Change Mental Health (CMH) is a leading national mental health charity providing unique support to people with severe and enduring mental ill health. With over 50 years’ experience across Scotland, we believe people affected by poor mental health and illness deserve the highest quality of support in the community and that every person has the right to be valued and to share in the opportunities, challenges, and joys of everyday life.

The Fife Housing Association Alliance (FHAA) is a long-standing partnership between four housing associations based in Fife: Kingdom Housing Association, Fife Housing Group, Ore Valley and Glen Housing Associations. Working collaboratively, the Alliance enables the four organisations to share expertise, strengthen strategic planning, and deliver improved services for tenants and communities across Fife.

• Identify community service gaps and collaborate with your manager to develop solutions, working independently with sound judgment and initiative.
• Build positive working relationships with local partners to better support service users and promote the work of CMH.

General Duties:

• Maintain accurate and up-to-date records, ensuring confidentiality is upheld for all individuals using the service.
• Collate relevant information and prepare reports for line management as required.
• Ensure continuity of service delivery in line with CMH’s values and strategic outcomes.
• Oversee and support the fulfilment of Health and Safety responsibilities within practice settings, ensuring compliance with legal and organisational standards.

Essential Criteria:

• Educated to SVQ 3 level or have experience working in mental health
