An exciting opportunity has arisen for a dynamic and experienced manager to oversee the day-to-day management of Cruse Scotland West Area, this includes our teams in Ayrshire & Arran; Dumfries; Dunbartonshire; Glasgow & Greater Glasgow; Lanarkshire and Renfrewshire.

Candidates are required to have excellent interpersonal and organisational skills to provide managerial support, which is often provided from a distance.

Excellent communication skills are essential as the postholder is required to respond effectively to a wide range of enquiries which includes bereaved people. You will be required to establish effective working relationships with a range of Cruse Scotland volunteers and staff, as well as statutory funders and grant making trusts. Experience of volunteer management would be advantageous.

Due to the wide geographical spread of the role, the postholder will be required to travel occasionally to each of the service bases within our West Area; and to other locations within Scotland for meetings and training.

Whilst the role can be hybrid, we have recently secured a new office base in Glasgow so there will be a regular requirement to have a routine presence in the office.

We are looking for a manager to lead our established Community Support and Development team in Aberdeen and Inverness. The post will oversee a team of four staff members (1.6 FTE).

Our targeted homelessness prevention projects are tailored to local needs and work in partnership with churches. We engage with individuals in communities to revitalise areas where the potential for homelessness is a real concern.

The role will involve overseeing a variety of work including the work of an existing Community Development Worker who oversees a drop-in on King Street in Aberdeen, Recovery & Resettlement Workers in Aberdeen and Inverness and a Women and Families Worker based in Torry.

Candidates will require significant experience and passion for working with people from a range of backgrounds including vulnerable individuals and a personal drive to see positive change in lives of people on the margins of society.

The role is open to opportunities for flexible working in conversation with the Director of Homelessness Prevention.
