Full Description

Transforming the lives of those to whom all of us owe an enormous debt.


Combat Stress has been in existence since 1919 and, without doubt, provides a life-changing and, on occasion, life saving service.

For more than a century it has provided support to veterans from every service and every conflict.

On average, it takes a veteran 13 years to ask for help after leaving their job and, for many, it is their darkest hour and they're in a crisis situation.

Combat Stress offers specialist support to deal with mental health conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety and depression. It offers a range of services and therapy programmes across the UK. In Scotland, it offers residential and community-based care, together with online services, delivered by multi-disciplinary teams working across Scotland.


The charity is at an exciting time of its growth and is seeking a Head of Operations for Scotland who will provide forward thinking and inspirational leadership throughout this period and beyond.


You must be a registered professional, perhaps in occupational therapy, social work, mental health nursing, or clinical or counselling psychology, who can provide the highest quality strategic and operational leadership for Combat Stress in Scotland.

The post holder will be the senior manager responsible for both representing and promoting Combat Stress across the country, building positive and productive relationships with statutory and third sector colleagues.


This is a role with considerable breadth and will exert change both within the charity and at a national level.

You will have the opportunity to influence Scottish Government policy, represent Scotland at UK wide events and contribute to the growth and development of a national organisation.

In addition, you will gain experience and expertise in the delivery of trauma-informed focused services, provide leadership for a multi-site national service ensuring regional equity, and provide high quality, effective and evidence-based care to Scotland's veterans.
