Neighbourhood Networks is a registered Scottish Charity with 20 year’s experience of facilitating peer support networks with vulnerable adults across the Central Belt of Scotland.

Neighbourhood Networks encourages people to think about how they might come together to help each other. We work with people who may be isolated or at risk of isolation within their communities. This may be as a result of a learning disability, poor mental health, a physical disability, sensory impairment or as a result of a variety of other circumstances.

We currently have a vacancy for a Network Manager. The role involves the day to day management of up to 3 networks ensuring Community Living Workers provide a high standard of service to network members.

We are looking for a flexible, energetic and resilient person who is committed to the vision, mission and values of the organisation. The post holder will display a can do attitude and be passionate about supporting members of the network to achieve outcomes and their full potential with a focus on peer support and developing connections in the local communities where the network is based.

You will be involved in supporting the development of local member networks alongside your manager ensuring members are supported to achieve positive life outcomes and lead the life they choose.

You will advocate for members, support and facilitate group activities, play a part in helping members utilise, share and develop their skills and promote active citizenship & social inclusion.
