About Partick Thistle Charitable Trust

Partick Thistle Charitable Trust (PTCT) is the official charitable arm of Partick Thistle FC.

We use the power of football and sport to improve lives across Glasgow, delivering programmes that support health and wellbeing, education, inclusion and community cohesion. Our work engages children, young people, adults and older people from diverse backgrounds, with a strong focus on those facing disadvantage.

Role Purpose

The Community Engagement Manager will lead the delivery of our Stand Up, Speak Out project and oversee the development, coordination and delivery of community engagement activity across Firhill, Springburn and the wider north of Glasgow.

The core purpose of the role is to provide support, safe spaces and meaningful opportunities for young people predominantly aged 14–21 within the communities we serve. These young people are from disadvantaged backgrounds, may be facing exclusion, or may be at risk of offending. You will develop, plan and lead sessions within Firhill Stadium, Petershill Park and other community safe spaces, ensuring that young people’s voices shape our work and that they feel valued, included and empowered. This role is funded through the CashBack for Communities scheme.

A key element of the post will be the creation, development and ongoing support of a Youth Panel, enabling local young people to influence PTCT programmes, co-design activities and act as ambassadors for their peers and communities.

The role will also build strong relationships with local residents, community groups, schools, partners and stakeholders; ensure that PTCT programmes are responsive to local needs; and help grow participation, impact and the visibility of the Trust’s work.

Inclusion Scotland is a national network of disabled people, organisations and allies. We are a Disabled People’s Organisation (DPO) – run by disabled people ourselves. This is important because disabled people know best what prevents our full inclusion into Scottish society and what needs to be done to remove the barriers we confront. We know this through our daily lived experience. But too often our voices are not heard.

Our vision is that Scotland is a society fit for disabled people. We seek a fully inclusive Scotland where every person knows and exercises their rights and can live their lives fully as equal, included citizens.

Inclusion Scotland works to achieve positive changes to policy and practice, so that disabled people are fully included throughout all Scottish society as equal citizens.

We support disabled people to participate and to be decision-makers themselves, promoting our equal representation and our right to make choices.

At Inclusion Scotland our approach to diversity is simple: it’s about embracing everyone. From cultivating a culture where all team members can be their best at work, to deploying diversity initiatives that support and welcome all.

We’re working to build a more equitable workplace and society.

We are delighted to have opportunities for new people to join us and want to meet candidates who share our values and commitment to Inclusion Scotland’s mission. Applications from disabled people are particularly welcome.
