The vacancy

Sight Scotland Veterans is looking for an Activity Worker / Driver to join our team at the Linburn Centre on a part-time basis (30 hours per week). In this role, you will deliver and support a varied programme of activities. You will encourage veterans to try new experiences, develop skills and engage with others in a person-centred and accessible way.

You will also contribute to planning and developing new activities and events, supporting the day-to-day running of the service and working closely with colleagues and volunteers to ensure a high standard of delivery. Driving and/or escorting duties are part of the role, so a full UK driving licence is essential.

This is a hands-on and rewarding opportunity for someone who is organised, approachable and confident in motivating others. You should have strong communication and organisational skills, good IT knowledge and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team. Experience in a social care, recreational or community setting would be advantageous.

If you are passionate about supporting others and want to be part of a service that makes a real difference to people’s lives, we would love to hear from you.

You don’t need to meet every single requirement to be a great candidate. Most people learn parts of the job once they’re in post, so if a role interests you and you believe you could grow into it, we’d love to hear from you.

We’re committed to fair, accessible recruitment. If you need any adjustments, like extra time, a different format, or other support, at any stage of the process, just let us know. Please contact People and Culture on 0131 378 2793 or via peopleand culture@sightscotland.org.uk who can arrange for any support you need.

About us

For more than 230 years we've been supporting and empowering people with sight loss to live fulfilling lives. We’re proud of what we’ve achieved, but we want to do more. We will build on our rich history to create an organisation which is prepared for the future, and ready to respond to the needs of people impacted by vision loss.

Our vision is bold. We want to be at the leading edge of positive societal change by:
•   Investing our funds in the support that makes the biggest difference
•   Putting our community at the heart of what we do
•   Campaigning for change
•   Accelerating prevention and treatment of eye conditions
•   Fostering a collaborative culture of innovation and learning

We're determined that no-one should face sight loss alone. We're committed to improving, diversifying and growing our services to make sure we can reach many more people with sight loss - when and where they need us.

Our organisational values - Transform, Unite and Thrive - underpin all the work we do at Sight Scotland and Sight Scotland Veterans.
