Fife Voluntary Action (FVA) is looking for a Development Officer to support in designing, delivering and coordinating a programme of co-production activity relevant to improving experiences and outcomes for employability clients in Fife. You will review and identify gaps in relation to the voice of Lived Experience in employability provision in Fife, and recruit and support volunteers to contribute to co-production projects. You will also provide relevant administrative support.
For this post, we understand Lived Experience to mean that an individual has some experience of barriers to employability and employment. These barriers may be structural, such as transport, housing, childcare or personal, for example, physical or mental health, disability, language or cultural issues. Whilst personal lived experience will be helpful, this is not essential.
