The Vacancy
Lead a National Service That Changes Lives Every Day.
This is a rare opportunity to take on a newly created national role at the heart of our client’s mission. Every week in Scotland, three children die from a life shortening condition. Our client is there for them, and for their families, providing unwavering, compassionate, specialist care.
Their Family Support teams include Senior Social Workers, Child and Family Workers, Play Specialists and other experts, working hand in hand with clinical colleagues across their two hospices, in hospitals, and in homes and communities across Scotland.
They are looking for an exceptional Head of Family Support to shape and lead the full breadth of these services – from child and family support and therapeutic activities to bereavement, spiritual care and financial wellbeing. Your leadership will ensure families receive holistic, responsive and trauma informed support wherever and whenever they need it.
