Glasgow, United Kingdom The National Autistic Society Full time

**Who we are looking for;**

The National Autistic Society offers a student support service across Scotland for individuals with autism and Asperger syndrome in higher education, providing support to enable them to achieve their academic potential.

The NAS Student Support service is tailored to the individual needs of students, providing the support they need to help them through college or university. Specialist Mentors provide 1:1 support, advice and guidance to students during regular (usually weekly) sessions.

Most students encounter challenges when entering a new academic and social environment and our Specialist Mentors offer support in various areas including: managing change, disability awareness, emotion management, relationships and boundaries, timetabling and structure, presentation skills and group work, and independent learning skills.

**Where will you be working?**

As a Specialist Mentor you will be responsible for supporting students at higher educational institutions in the area. Ordinarily student support sessions are delivered in person at the student’s university or college, but in some cases we are currently providing support remotely due to Covid-19.

You will be joining the Student Support team, which is well established, highly motivated, and completely committed to the outcomes we facilitate for our students.

**Hours of work**

This is a bank agreement with no fixed hours. You will be paid for your support hours and allocated administrative time as well as any additional hours for training, supervisions, meetings etc.

**How to apply**

Applications for this job are sought from anyone who is suitably qualified and experienced for the role but particularly welcome from those with a diagnosis of autism or Asperger syndrome.

The NAS is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children and adults who use our services and as such expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Successful applicants will be required to complete the relevant safeguarding checks.

We are an equal opportunities employer.
