This is an exciting time for MACS as we continue to grow both our membership and our service offerings. Things are developing quickly as after a Covid induced hiatus, we are recommencing implementation of our ground-breaking and transformational ambitions strategy ‘Confident and Connected’.

To help drive this transformation we are looking for an experienced manager to lead our fundraising activities across the UK and build a diverse and sustainable funding base. This is a crucial role for MACS and you will spearhead our small but enthusiastic fundraising team to deliver year on year income growth; introduce new income streams and provide an amazing experience for our donors or potential donors.

What is important is that you are a team player with a ‘can-do’ approach and a good sense of humour.

If you think you fit the bill, please get in touch – we’d really love to hear from you.

Our team of 20-25 staff members – almost all of us BPoC young people – aim to make IYS a community space, a source of support and a champion for all BPoC children and young people in Scotland.

We centre anti-racism and the experiences of BPoC young people in schools, at work and in personal lives through our Education, Restless Natives and Youth Work programmes. Our governmental and sectoral advocacy is an extension of these priorities, which focuses on upending the entrenched inequalities and structural exclusion that have cut BPoC young people out of decision-making that shapes our lives. When IYS join these spaces of decision-making, we are often the only people present directly engaged and connected into the lives of BPoC young people. Our growing presence in Scotland emanates from this unique position – as both an advocacy organisation and community-oriented organisation.

In response to our dramatic growth over the past year, IYS has restructured our organisation to better reflect our unique profile and ambition for change. This includes the development of the new Advocacy & Partnerships work area, and the Head of Advocacy & Partnerships senior leadership role.

We’re here to provide consistent, friendly and informed support so that people can explore options and take ‘the next step’ towards a positive future. We welcome people with a wide range of skills and experiences to our team – including those who have lived through homelessness. To make a difference we need to work flexibly, with everyday-leadership, humour and a ‘can do’ spirit. We want to make it easy, make it right, and make it happen – not only for the people we support, but also for each other. Our #OneTeam ethos is core to who we are, and it means caring for and supporting each other regardless of our role, service or location. This is how we roll. We want people who share these values to join us and become a part of the Simon Community Scotland family.

Are you as passionate as we are about providing high quality, safe accommodation to women experiencing homelessness? If the answer is yes we are looking for you to join us and work within a fast-paced dedicated team who have a woman-centred approach that focuses on safety and recovery.
