Facilitating change, setting high-level strategies, developing a brand, driving big ideas through to fruition – for a strategic thinker and savvy communicator, this would be a rewarding role in any large, sector-leading organisation. But, as CrossReach is one of Scotland’s largest voluntary social care providers, this a role with incredible potential. It’s your chance to turn business skills into human impact.
We’re an organisation that is made to make a difference. From a network of 60-plus services, we reach out to help vulnerable people across the country – children and families, adults with learning disabilities, older people in care and those who may have fallen through the cracks in society. It’s vital work, but we believe we can do more. That’s where you come in.
You’ll help lead our strategic development, focusing on areas like marketing, external relations, and business development. So, as well as producing an organisation-wide communications strategy and reviewing our corporate branding tools, you’ll also look at how we manage business opportunities and respond to competitive tenders. As a member of our senior management team, you’ll also have a broader role to play in leading the organisation – with the chance to make your voice heard and contribute to our strategic direction.
It’s a role that demands a true leader, equally adept at managing change and at developing people. With a track record in business development or marketing – ideally within the social care sector – you know all about creating clear corporate communications and driving business effectiveness.
There’s little doubt that it’s a position that comes with real challenge. But you’ll also find a lot of support. Just as you shape our development, we’ll help drive yours – with ongoing training and support for professional qualifications. You’ll find it’s a role that’s rewarding in every sense, as we’ll provide generous benefits including an employer contributory pension, health plan, paid holiday and access to a range of leisure and retail discounts.
Top job! Chief Executive Officer *(female)
- Full time or Part time
- £49,500
- Saheliya Offices, Edinburgh/Glasgow
- Closing 1st August 2022
We are looking to appoint a new CEO who can take this unique organisation to the next level.
Saheliya is a specialist mental health and well-being support organisation for women and girls (12+) living with and/or surviving from experiences of racial inequality compounded by gender-based abuse, living in Scotland. We promote mental well-being by combating the effects of discrimination and abuse, reducing the stigma of mental health, improving access to mainstream services and dismantling the structural inequality that exists for minority ethnic women.
This is an exceptional opportunity to have a lead role in a unique and innovative organisation helping to change the lives of some of Scotland’s most marginalised and at risk women and children and gendered abuse, reducing the stigma of mental illness, and improving access to mainstream services while enabling women to also move on into opportunities for self-development and employment.
Saheliya’s services and partnership work extends through healthcare, housing, education, employment, immigration and access to justice- delivered across Edinburgh, the Lothians, and Greater Glasgow, as well as wider Scotland.
Our current CEO, who has enabled the organisation to flourish, grow and succeed over the past 13 years, will be stepping down from her position this year. We are therefore now seeking an individual who has passion to grasp and act upon our full potential, taking an exceptional organisation to an even higher level.
See attached CEO brief for further information.
*Please note that due to the nature of our work the post is open to women only. (exempt under the Equality Act 2010 (part 1, Schedule 9).
We are seeking to recruit a dynamic and determined individual to lead on the delivery of our new Artificial Intelligence (AI) project. This is an exciting new role in Children’s Parliament, responsible for the successful delivery of a two-year project focused on involving children in the development and delivery of AI in Scotland.
The post will sit in the Children’s Human Rights Defenders (CHRD) Team whose central role is to embed the views, experiences and ideas of children into decision making around policy, practice and legislation in Scotland – demonstrating in practice what United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) implementation looks and feels like for children.
The project will take a rights-based approach to exploring children’s knowledge and understanding of AI and its significance to children’s lives today whilst also having the opportunity to create and test AI concepts.
Once in place, and following induction, the post holder will be able to quickly and effectively take up their role and make a positive contribution to the organisation.
