We can offer you...

The opportunity to work in one of Scotland’s leading social care and support charities in which we strive to help people to achieve their individual hopes and dreams every day. We look for people with a flexible and inspirational approach, able to find innovative solutions with people, not for them. We will ensure you come to work every day informed, inspired and determined to make a difference by having a positive impact on people’s lives.

We will support you...

By placing you in a welcoming team under the leadership of a knowledgeable manager. We’ll provide a full induction, regular supervision and team meetings to ensure you maximise your potential.

We’ll develop your career by helping you register as a professional social care practitioner with the Scottish Social Services Council. We’ll pay for and support you to complete your vocational SVQ training, which is required of all social care professionals, and we passionately believe in supporting your continual professional development. 

This is more than a job; this is your career.

We will reward you...

As a Scottish Living Wage employer, we believe in rewarding commitment and wisdom, so your remuneration is enhanced with length of service and relevant qualifications. We offer enhanced maternity, paternity and adoption leave; full salary for travel time and all travel expenses reimbursed; a pension scheme with incremental employer contributions; an Employee Assistance Programme; and a comprehensive set of perks and benefits delivered via Lifeworks.

We will involve you...

In shaping the future of the organisation. Carr Gomm Futures is for all of us at Carr Gomm to actively look at what we do and ask how we could do it better - how could we be the best. It systematically provides opportunities for staff to contribute ideas to improve and shape the direction of the organisation; be it developments in day-to-day working practices, fundraising engagement ideas, or organisational processes and systems. By joining our team, you can help shape the future of social care delivery in Scotland. 

Working with Carr Gomm is inspiring, exciting, welcoming and well rewarded.
