Hours: 37.5 per week, Monday to Friday 9am–5pm, plus weekend working on a rota (1 in 5 or 6).
Are you passionate about helping people live better lives? Would you like to work for a charity where your wellbeing matters just as much as the people you support? Join a trauma-informed team where you’ll be encouraged to develop creative, flexible approaches.
You don’t need previous experience or qualifications. If you share our values, this could be the role for you.
At LinkLiving, our values guide everything we do:
Empathy – Listening to and understanding individual needs
Respect – Treating people as they wish to be treated
Integrity – Acting with honesty and strong moral principles
Caring – Showing kindness and concern
LinkLiving is a Scottish health and wellbeing charity supporting people to manage or overcome the effects of trauma, mental health challenges, poverty and inequality. We deliver a range of services including personal development and employability programmes, self-help coaching, supported accommodation, care at home, housing support, befriending and social cafés.

The Fife Support Service provides individually tailored visiting support to people with complex needs across Fife. This is a long-term service funded through social work spot contracts.
The Role
You will work in a person-centred, trauma-informed way, building positive relationships and supporting individuals through difficult times. You’ll provide emotional, practical and social support to help people live as independently as possible and make informed choices.
