We’re looking for a Project Worker to join our team delivering a new Whole Family Wellbeing Fund Project. We will be delivering a variety of support to families of neurodivergent children and young people to support family well-being. This includes online information sessions, group work, facilitated peer support and 1:1 reflective space. This is part of a collaborative project working alongside colleagues from NHS, City of Edinburgh Council and the Voluntary Sector.

Tailor Ed is a dedicated team of passionate and skilled professionals whose wish is to see neurodivergent children and young people and their families empowered and included, able to live the lives they want to and access all the day to day experiences that other families take for granted. We are looking for staff to help us deliver our high-quality services to families across Edinburgh. We require confident practitioners, skilled at forming relationships with neurodivergent children and young people and their families, as well as with professionals in the voluntary and statutory sectors. We need excellent communicators dedicated to supporting families so they can experience better outcomes at home and for life.

Children’s Wellbeing Service

Are you a passionate and dynamic individual with the skills to deliver ECHC’s Haven wellbeing and resilience outreach programme. You will work alongside sessional workers, artists and volunteers, under the guidance of the Wellbeing and Resilience Officer. Your role will be to provide support and advice to children, young people and their families (CYPF). You will deliver activities that build confidence and self-esteem, using wellbeing and resilience CBT techniques enabling CYPF to better cope with their individual challenges.

Edinburgh Children’s Hospital Charity have developed a new and exciting project which supports the wellbeing and resilience of children and young people who are struggling with their mental health. This project supports the whole family (child, parents/guardian, siblings, grandparents etc.) through these challenging times, by offering support and advice.

We are looking for someone who is educated to HND level in a relevant subject (youth work, social work, nursing, counselling/psychology, teaching, mental health) and must have experience in delivering high quality youth work to children and young people. This is a demanding role within a fun and fast paced organisation. The right candidate will be passionate about working for a children’s and young people’s healthcare charity and possess the drive and skills to balance a varied workload and achieve objectives.

Are you passionate about community development and working with communities to use their own assets to make a real difference to improving community life? An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Volunteer Coordinator to join our great team at WATIF to help us advance our vision of being a beautiful and vibrant place, with a great quality of life for all. We are currently going through a period of growth with exciting plans for the development of our community projects within our area.

Our ideal candidate will have experience of working with volunteers, although this is not essential. More importantly you will be a great communicator with fantastic organisational skills, who will play a key part in looking after our volunteers, helping them to grow and ensuring our volunteering processes run smoothly and efficiently. You will be self-motivated with a naturally collaborative working style; and thrive working in a small, enthusiastic team making a difference to community life.

Working with the WATIF team, the Volunteer Coordinator is responsible for coordinating all aspects of volunteering and supporting the effective development and delivery of community projects across the organisation.

You will help to support and retain volunteers to deliver our services and projects – leading on volunteer recruitment, communication, logistics and stewardship with a commitment to equality and inclusion as well as healthy and safe working practices. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds.
