These benefits are available to people on low incomes responsible for children under 16, for people who need help paying for a funeral, disabled people, carers, young people entering the workplace and to help people heat their homes.

We are committed to recruiting a diverse workforce that is representative of the people of Scotland, and which treats those clients
- as well as each other - with dignity, fairness and respect.

Members of our Executive Advisory Body make a critical contribution to our governance through their mix of lived and professional experience. We are therefore looking for people who believe in and can demonstrate our values to join the Executive Advisory Body of Social Security Scotland and make a real difference to the people we support.
