Role

AROS (the Anti-Racism Observatory for Scotland) is a bold, community-rooted initiative dedicated to challenging systemic racism in government and the public sector and holding power to account. Community outreach and participation play a vital role in AROS’s work with communities adversely impacted by racism.

The postholder will identify, reach out to, and build relationships with adversely racialised communities, grassroots groups and organisations across Scotland. The role will also entail designing, planning and delivering programmes of community engagement activities, using co-production and other community development approaches. The postholder will assist with the recruitment of lived experience panel members and provide ongoing administrative support, including organising panel meetings, preparing materials and facilitating participation. 

This role will involve travel across Scotland and entails out-of-hours working.

Hosted by the University of Strathclyde in partnership with the Coalition for Racial Equality and Rights (CRER) and funded by the Scottish Government, AROS is in a critical transition period, working towards full independence in December 2027.
