    News/Events Category: Job Vacancies


    Post: Local Area Co-ordinator
    Hours: 35 hours per week
    Salary: £26,000 per annum

     

    Fife Forum, owing to the retirement of an existing team member, is recruiting for a Local Area Co-ordinator working primarily with older people 65+.

    The Role

    You will be joining a small Fife-wide team, with a big reach, to assist individuals to identify and potentially access the right level of support and provision which aims to meet their own circumstances and aspirations. To help facilitate this you will work with individuals and, where appropriate, their networks, stakeholders and wider communities to help grow resilience and capacity which encourages opportunity and might reduce/delay the need for statutory interventions.

    About You

    Fife Forum are looking for someone who:

    • Can evidence experience of providing one-to-one support using a Good Conversation and/or person-centred approach which offers people relevant information, signposting and assistance
    • Is able to self-motivate and work with a degree of autonomy to manage their workload safely and efficiently within a prescribed framework
    • Is passionate about working to promote inclusion and engagement
    • Can effectively record and report on work activity which includes the use of IT software and systems
    • Possesses the creativity, energy and commitment required to work with a broad spectrum of people, some of whom might be vulnerable and/or experiencing challenging circumstances

    How to Apply

    If you feel you are up to this challenge, Fife Forum want to hear from you.

    An application pack can be downloaded from their website (see Current Vacancies). CVs will not be considered.

    The closing date for applications is 3.30pm on Friday 21 March 2025, with interviews scheduled Thursday 27 March 2025.
