The Charity and The Vision.
Scotty’s Little Soldiers is a UK-based charity dedicated to supporting military children and young people (0 to 25 years) who have experienced the death of a parent who served in the British Armed Forces. Founded in 2010 by Nikki Scott following the death of her husband, Corporal Lee Scott, the charity offers a unique blend of emotional, practical, and educational support to over 700 young people, and we have big ambitions to support over 1,000 children annually by 2030.
We are proud of our vibrant, non-traditional culture, which puts the needs of bereaved children and young people at the heart of everything we do. We embrace innovative approaches, are committed to creating smiles and believe in the power of community, resilience, and connection.
Scotty’s is seeking an experienced bereavement counsellor to join our small but effective team. The role involves supporting children and young people affected by bereavement, which may include death in service, illness, or suicide.
We want every bereaved military child and young person to have:
- Access to the very best emotional health and wellbeing support.
- Outstanding development opportunities.
- The chance to smile again.
We call these our Promises. Our promises align with our three programmes: SMILES, STRIDES and SUPPORT.
· The SMILES Programme provides children with the chance to smile again
· The STRIDES Programme provides children with outstanding development opportunities
· The SUPPORT Programme provides the very best emotional health and wellbeing support to children who are struggling to cope following a bereavement.
Our Bereavement Counsellor will be a valuable member of the SUPPORT Programme, delivering online 1:1 and group support to those who need it most. But all three programmes work closely together (we call this the Families team).
Role Mission:
The Scotty’s Bereavement Counsellor will work with our families who are struggling with their grief to help them understand their feelings, develop coping skills and build their new life.

· Within three months the Counsellor will have developed their knowledge of the range of services that Scotty’s offers to our families so that they can advise and support families in their case load.

· Will be contributing to peer supervision sessions to ensure all SUPPORT team members are able to give the best support to families.
· Regularly meeting with your selected external supervisor.
What are the 9-month goals for this role:
· Will be supporting a caseload as assigned by the Head of SUPPORT, with emerging impact data showing the success of your support.

About us
Jigsaw exists to build rigorous evidence for lasting change in education. We engage in applied research, evaluation, strategy and technical assistance.
Our work focuses on high-impact areas which can strengthen quality education in low- and middle-income countries. This includes specific technical focus on: education technology; education in emergencies and protracted crises; education, climate and environment; and education for girls.
Our values
We focus on the end game - this means you can expect us to focus on things like contextualisation, sustainability and scalability.
We play to our strengths - this means we only say yes to a few things, invest in building our technical expertise, and aim to be exceptional at what we do.
We ask important questions - life is too short to go with the flow, so we challenge ourselves and those we work with to think critically and constructively about big problems.
We treat people with dignity - power dynamics are real, respect is important, and our values are lived out through every interaction we have with each other and our research participants.
We are committed to learning - we do this collaboratively and rigorously, we believe in understanding complex systems, validating our assumptions and applying lean and adaptive principles to all our work.
We prioritise local contexts - and believe that our work is most effective when communities are centrally involved in decision-making.
We listen deeply - everyone has a story and this matters, so we prioritise participatory and child-friendly methods and build strong relationships with local research organisations.
We believe change is possible - but making it happen is complex and takes a long time, so we focus our energy on ensuring our work gets read, listened to, and has a positive impact on decision-making.
Our work
Our work is about building evidence that both strengthens and disrupts the education sector. We focus on areas of the sector which we believe to have the highest potential to improve education for those most in need.
The majority of our current engagements focus on the following four areas: education technology; education in emergencies and protracted crises; education, climate and environment; and education for girls – although these are often overlapping and interconnected with a range of other critical issues. We embrace the complexity of education by wrestling with these intersections. This is where our work has the greatest impact.
On our website you can read more about why we focus on these things, our case studies, and the organisations we work with.
Why this role
There is a crisis in education quality in low-income countries. All of Jigsaw’s work is focused on helping to tackle this through applied research, evaluation, strategy and technical assistance. We exist to build rigorous evidence for education. Our mission is clear and our team is growing.
We want a Researcher to join us. Jigsaw is a place where you can do career-defining work and have a real impact on education. The successful candidates will contribute to the delivery of high-quality research, evaluation, strategy and technical assistance work within Jigsaw’s core sector focus areas.

They will be a valuable member of a passionate and vibrant team that loves to interact with different communities across the world.
We know that people are complex and experience does not always fit into precise lists.
