About Options Fife Housing Support
At Aberlour we listen to understand what our young people want and need within our local area. Our Options Fife
Housing Support service in Glenrothes supports young people with learning disabilities and/or autism to live and
thrive within the local community.
This service will be home to 4 young people aged 16 plus who will all have their own individual flat. Our rota has
been drafted to suit the needs of the young people.
What we are looking for....
We are looking for a part time (25 hours, working 2 x 12.5 hour shifts per week) Young People’s Workers to join our
team. You will play a fundamental role in our young people’s lives to ensure that they get the best possible
experience whilst working towards goals in their care plan. Using a person-centred approach, you will provide
enabling support ensuring the highest level of physical and emotional care, supporting our young people in their
daily living and within the local community.
If you have an interest in working with young people, we would like to hear from you. Ideally, candidates will have
social care experience, understanding of autism, complex needs and disability. You will hold, or be willing to
work towards, a relevant professional qualification at SCQF level 7 or above (for example: SVQ3 Care plus an

reach their potential. If you share the same vision, we want you to
join our team. To have a look at our values to understand more about what we are looking for from our employees
