Who we are

Keep Scotland Beautiful is your charity inspiring action for our environment.

Our vision is for a clean, green, sustainable Scotland. We are a practical organisation working with communities, schools, businesses, local and national government, public bodies and individuals to help combat climate change, tackle litter and waste, restore nature and biodiversity and improve the places we care for.

We support the ambitions of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

We offer a fantastic benefits package in return for your talent. These include but are not limited to a generous pension scheme; hybrid working; development opportunities; a 35-hour work week (28 hours for 0.8FTE), along with an annual free volunteer day to take your skills or interests to support others. We operate a hybrid working policy, which allows a balance between home/remote working and coming to our office Hub in Stirling.

What the role is

This is a Part-Time (28 hrs/wk), Fixed Term post to 31 May 2029.

Reporting to the Communities Manager and working alongside the Communities team, the Make Your Mark Skills Development Officer will deliver a programme of accredited skills training focused on built, cultural and natural heritage to people facing complex barriers to employment.

The post-holder will work closely with our partners Make Your Mark and Access to Industry. This post will form part of the wider Make Your Mark programme, supporting people facing barriers to employment through training and pathways into volunteering and employment opportunities, supporting heritage volunteer organisers, and supporting sectoral research, knowledge and practice.

Delivery will focus on providing a structured programme of accredited skills training to raise awareness of the importance of heritage, support participants with the knowledge and tools to celebrate, record and preserve local heritage, and equip them with skills to take on heritage volunteering opportunities.

What you’ll need to have

We are looking for someone with experience in teaching/training/supported learning, particularly for individuals facing barriers to learning. You should have a passion for Scotland’s historic environment and an ability to use that passion to support learning and action for local heritage. Experience of working with a range of partners will be an advantage.

While the post will be based in Stirling, the training delivery location will be in Edinburgh with further locations being sought, therefore ability to travel is essential.

This post is funded by Historic Environment Scotland and The National Lottery Heritage Fund, with thanks to National Lottery players.
