By Your Side Ethnic Minority Community Adviser

 94% of our colleagues rate Age Scotland as a great place to work. 

Age Scotland is the Scottish charity for older people. We work to improve the lives of everyone over the age of 50.

We support and enable hundreds of communities and older people’s groups across Scotland. We provide information, friendship and advice through our free helpline and publications. We tackle loneliness and isolation with our Friendship Line and much more. 

We work in Scotland with older people’s groups who provide vital activities and services for older people in their local community. We campaign on the issues that older people tell us are important to them. 

Living our values, you will help create better outcomes for older people by empowering, enabling and supporting them to access their rights and entitlements. Through the provision of advice, form filling and low-level advocacy you will support older people who cannot take the next steps themselves due to the barriers they experience in day-to-day life.

• Generous holiday allowance of 39 days (FTE)

• Company sick pay 

• Healthcare benefit 

• Discounted gym membership 

• Cashback scheme from major retailers
