Role
Community Renewal TRUST
Community Renewal is a dynamic and innovative organisation at the cutting-edge of work towards ending persistent poverty in Scotland.
Community Renewal works among deprived communities to develop, deliver and share better approaches to unlocking flourishing lives and flourishing neighbourhoods. These approaches always place people and communities in the lead: listening to them, identifying their strengths, supporting them on their terms, and building their capacity to flourish.
Community Renewal alleviates poverty by engaging and forming trusting relationships with individuals, whole families and whole communities together then supporting them by combining holistic case management (e.g. around income, work, health, wellness) with community development (e.g. forming new community activities/groups). This work is about testing change which can inform policy, be scaled up or replicated to achieve a much greater impact than our direct delivery alone.
THE ROLE
This post will be covering work that is delivered in Muirhouse primarily but also West Pilton and surrounding streets.
The Neighbourhood Manager has a particular role in line managing a range of staff with different areas of expertise who deliver community services for local residents (e.g. employability, health case management, community development etc). The Neighbourhood Manager is initially expected to line manage Community Renewal staff within Muirhouse. You will play a key role in coordinating activities across the team, especially in terms of community engagement, community events, the Pennywell Pantry and ensuring premises are welcoming and accessible.
We invite applications from committed individuals, who thrive on working with communities.
Application notes
