We are a member-led charity with more than 8,000 members, supported by over 500 volunteers, and employ around 400 full and part-time staff, mainly in our direct service provision across Scotland. We are fully committed to Fair Work First and the support and development of our people.

The role

We are at a highly exciting stage in the reshaping of our services as we build sustainable, resilient, therapeutic, and inclusive registered day care and commissioned community supports of the highest quality that can maximise our resources and potential growth opportunities.

We are seeking applicants with a proven track record in leadership within a health and social care service (or related) background to work in this key senior role and make a positive difference to the lives of people living with dementia, those at greater risk of dementia, and the families and friends who care for someone with dementia.

Based in Inverness or Glasgow, the role will lead and manage local teams in a variety of locations and services. Full details about the role are provided in the job description available through the link provided.

The person

You will have the right level of personal qualities, experience, knowledge and qualifications, demonstrate excellent leadership qualities and high levels of emotional intelligence, with experience of managing people, supporting staff development and promoting a positive culture. You will be an excellent communicator, highly organised with a collaborative approach to working with others to deliver shared objectives and drive continuous improvement in our practice. You will have a high-level knowledge and understanding of dementia and substantial experience in the management and delivery of services and hold a relevant practice qualification to meet the Scottish Social Services Council registered management requirements. Further details are provided in the person specification provided.
