    Created: 13/01/2025
    News/Events Category: Job Vacancies


    Post: Group Coordinator (East Fife) 
    Contract: Permanent 
    Hours: 18 hours per week
    Salary: £21,840 per annum pro rata 
    Location: Kirkcaldy 


    Express Group Fife is an established mental health charity with a network of social groups throughout Fife. The aim of the groups is to promote positive mental wellbeing by providing a safe place for sharing experiences and peer support. This aim is as relevant today as it was in 1977, when Express Group Fife started to operate, and the number of people living in the community with mental health problems is as large as ever.

    Express Group Fife is looking to recruit a Group Coordinator to cover groups in St Andrews, Methil, Tayport, and Cupar. Many people in East Fife face mental health challenges. Express groups strive to be a place of community and support, bringing people together, reducing isolation and loneliness, and improving general wellbeing. The groups offer a wide variety of activities such as board games, puzzles, bingo, and arts and crafts amongst others. They are looking for someone who is caring, proactive and organised to host these groups in East Fife. If this sounds like you, they would love to hear from you!

    There are four elements to the service:

    • To run weekly groups with support from the caseworker and manager
    • To be proactive in running the groups - to make sure the groups are interesting and relevant to those who attend
    • To provide emotional and practical support to group attendees
    • To arrange and serve a basic healthy lunch

    The post is for 18 hours per week. Most of that time is to be used for the group facilitation between 9am and 1pm, on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. The rest of the time is to be used for outside the group duties e.g. shopping, admin.
