Training and Consultancy Manager
- Full time
- £32,101 – £42,861
- Hybrid: Edinburgh
- Closing 25th September 2026
- Advertised from 17th September 2026
- 35 hours per week. This is a one-year fixed-term contract, and continuation depends on further funding. We would also consider a freelance or consultancy arrangement for the right candidate.
Role
Neuroinclusion is rising up the agenda for employers, community organisations, and public sector bodies that want to get it right for their staff and the people they serve. This is a key role in our Business Development team, leading Mindroom’s training and consultancy service, with real scope to build on strong foundations and grow it.
You will design and deliver engaging training online and in person, and provide consultancy on neuroinclusion in the workplace and in designing services for customers and service users. The focus is practical change: what an organisation does differently as a result, rather than awareness raising alone. You will also develop the offer, write proposals, lead corporate engagement, use our CRM to manage the pipeline, and implement monitoring and evaluation so we can show the difference the service makes.
You will bring a strong understanding of neurodivergence, neurodevelopmental conditions, and the neurodiversity movement; substantial experience designing and delivering training; and experience developing or growing a service.
This is a management role in a growing department with a busy and varied workload, so you will be comfortable working independently and shaping the service as it grows.
The role is hybrid, combining home working, attendance at our Edinburgh office and travel to deliver training and consultancy in person. Occasional evening work and overnight stays may be required.
Organisation profile
Founded on lived experience, Mindroom champions all forms of neurodiversity and supports all kinds of minds. Our mission is to improve the quality of life for neurodivergent people by removing barriers, increasing opportunities, and shaping a more accessible world.

This is a new role in our Whole Family Support Fund programme. You will plan, design and deliver peer support groups and social activities for families raising neurodivergent children and young people, across our hub areas in Scotland.
You’ll facilitate groups both online and in person, creating spaces where families can meet others in similar situations, share experiences, and build confidence. You’ll work with our locality teams to design an offer that reflects what families in each area have asked for, and you’ll be supported by volunteers in running sessions.
You will be an experienced group facilitator with a background in peer support, skilled at managing group dynamics and at creating accessible, neuroinclusive spaces that work for parents, carers and neurodivergent people.
Groups may run outside standard office hours, so this post may involve evening and occasional weekend work, along with travel across the delivery areas.
