About the Role


As Scotland's national mental health charity, SAMH has kept a pulse on the external factors affecting wellbeing in the workplace, including the ongoing cost-of-living crisis and the aftermath of the pandemic.

While many businesses and organisations have met these pressures with an increased commitment to their employees' mental health, embedding this commitment into an organisational strategy is nuanced and complex.

In response to this cultural shift, SAMH has invested in a newly expanded Workplace & Corporate Engagement Team that is supporting the increasingly diverse needs of Scottish employers and workforce regarding mental health and wellbeing.

Our Workplace & Corporate Engagement Team cultivates transformational, mutually beneficial partnerships with Scottish businesses and organisations through four main functions:

  • Development of workplace wellbeing products, services and resources
  • Delivery of services via digital and facetoface channels
  • Engagement of organisations to invest in the mental health cause
  • Account Management of clients and partners


The role of Workplace Engagement Specialist sits in our Engagement function and has a focus on business development, securing; corporate partnerships, significant new corporate financial support and large scale training contracts.
