The post involves blended working between home, meetings in the designated workplaces and occasional requirement for attendance at Paths for All offices in Stirling, for which expenses would be paid.

There is the opportunity for the post holder to either live on Shetland or to be based remotely with regular travel to the workplaces on the islands.

Are you someone with a passion for physical activity?

Do you have the enthusiasm and energy to pass that passion on to others and help get them more active?

Do you want to be part of an exciting new initiative to get people moving more?

Paths for All is a Scottish Charity. We have a clear focus. We want to get Scotland walking: Everyone. Everyday. Everywhere. Our vision is for Scotland to be a walking nation. We want everyone to have the opportunity to be active every day, creating a happier, healthier and greener Scotland. A key element of this work involves encouraging behaviour change and participation in daily activity through the right programmes, infrastructure and community opportunities.

This exciting and impactful role is part of a brand new project which aims to get more people walking and travelling actively in Shetland. It will involve working in partnership with agreed workplaces including NHS Shetland and Shetland Islands Council. The development officer will spend much of their time working with these workplaces to promote and encourage walking. This will include the development and roll out a high-quality programme of surveys, travel planning and walking interventions (such as the Step Count Challenge vimeo.com/402957376 ).

The first task, supported by the Workplaces Senior Development Officer will be delivering a workplace assessment in each workplace before developing a programme of incentives, promotions and encouragement based on the barriers identified within the initial assessment. It will also be important to identify and recruit volunteer workplace champions as the programme progresses. The initial focus and the key skills required will be around building relationships, recruiting volunteers and carrying out the assessments before delivering targeted interventions.

Above all we want someone with a passion for physical activity and the enthusiasm and energy to pass that passion on to others and help get them more active. If this is you then we would love to talk to you about the role. If you would like to discuss this role further, please contact Andrea Partridge by email andrea.partridge@pathsforall.org.uk
