Role

About Us

St Andrew's First Aid has been serving communities across Scotland for over 140 years. Today we're entering an exciting period of transformation, strengthening our volunteer infrastructure, modernising systems, and investing in how we deliver at scale. We’re recruiting across several roles as part of this growth and improvement journey. It’s a genuinely energising time to join us, with real opportunities to shape how we work, enhance service delivery, and contribute to a forward-looking, ambitious organisation.

The Role

We’re looking for two organised, confident and proactive Events Officers to coordinate volunteers, manage client relationships, and ensure events run smoothly and safely. From logistics and equipment planning to volunteer engagement and post-event reviews, you’ll help deliver a professional, high-quality service that keeps people safe.

This is a varied, operational role where you’ll:

  • Liaise with event organisers to plan and deliver first aid provision
  • Coordinate volunteers, equipment, vehicles and communications
  • Support quotes, risk assessments, invoicing and event administration
  • Monitor volunteer engagement and resource events effectively
  • Lead on logistics, consumables and equipment management
  • Conduct post-event reviews to drive continuous improvement

You’ll thrive in this role if you:

  • Have experience organising or supporting large-scale events
  • Build strong relationships with clients and volunteers
  • Are calm under pressure and solutions-focused
  • Understand health & safety in an events environment
  • Are confident using Microsoft Office
