Role

The Childcare Connector will contribute to the organisation’s vision of a Scotland in which single parents and their children are valued and treated equally and fairly, by supporting the delivery of our partnership work in the Carlton Ward area. Embedded within DWP Jobcentre settings and other local services the Childcare Connector will support families who are experiencing childcare as a barrier to employment, learning, or progression. 

The role will focus on supporting families to understand, navigate, and access childcare funding and support including funded hours, Universal Credit entitlements, and local discretionary schemes. The project aims to promote sustainable employment for parents and carers by addressing childcare as a critical enabler.

All roles at OPFS contribute to our mission of working with and for single parent families, providing support that enables them to achieve their potential and help create lasting solutions to the poverty and barriers facing many single parents and their children. Our core values of Justice, Equity, Trust, Collaboration and Compassion are at the heart of everything we do and underpin all aspects of our work.
