An exciting opportunity to join our Making it Work for Families team – working in partnership with Clued Up, FIRST and CARF to support families in need in Levenmouth and Kirkcaldy areas. Our Family Learning Coordinator will facilitate opportunities for families to learn, love and laugh together through family support activities and play. Focused on improving family relationships, communication and raising aspirations for the whole family. We are looking for someone creative, fun and innovative!

We are a voluntary sector organisation that provides information, advice and support service to lone parents and families in need all over Fife.

Our aim is simple: to provide accessible, approachable and non-judgemental support, advice and information to lone parents. We are the only voluntary sector organisation in Fife with charitable status that has lone parent families as the primary focus. Based in Glenrothes, we cover the whole of Fife, providing a variety of services to lone parent families, in their local communities.

We seek to empower lone parents and families in need to promote their wellbeing and opportunities. We offer holistic support through our various projects, working at the pace and timescale that is right for the parent to overcome barriers such as poverty, isolation and poor mental health. Throughout all projects our ethos is the same: Engage – Support – Progress.

Trustees are responsible for the financial and corporate governance of Fife Gingerbread. To oversee the running of the organisation and to ensure we comply with charity law, remain financially solvent, and act within our charitable purposes. We also work to develop and improve the organisation so that we can deliver even better services in future.

We have successfully secured funding from Fife Council and BBC Children in Need for a dynamic person to join us. This amazing opportunity is for a “can do” creative person with a passion to ensure that the children have the best start possible and that young parent’s aspirations for the future are met. We are looking for someone who has a sound understanding of the importance of the yearly years, the effects of trauma and the teenage brain.
