Age Scotland is the national charity for older people. We work to improve the lives of everyone over the age of 50 so
that they can love later life.
Sadly, thousands of older people in Scotland feel lonely and isolated and we want you to help change that!
With responsibility for the day-to-day co-ordination of our friendship services, you will help create a culture that
promotes inclusion and diversity, flexibility, productivity, creativity, innovation and growth.
People-centred, you will work closely with the friendship manager and head of information, advice and friendship
services to implement the friendship strategy to attract and retain talent and create an environment where staff
and volunteers feel valued and supported to do their very best.
Living our values, you will approach the role with integrity, while involving, inspiring and empowering our teams, so
together we can create better outcomes for older people in Scotland.
