This roles involves managing circa 10 people in each office location. There are two roles available the first being based in Galashiels and the second being based between Ayr and Kilmarnock. You will control teams of dedicated people who provide support to individuals who are seeking employment, with the fundamental aim of helping them back into employment. You will need to challenge and inspire your team and take responsibility for hitting demanding, but achievable performance targets.

About our client
The company supports long-term unemployed people to find lasting work.

You will be rewarded with an excellent salary and the benefits you would expect from a Sunday Times Top 100 company. More importantly, you will be rewarded by knowing that your work will dramatically improve the lives of your clients and those around them.
