About the service

Cyrenians values food beyond its role as fuel, it also sustains our mental and emotional health and plays a central role in nurturing connection within communities. This is the basis of our FareShare social enterprise. Our FareShare Central and South-East Scotland depot provides opportunities for people and organisations to access food, improve their health and wellbeing, and to develop skills and confidence.

About the post

This is an exciting opportunity to lead the FareShare Depot into the next phase of its journey. We will be moving to a larger 15,000 sq ft premises where our ambition is to distribute more fit for purpose surplus food to more organisations who work with people experiencing food poverty and food insecurity.

This role will lead on the management and development of the Depot, including our big move. It has responsibility for all delivery and the site itself, as well as ensuring it is managed in line with the organisation’s vision and strategic aims.

About you

You will be a values-led, experienced manager with a balance of excellent leadership skills and strong knowledge of logistics and warehousing.

Your project and financial management skills will be invaluable in driving our depot move forward efficiently, and your pragmatic attitude will be key to solving any problems we encounter on the way.

How we’ll support you

We’ll empower you to work independently, with a supportive senior manager, and experienced property team. We will encourage you to use your creativity to manage the FareShare Depot, innovate new activities and learn on the job.

You will have access to wider Cyrenians support, including our learning and development programme, managers’ network, and staff wellbeing services.
