Role

What does ‘emotional health and wellbeing’ mean to you? What do you think it could mean for young people?

About the service 

Cyrenians’ Scottish Centre for Conflict Resolution (SCCR) is a National Resource Centre for best practice in conflict resolution, mediation and early intervention work with a particular focus on young people and families. Our award-winning digital resources, free training and events improve understanding of conflict and emotional needs, to transform relationships and lives.

About the role

The Emotional Health and Wellbeing Lead will ensure that the SCCR continues to evolve and extend its reach. Your main responsibilities will be to:

  • Engage with young people to review and develop our services, ensuring their voices are heard
  • Deliver workshops and presentations, and contribute to our range of digital resources
  • Maintain and develop working relationships with schools and other youth organisations 
  • Monitor and report on the progress of our work

About you

We are seeking a committed and self-motivated individual with experience in conflict resolution, research, psychology and creative practices. You should be able to demonstrate the ability to work under your own initiative, while also working in a team environment. You should also have:

  • Experience of engaging with children and young people
  • Excellent IT and communication skills, including developing inclusive training material
  • Able to demonstrate our values of compassion, respect, integrity, and innovation in the work that you do.

How we will support you

You’ll be part of a small team, led by a supportive manager. There will be opportunities for you to learn and develop, while sharing your skills and experiences. You will have access to wider Cyrenians support, including our learning and development programme, and staff wellbeing services.

About us

At Cyrenians we tackle the causes and consequences of homelessness by taking a Public Health Approach to Homelessness Prevention. We take a values-led and relationships-based approach to delivering all our services.
