Service Coordinator

Contract Permanent

Do you have a passion for helping vulnerable people enjoy as much fulfilment as they can and feel included in their community? If compassion, care and inclusiveness are an important part of who you are, our opportunities to work away from the routine in a demanding, challenging but emotionally rewarding role could be for you. Our Turning Point Scotland Services in Fife are looking for people like you to help provide individualised support to adults with a wide range of needs, either on an individual 1:1 basis or alongside others and as part of a team.

The support we provide is always person centred, we do this by involving people who know the person well, this includes family and friends, other health and Social Work professionals, Advocacy services and our own staff members.

We believe having the right values of respect, compassion, inclusion and integrity is all you need to join our team! We would offer you full support in completing your application.

As a Service Co-ordinator, you will work with individuals who have a wide range of support needs, providing them with practical and emotional support and encouraging them to achieve their own personal outcomes in all aspects of their daily lives e.g. keeping safe, meaningful activities, community involvement, physical health, relationships, emotional health and wellbeing.

We believe that a home is a human right and that an individual is best placed to deal with the issues that made them homeless in the first place, in a place they can call home.

Fife Support Service delivers Housing First support, working across Fife to enable people to maintain independent tenancy sustainment, reconnect with their local communities and assist them to build their resilience to prevent repeat homelessness.

The service also includes an innovative Whole System Approach jointly funded with Fife Council. Homelessness is a complex and multi‑faceted issue. Ending, preventing, or responding effectively to homelessness demands input from housing but also from across the public service system – no one service, or approach, is going to have all the answers. These inputs need to be coordinated and integrated, underpinned by effective communication and information sharing arrangements and overseen by a strategic structure that brings agencies together around a shared goal.

This is what we mean by a Whole System Approach.

We welcome applications from all candidates who are eligible to work in the United Kingdom. However, we are not able to sponsor visas.
