Are you looking for a role where you make a real difference to people’s lives?

If so, this may be the perfect opportunity for you!

About the service

Cyrenians values food beyond its role as fuel, it also sustains our mental and emotional health and plays a central role in nurturing connection within communities. This is the basis of our FareShare social enterprise. Our FareShare Central and South-East Scotland depot provides opportunities for people and organisations to access food, improve their health and wellbeing, and to develop skills and confidence.

You will work as part of the wider FareShare Depot team to support individuals to engage in our employability programme and reach their full potential. Your main duties will involve:

  • Delivering employability workshops to a wide range of clients
  • Engage with organisations to promote our Employability programme and secure job opportunities for clients
  • Continually monitor and evaluate the employability programme

About you

You will be a values-led, experienced employability worker who engages well with people and demonstrates enthusiasm and commitment. You should also be:

  • Experienced in delivering training or employability programmes
  • Great at building relationships with partner organisations
  • Excellent at planning and managing your own workload

How we’ll support you

We’ll empower you to work independently, with a supportive manager, and our experienced depot operations team. We will encourage you to use your initiative to deliver the programme, innovate new activities and learn on the job.

You will have access to wider Cyrenians support, including our learning and development programme and staff wellbeing services.
