About Aberlour’s New Family Advice and Community Connection Service
We are providing early support and advice to families who may feel they have become a bit stuck or who are looking for some information, advice, signposting or referrals to other services.
All families with children under the age of 18, living in Perth and Kinross, can contact us directly to access our new service. Working alongside families, we will offer personalised support on family matters, when they need it most, in locations to suit them.
As part of this team, you would provide a service and lifeline for these families.
What we are looking for
We are looking for an experienced, adaptable individual who can bring fresh, innovative and flexible approaches to family support. Working 37.5 hours per week, applicants must be flexible in order to deliver support at times that meet the families' and communities' needs, which may include out of hours (early mornings, evenings and weekends).
You will work alongside statutory and other agencies to achieve positive outcomes for children, young people, and their families.
You are someone who will have strong communication, teamwork, planning and decision-making skills, along with a compassionate nature to understand the necessity of best practice and thrive on helping children and families overcome the challenges presented by everyday modern life.
At Aberlour, we want to make sure every child, young person and family has the support and opportunity they need to thrive and reach their potential.
