About Aberlour Early Intervention Family Support Service Glasgow:


Our Aberlour Early Intervention Family Support Service, based in Glasgow will work in partnership with children and young people (aged 12 years and under) and their families to develop relationship-based, strengths-focused whole family support.


What we are looking for
:


As a Family Support Worker you will develop a person-centred working relationship with your families, based on a model of 'VOICE, VALIDATION and HOPE'.

As a Family Support Worker, you will work directly with families to build on their existing strengths and interests, help children and families build skills and confidence and strengthen community connections.

Our ambition is to help children, young people and families feel safe, confident, capable, and included, offering support when it is needed, including evenings and weekends.

We believe in working alongside families, empowering them to lead positive change in their own lives in a variety of settings including family homes, schools, and within the community,


Ideally you will hold a relevant professional qualification at SCQF level 7 or above, together with relevant experience of working directly with children or young people and their families.


Not afraid to test new ways of working, you will bring a fresh, caring, and collaborative approach which recognises strengths and responds empathically to the needs of children, young people, and their families - this will include early mornings, evenings, and weekend work.


At Aberlour we want to make sure every child and young person has the love, support and opportunity they need to reach their potential.

If you share the same vision, we want you to join our team.


What we offer
:


As well as a supportive team and excellent training opportunities, we want all our employees to feel valued and rewarded for the vital work they do.

When you work with us, we'll recognise your efforts with generous annual leave, an excellent employer pension scheme and a range of deals and discounts across various retailers.


Aberlour is committed to the safeguarding and welfare of all our service users and uses a thorough and rigorous recruitment and selection process including PVG Scheme checks to ensure this commitment is not compromised.
