Change-makers sought Do you want to help Scotland to Keep The Promise?

We're looking for an innovative and experienced professional to help us improve the lives of children, young people and care leavers by supporting the stability and security all children and young people have a right to.

We're looking for someone to be part of our Children's Services Implementation team who'll bring passion, insight and expertise to our work, focused on making effective family support and, where needed, high quality alternative care available to children and young people, their families and carers.

This role will actively work alongside partners and stakeholders to create the readiness and conditions necessary to support transformational change.

Do you have experience of working within the children's care and protection sector? Can you demonstrate a deep understanding of and commitment to the change and improvement set out in the Promise Change Plan, and respecting lived experience of care? Are you passionate about using a range of improvement approaches to make this happen?

You will have an appropriate professional qualification/relevant degree, with substantial practical experience and evidence of successful collaborative working, including preferably experience of using an improvement and implementation approach.

As a leading improvement and innovation centre in Scotland, CELCIS works to improve the lives of children and young people in need of care and protection, their families and carers.

We do this by supporting people and organisations responsible for their care to make changes in services and in the practices and skills they use, all based on the needs and experiences of children and young people.

Funding for the post:

Like for all colleagues in the team, this post is initially funded for 12 months, with a further year of funding indicated by Scottish Government.

CELCIS has received funding in this way from Scottish Government since 2010 where we agree our funding level every year, as well as agree the indicative level.

Formal interviews for this post will be held on 12/09/2023.
