Clyde Scouts is one of the largest Scout charities in Scotland, supporting thousands of young people and volunteers across the west of Scotland. Our purpose is to help young people gain Skills for Life through adventure, teamwork, leadership, outdoor learning and personal development.

We support local Scout Groups and Districts through governance, training, safeguarding, programme support and operational services. This gives volunteers the confidence, tools and support they need to deliver great experiences in their communities.

Clyde Scouts operates Auchengillan Outdoor Centre, one of Scotland’s leading outdoor activity centres, and the Glasgow Scout Shop. We also provide support services across the region, helping Scouting remain accessible, inclusive and sustainable for future generations.

Accurate, well-controlled financial administration is an important part of that mission. As Accounts Assistant, you will help ensure resources reach local groups, centres, volunteers and activities, enabling Clyde Scouts to deliver its purpose responsibly and effectively.

The Accounts Assistant plays an important role in maintaining strong financial controls and supporting the effective operation of Clyde Scouts. You will help keep day-to-day finance activity accurate, timely and well organised, working closely with colleagues and contacts across the organisation. Your work will support charitable activities across the region, give colleagues reliable financial information and help Clyde Scouts use its resources responsibly. It is a practical role with real purpose: good financial administration helps the people, places and programmes that make Scouting possible. You will bring care, consistency and a helpful approach to a varied workload, while developing your understanding of charity finance and the wider work of Clyde Scouts.

Who Cares? Scotland is Scotland’s only national independent membership organisation for Care Experienced people. Our strategic vision is to secure a lifetime of equality, respect, and love for Care Experienced people in Scotland.

At the heart of Who Cares? Scotland’s work are the rights of Care Experienced people, and the power of their voices to bring about positive change. We provide individual lifelong relationship-based independent advocacy and a range of local and national participatory and engagement opportunities for Care Experienced people across Scotland. We work alongside Corporate Parents and communities to broaden understanding and create change. We work with policy makers, leaders, and elected representatives locally and nationally to shape law, policy, and practice, working together to build on the aspirations of The Promise and secure positive change.

The post holder will work directly with children and young people with experience of care, in an individual relationship-based advocacy role, and within participation and group activity across East Lothian. This unique role requires you to listen to what children and young people with experience of care say and support them to ensure their rights are upheld and their voices are heard in the processes of making decisions about their lives. You will also help facilitate a broad range of participatory and engagement opportunities and create the conditions for collective advocacy.

The right candidate for this post will be brilliant at forming positive relationships with children and young people. You will have excellent interpersonal and communication skills, both written and verbal, adaptable to a wide range of contexts. You will enjoy working collaboratively with partners. You will be committed to children’s rights, inclusive working, equal opportunities, and believe that all young people can make transformative change happen in their lives if given the opportunity.

Flexibility will be required given the remit of the role. Some evening and weekend work will be necessary, as will a full driving licence and access to transport.

While we would welcome the knowledge gathered through relevant qualifications, we are just as interested in relevant work experience. We welcome and encourage applications from those with experience of care.

The successful candidate will be joining Who Cares? Scotland at an exciting time, when the voices of those who are in or have experienced care are growing in power, individually and collectively – bringing with them insight, challenge, hope and change.

If this sounds like the role for you, we would love to hear from you. To arrange an informal conversation about this opportunity, please contact Ray MacLean, Advocacy and Participation Manager on rmaclean@whocaresscotland.org
