Role

This post is funded by St James Quarter under the brand area of FUSE. The core job purpose is to support the manager and other support staff in FUSE with the recruitment of clients into jobs available within the St James Quarter and the wider Business Improvement District (city centre area) when relevant or required. 

FUSE is a world class retail and hospitality offer setting standards for skills, training, recruitment and career support. FUSE has been established to work across Edinburgh and beyond, connecting people to training courses, accredited qualifications, employers and jobs in both retail and hospitality within St James Quarter but also the rest of the city. St James Quarter opened in 2021 bringing approximately 3,000 new jobs to the city.

The successful candidate will have an operational remit, connecting with employers and assisting the FUSE Manager and staff with understanding, promoting and filling vacancies on a rolling basis.   

Through Capital City Partnership, FUSE has access to a wide supply chain of clients who are supported through over 60 organisations and agencies within the Joined Up for Jobs network.  These clients are given support to become job ready or may be job changers who require additional support to move into employment. FUSE brings employers closer to job ready clients for a successful transition into work.  

As part of this wider offer, we also have Joined Up for Business which offers community-based job fairs and a training through JobFit where we work with recruiting employers to design short training courses with a guaranteed interview.  FUSE can link into these offers. 

As this is a location-based service, we anticipate that much of the work will be delivered in person within dedicated offices within the St James Quarter.  Remote/home working is supported when necessary.
