If so this role could be for you!

About the service

Based within Cyrenians' Community Learning Hub in Falkirk, the services under this role span three key areas: young people's services, community links and homelessness prevention, and specialist mental health support.

Together, these services support people across Forth Valley to overcome barriers, reduce social isolation, improve wellbeing and build stronger connections within their communities. Working closely with partners across health, education and the third sector, the teams help people access opportunities, navigate challenges and move towards positive outcomes.

About the role

As Service Manager, you will lead a team of outreach practitioners, working closely with partners across health, social care, justice, employability and community services, you will ensure services are delivered safely, effectively and in line with Cyrenians' values.

You will support staff to deliver high quality practice, oversee service performance and contribute to the development and sustainability of our work through partnership building, monitoring impact and identifying opportunities for growth.

This is a varied and rewarding role that combines people management, partnership working and service leadership, helping to shape and develop services across Forth Valley.

About you

You will be a collaborative and supportive leader who understands the value of partnership working and building strong relationships to achieve the best outcomes. With experience of leading teams, you will be committed to creating a positive culture where staff feel empowered and supported in their roles.

You will take a person-centred approach, both in supporting your team and in ensuring the people we work alongside receive high-quality support tailored to their individual needs. You will also be confident in demonstrating the impact of your work through reports, presentations, meetings and funding applications.

How we’ll support you

You’ll be working as part of a supportive management team, with opportunities to work closely with experienced colleagues across our Justice and Inclusion pillar, the wider organisation, and external partners. We encourage shared learning, creativity and collaboration, and you’ll be supported to make a positive impact for the people and communities we serve.

You’ll have access to regular support and supervision, opportunities for professional development, and wider Cyrenians support, including our learning and development programme and staff wellbeing services.

We’re looking for an energetic and creative Community Fundraising & Volunteering professional to help put Four Square at the heart of our local community. You’ll be the person making connections. From volunteers and local supporters to schools, businesses, community groups and corporate partners, you'll be inspiring people to get involved and support our work.

This is a varied, hands-on role where no two days will look quite the same. One day you could be developing a new corporate volunteering partnership, the next planning a fundraising event, creating engaging social media content, supporting our fantastic volunteers or sharing the stories that demonstrate the difference Four Square makes.

If you’re proactive, full of ideas, confident building relationships and excited by the opportunity to grow a community of people who want to make a difference, we’d love to hear from you.

About Connect2

Connect2 is a Christian support charity working across Forth Valley. We support people and families affected by addiction and other life challenges.

We believe change often takes time. We aim to walk alongside people with compassion, dignity, consistency and hope, helping them build trust and take positive steps forward.

About the role

We are looking for a Women’s Coordinator to lead and develop our women’s recovery pathway across Forth Valley and surrounding areas.

This is a practical, people-focused role. You will build trusting relationships with women and help them take steps towards safety, stability, recovery and long-term support.

The women’s pathway has three main stages:

Reach and trust – meeting women through referrals, outreach, community links and safe first conversations.

Structured support– offering one-to-one support, follow-up, group support and practical next steps.

Ongoing belonging– help women identify their needs, strengths, risks, goals and next steps, and connect them with appropriate Connect2 support, statutory and local services, community support or rehab pathways where appropriate.

You will:

• receive, review and follow up referrals;

• provide one-to-one support to women;

• meet women in appropriate community settings;

• help women access Connect2 and other suitable support;

• take part in some evening outreach and community work;

• support female volunteers;

• build good working relationships with churches, local services and partner organisations;

• help create safe, welcoming women-focused and women-only spaces; and

• keep clear and accurate records.

Although the main focus of the role is supporting women, you will also work as part of the wider Connect2 team in some mixed outreach and community settings.

• has a heart for women who may be vulnerable, marginalised or facing difficult life circumstances;

• is good at building trusting relationships;

Essential requirements

• Female post-holder required because of the women-focused and women-only elements of the role and the vulnerability of the women being supported.

• Willingness to work flexibly, including some evenings and weekends.
• Willingness to take part in appropriate Connect2 outreach and community activities.
• PVG Scheme membership / appropriate Disclosure Scotland check will be required.

This role has occupational requirements for the post-holder to be female and to have an active Christian faith, due to the women-focused nature of the role and Connect2’s Christian ethos.

We are looking for an individual with the passion and commitment to provide high-quality one-to-one and group support for women who have experienced, or are experiencing, domestic abuse.

You will join a dedicated team of Women, Family, Children and Young People Practitioners who bring a wealth of skills and experience to their roles and take pride in delivering timely, effective, and person-centred support to those who use our services.

If you have a strong commitment to this area of work; if you value integrity, compassion, and teamwork; if you want to work in an inclusive and supportive environment; and if you have a feminist understanding of domestic abuse and its causes and impacts, then this could be the next career opportunity for you.

We look forward to hearing from you.
