Role
About Partick Thistle Charitable Trust
Partick Thistle Charitable Trust (PTCT) is the official charitable arm of Partick Thistle FC.
We use the power of football and sport to improve lives across Glasgow, delivering programmes that support health and wellbeing, education, inclusion and community cohesion. Our work engages children, young people, adults and older people from diverse backgrounds, with a strong focus on those facing disadvantage.
Role Purpose
The Community Engagement Manager will lead the delivery of our Stand Up, Speak Out project and oversee the development, coordination and delivery of community engagement activity across Firhill, Springburn and the wider north of Glasgow.
The core purpose of the role is to provide support, safe spaces and meaningful opportunities for young people predominantly aged 14–21 within the communities we serve. These young people are from disadvantaged backgrounds, may be facing exclusion, or may be at risk of offending. You will develop, plan and lead sessions within Firhill Stadium, Petershill Park and other community safe spaces, ensuring that young people’s voices shape our work and that they feel valued, included and empowered. This role is funded through the CashBack for Communities scheme.
A key element of the post will be the creation, development and ongoing support of a Youth Panel, enabling local young people to influence PTCT programmes, co-design activities and act as ambassadors for their peers and communities.
The role will also build strong relationships with local residents, community groups, schools, partners and stakeholders; ensure that PTCT programmes are responsive to local needs; and help grow participation, impact and the visibility of the Trust’s work.
