Development Consultant (Scottish College SAs)

NUS Charity is an exciting organisation developing and championing strong students’ unions. We connect our members and curate services to deliver advice, guidance and crisis support to students’ unions.

We do professional differently. We are a progressive charity representing students’ unions across the UK. The sector is inclusive, fun, dynamic and representative and we put students and students’ unions at the heart of everything we do. We are challenging but are committed to creating a supportive and flexible environment which pushes your personal development in your everyday activity.

What we do

Students’ unions can be transformational hubs for students, staff, and wider society. NUS Charity support our members’ development to enhance their capacity and harness opportunities to maximise their positive impact. We do this in many ways; from managing a purchasing consortium to drive great value for our members, to our development activity, supporting the best potential in students’ unions - we strive to make a difference to our members.

Within our small Union Development team we deal with a range of organisational development work, whether that’s being the Returning Officer and supporting students’ unions elections, running development events/webinars, helping new students’ unions create the structures that they need, coaching a students’ union leader who needs extra support, or creating guidance on new legislation that will effect students’ unions – no two days are the same.

What we need

NUS Charity is looking for a Development Consultant to deliver strategic and operational support in college students’ associations in Scotland. We’re looking to deliver high quality projects in organisational development, based on the Framework for the Development of Strong and Effective College Students’ Associations in Scotland, with a specific focus on supporting them to be autonomous, sustainable and effective in representing the interests of students. This role is part of an externally funded project, with funding provided by the Scottish Funding Council.

We welcome applications from homebased applicants outside the Edinburgh area, however there would be an expectation for you to visit the Edinburgh office once a week and students’ unions in Scotland frequently. For a successful candidate based outside the Edinburgh area, travel expenses and any travel time within work time for student union visits would be calculated based on an Edinburgh location.

Due to the role being externally funded, it is currently fixed term until the end of July 2022. However, should further, additional funding be secured, there is potential for the role's term to be extended. We would also be open to considering the role as a secondment opportunity.

We’re committed to equality of opportunity for all. We welcome applications from individuals regardless of their race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, age, gender, or disability.

You can be yourself here whoever you are, be proud of the work you do and build a career in a place that knows different is good.

Benefits

We aim to practice what we preach so we’re happy to offer a flexible person-centred working environment with a great benefits package including:

• Generous holiday entitlement
• Flexible working opportunities
• Valuable workplace pension
• Enhanced parental pay policies
• Employee assistance programme

About us
Crisis is the national charity for homeless people. We know that homelessness is not inevitable. We know that together we can end it.

We have an exciting opportunity to make a difference to those at risk of becoming homeless in Scotland. A new post, based in the Best Practice Team, will show how all public bodies can play their part in preventing homelessness.

About the role
Scotland has made huge strides in tackling homelessness, but more needs to happen and we know the best way of ending homelessness is by preventing it from happening in the first place. Crisis are pleased to support the change planned by Scottish Government through proposals for a new Homelessness Prevention duty outlined in the Programme for Government 21/22. As a Senior Best Practice Officer based in Scotland, with a focus on Prevention you will work to identify good prevention practice already happening across sectors, look to see where it isn’t happening and why, and show how services can be designed to ensure that opportunities to intervene early are taken by wider public bodies for those approaching their services.  You’ll work closely with Crisis’ Scottish Policy and Campaigns team as they work to see the Prevention duty embedded in legislation.  
This is a 2 year fixed term contract.
 

About you
To be successful in this role you will have great networking skills, and be good at making relationships across different sectors. You’ll understand how local authorities and wider public bodies work and be able to build connections and rapport with individuals working there.  You’ll have an understanding of the Scottish homelessness system and the current legal framework that underpins it. You’ll know how services can be designed to make sure that those who need help can get it and how to listen to the voices of those who use it.

You’ll be passionate about change and seeing homelessness ended in Scotland with a drive and energy to shape the role to do this.   

We want Crisis to be an inclusive employer which then reflects our members and the communities we work in. We want to offer opportunities to everyone regardless of their gender, ethnicity, disability, religion, sexual orientation or age. We particularly welcome applications from people with lived experience of homelessness.

Working at Crisis
As a member of the team you will have access to a wide range of employee benefits including:

- Interest free loans to purchase a train season ticket or a bike or for a deposit to secure a tenancy
- Mandatory pension scheme, with an employer contribution of 8.5%
- 25 days’ annual leave which increases with service to 28 days

Alongside our excellent staff benefits, we will support your ongoing development to build your skills, experience and career.

When you join us you will have the opportunity to join our staff diversity networks, which aim to champion issues across the organisation, enable staff to be their authentic and best selves and contribute to making Crisis a truly diverse organisation.

We have 5 staff diversity networks which include Black, Asian and Ethnic people, LGBTQ+ people, those with Lived Experience of Homelessness, Women at Crisis and Disability Awareness.
