Description

Financial Wellbeing and Energy Advice Worker

Caring for a child with a life shortening condition can bring with it unexpected financial responsibilities which may lead to poverty and hardship.

These include increased care costs, increased energy costs and the possibility of a parent needing to stop working to become a fulltime carer.

Children's Hospices Across Scotland (CHAS) have recently been awarded grant funding from British Gas Energy Trust (BGET) for the next two years to develop a team who will support families across Scotland during the cost of living crisis.

Recruitment to these exciting new posts will further enhance the support CHAS provides at an extremely difficult time families.

We are currently recruiting financial wellbeing and energy advice workers, who will work directly with families to provide comprehensive financial wellbeing advice (including energy), to maximise the money available to them.

As a Financial Wellbeing Advisor, you will be joining an enthusiastic, energetic, experienced, and supportive team, with a collaborative and hardworking culture.

You will work as part of our existing Family Support Teams in our two hospices (Rachel House and Robin House), as well as our teams in Inverness and Aberdeen.
