and provide clear reporting to the CEO, Board and others as required.

About you

You will bring experience of managing or supervising staff within a support, care, social welfare or related service, together with the ability to coordinate safe and consistent service delivery. Experience of managing managers, leading across more than one service area, supporting change, quality assurance, audit activity, partnership working or budget monitoring would be particularly valuable.

You will have strong communication, organisational and decision-making skills, and a clear commitment to woman-centred, trauma-informed, inclusive and reflective practice. A good understanding of domestic abuse, safeguarding and the needs of women, children and young people is essential.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a thriving national charity, as part of a high-performing, ambitious Business Development team. You will use a wide range of commercial and interpersonal skills to develop the way our services support children, young people and families.

You will need to be a good writer, communicating ideas effectively on paper with an ability to analyse large volumes of information to develop clear and compelling responses to tenders. It is critical that you can build strong relationships with internal and external stakeholders to support the development of proposals and service design.

You will manage all aspects of proposals and tenders, leading the development and delivery of bids, working to deadlines, ensuring that we present strong business cases and bids that underpin successful outcomes. In addition, there will be the opportunity to help us develop new services and innovations in priority growth areas, monitor market intelligence, assess commercial and contract risks and work alongside operational colleagues in Children's Services.

Your project management skills may have been developed in any sector, and may need further development, but your commitment to the work we do will be demonstrated by your enthusiasm and ability to learn. In Business Development we are a supportive team, with stimulating and challenging work and extensive opportunities to learn and to help Barnardo's transform the lives of the UK's most vulnerable children.

These roles will operate on a 'Work from Anywhere' basis, meaning that you can work both from home and/or from an office 'hub' that's nearest to where you live. Some travel across Scotland and Northern Ireland may be required.

Barnardo's believe in creating equality of opportunity in the workplace and supporting people to manage their work-life balance; we are therefore open to offering flexible working arrangements.
