Job Description
Job Title: Neuroinclusion Consultant (Autism‑Focused Support & Employment)
Location: Between Erskine and Bishopton
Hours: Part‑time, typically 20 hours per week (4 hours on site daily)
Contract: Permanent
About Us
We’re a small, passionate team dedicated to supporting neurodivergent adults into meaningful employment and helping them flourish once they’re there. Our approach blends practical workplace coaching, gentle advocacy, and a deep respect for individual difference. We believe that neuroinclusion isn’t a policy—it’s a practice and an advantage that we live every day.
About the Role
This is a hands‑on, people‑centred role supporting autistic and otherwise neurodivergent adults in the workplace. You’ll spend each day on site with our trainees, helping them navigate real working environments, build confidence, and develop the skills needed for long‑term employment success.
It’s part business management, part mentor and advocate, part problem‑solver — and every bit human.
Your typical day might include:
* Supporting a trainee to understand workplace expectations and routines
* Liaising with employers to ensure trainees are meeting the requirements of the role
* Providing 1:1 coaching and reflective sessions
* Observing interactions and helping to translate unspoken workplace norms
* Reporting progress to the wider team and contributing to support plans
* Providing training support to technical staff and trainers to understand the needs and working methods of the autistic employees
About You
You’ll have both professional and personal understanding of neurodivergence—especially autism in adulthood. You know how important it is to be patient, curious, and kind, but you also bring and understanding of business needs with professional boundaries, initiative, and a problem‑solving mindset.
Additional Information
We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and identities. Lived experience of neurodivergence is warmly encouraged.
On‑site Working Requirement
This role requires on‑site working; please ensure you can commute reliably before applying.
Requirements
* Relevant qualification in psychology, social work (SEN/disability), counselling, coaching, employment services, or community/life skills support (not personal care or childcare)
* Demonstrated understanding of autism and adult neurodivergence, through work or lived experience
* Experience supporting adults to develop independence, skills, or confidence in workplace or community settings
* Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to coach and advocate effectively
* Reliable transport and willingness to work on site daily (4–5 hours)
* Experience mentoring, training, or coaching autistic adults
* Knowledge of workplace adjustments and inclusive employment practice
* Familiarity with strengths‑based and trauma‑informed approaches
What We Offer
* A role that genuinely makes a difference — every day
* A small, values‑driven team that will support you as much as you support others
* Ongoing training and reflective supervision
* A collaborative, flexible environment where your input matters
