Job Description Job Title Location Salary banding Benefits Contracted hours and FTE hours Report to Community Caseworker Community Renewal Rom Romeha - Govanhill Govanhill, Glasgow Pay band B2-1 to B2-5 FTE £24,733.80 to £28,683.60 Pro Rata 17.5 hours £12,366.90 to £14,341.60 Depending on experience Employer pension contribution. 36 days annual leave pro rata Free Access to Health Assured Employee Assistance Programme and online Health Portal. Loyalty scheme with up to 48 additional days leave. 2 posts x 17.5 hours per week Would consider full time for the right person Neighbourhood Manager ROMA EMPLOYABILITY CASEWORKER Do you want to help make a difference to Roma Community Members Lives? Do you want to challenge discrimination and poverty? Are you passionate about making change happen? Then we really want you to apply for this role! Applicants should apply by sending their C.V. which should be no more than 2 pages and a cover letter/email to recruitment@communityrenewal.org.uk Please note that applicants must be able to speak a language relevant to the Roma community members e.g. Slovak/Romanian. ROLE SUMMARY This role will combine providing one-to-one casework and supporting community engagement activities across the Govanhill neighbourhood of Glasgow. Community engagement includes working with community groups and arranging community events. Close coordination with a wider team providing community engagement and community casework is essential. We have some preference for people who could add some specialist knowledge around either health, welfare advice or employability (including employer engagement), however, this is desirable rather than essential. This role is ideal for someone at any stage in their career who can demonstrate their ability to provide whole-person whole-neighbourhood support. We are looking for people who can quickly learn our methodology and who can help build on people’s strengths and foster their resilience/self-care. INTRODUCING COMMUNITY RENEWAL TRUST Community Renewal is a dynamic and innovative organisation at the cutting-edge of work towards ending persistent poverty and inequity in Scotland. We work in deprived communities where we have been long-established to develop, deliver and share better approaches based around whole-person, whole-neighbourhood support. This means we 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. A set of core values guides all the work of Community Renewal: • The most important element of any support relationship is listening to what the person wants deep down and working alongside them to achieve it • To stay alongside people for as long as it takes • Many people find it hard to articulate what they want at first and so need to be able to experience an environment of trust and safety in order to uncover buried aspirations – this cannot be rushed • People don’t resist change – they resist being changed. • People in deprived communities already know what is required to improve their lives – what they need is help with how to make it happen. • Compassionate listening is a basic human need and is central to the way that we engage with people. • Every individual and community has assets • Sustainable transformation in communities is possible but needs a long-term commitment. Pennywell/Muirhouse A team of around fifty staff we deliver community services based around three key neighbourhoods: (Edinburgh), Govanhill’s Roma (Glasgow). The full Community Renewal Group consists of the lead charity Community Renewal Trust SCIO plus four subsidiaries: Caledonia Funeral Aid CIC, Community Renewal Rom Romeha (registered as Roma Life CIC), Pennywell Community Renewal Trust SCIO and Community Renewal Training & Consultancy Ltd.
