About Aberlour’s Family Advice and Community Connection Service

We are providing early support and advice to families who may feel they have become a bit stuck or who are looking for some information, advice, signposting or referrals to other services.

All families with children under the age of 18, living in Perth and Kinross, can contact us directly to access our service. Working alongside families we offer personalised support on family matters, when they need it most, in locations to suit them. As part of this team you would provide a service and lifeline for these families.

What we are looking for....

We are looking for experienced, adaptable individuals to join our relief pool, who can bring fresh, innovative and flexible approaches to family support. You must be flexible in order to deliver support at times that meet the families and communities needs which may include out of hours (early mornings, evenings and weekends).

You will work alongside statutory and other agencies to achieve positive outcomes for children, young people, and their families.

You will have strong communication, teamwork, planning and decision making skills, along with a compassionate nature to understand the necessity of best practice and thrive on helping children and families overcome the challenges presented by everyday modern life. We are particularly interested in hearing from individuals who have an interest in working within their local community and surrounding areas, to support families and enhance our services reach and connection to those more rural communities.

At Aberlour, we want to make sure every child, young person and family has the support and opportunity they need to thrive and reach their potential. If you share the same vision, we want you to join our team.

What we are offering

This is an exciting role, which offers the chance to help shape our Family Advice and Community Connection service, which makes a difference to the lives of children and families in Perth and Kinross.

As well as a supportive team and excellent training opportunities, we want all our employees to feel valued and rewarded for the vital work they do. Find out more about our Employee Benefits and our commitment to Equality and Diversity on our website.

Aberlour is committed to the safeguarding and welfare of all our service users and uses a thorough and rigorous recruitment and selection process including PVG Scheme checks, to ensure this commitment is not compromised.
