SUMMARY:Aberdeen Kiltwalk 2026
DESCRIPTION:Communities that Care Development Officer Fixed term until 1 July 2027  £25\,354 – £30\,184 per annum (all new appointments will be made at the bottom of the scale). 35 hours per week – some evening / weekend work  Who Cares? Scotland is Scotland’s only national independent membership organisation for Care Experienced people. Our strategic vision is to secure a lifetime of equality\, respect\, and love for Care Experienced people in Scotland.  At the heart of Who Cares? Scotland’s work are the rights of Care Experienced people\, and the power of their voices to bring about positive change. We provide individual lifelong relationship-based independent advocacy and a broad range of imaginative participatory and engagement opportunities for Care Experienced people across Scotland.  We work alongside Corporate Parents and communities to broaden understanding and create change.  We work with policy makers\, leaders\, and elected representatives locally and nationally to shape law\, policy\, and practice\, working together to build on the aspirations of The Promise and secure positive change.  The post is primarily focused on the development\, delivery\, and evaluation of our Communities that Care work within schools primarily in Edinburgh but will feed into our national work too. Providing training and support to schools and other organisations across Scotland and leading on the evaluation and reporting will be key to this role. The post holder will work with the Coordinator and existing Development Officer to deliver and report on an already-established programme of training and support for all schools in Edinburgh. The post holder will be responsible for liaising with all primary and secondary schools and key senior leaders within the local authority; providing ongoing training and support; gathering evaluation data via ongoing consultation and focus groups with teachers and pupils; and reporting on the impact of this work on the school community/wider local authority. Whilst the post holder will have a principal focus on Edinburgh schools\, they will also support the delivery of the Communities that Care model to schools and local authorities across the country. Participation is also a key part of this role\, with the post holder leading on the development\, delivery\, monitoring and evaluation of local participation groups and supporting local Care Experienced people to engage with our wider membership offer. The successful candidate will be joining Who Cares? Scotland at an exciting time\, when the voices of those who are in or have experienced care are growing in power\, individually and collectively – bringing with them insight\, challenge\, hope and change. While we would welcome the knowledge gathered through relevant qualifications\, we are just as interested in relevant work experience.  We welcome and encourage applications from those with experience of care.  If this sounds like the role for you\, we would love to hear from you. For an informal conversation about this opportunity please contact Ray MacLean at rmclean@whocaresscotland.org.  Closing date for applications is Sunday 17 May 2026.

Scotland is Scotland’s only national independent membership organisation for Care Experienced people. Our strategic vision is to secure a lifetime of equality\, respect\, and love for Care Experienced people in Scotland.  At the heart of Who Cares? Scotland’s work are the rights of Care Experienced people\, and the power of their voices to bring about positive change. We provide individual lifelong relationship-based independent advocacy and a broad range of imaginative participatory and engagement opportunities for Care Experienced people across Scotland.  We work alongside Corporate Parents and communities to broaden understanding and create change.  We work with policy makers\, leaders\, and elected representatives locally and nationally to shape law\, policy\, and practice\, working together to build on the aspirations of The Promise and secure positive change.  The post is primarily focused on the development\, delivery\, and evaluation of our Communities that Care work within schools primarily in Edinburgh but will feed into our national work too. Providing training and support to schools and other organisations across Scotland and leading on the evaluation and reporting will be key to this role. The post holder will work with the Coordinator and existing Development Officer to deliver and report on an already-established programme of training and support for all schools in Edinburgh. The post holder will be responsible for liaising with all primary and secondary schools and key senior leaders within the local authority; providing ongoing training and support; gathering evaluation data via ongoing consultation and focus groups with teachers and pupils; and reporting on the impact of this work on the school community/wider local authority. Whilst the post holder will have a principal focus on Edinburgh schools\, they will also support the delivery of the Communities that Care model to schools and local authorities across the country. Participation is also a key part of this role\, with the post holder leading on the development\, delivery\, monitoring and evaluation of local participation groups and supporting local Care Experienced people to engage with our wider membership offer. The successful candidate will be joining Who Cares? Scotland at an exciting time\, when the voices of those who are in or have experienced care are growing in power\, individually and collectively – bringing with them insight\, challenge\, hope and change. While we would welcome the knowledge gathered through relevant qualifications\, we are just as interested in relevant work experience.  We welcome and encourage applications from those with experience of care.  If this sounds like the role for you\, we would love to hear from you.

The post holder will be responsible for liaising with all primary and secondary schools and key senior leaders within the local authority; providing ongoing training and support; gathering evaluation data via ongoing consultation and focus groups with teachers and pupils; and reporting on the impact of this work on the school community/wider local authority.

Participation is also a key part of this role\, with the post holder leading on the development\, delivery\, monitoring and evaluation of local participation groups and supporting local Care Experienced people to engage with our wider membership offer. The successful candidate will be joining Who Cares? Scotland at an exciting time\, when the voices of those who are in or have experienced care are growing in power\, individually and collectively – bringing with them insight\, challenge\, hope and change. While we would welcome the knowledge gathered through relevant qualifications\, we are just as interested in relevant work experience.  We welcome and encourage applications from those with experience of care.  If this sounds like the role for you\, we would love to hear from you.
