SU Scotland is a national charity, with around 100 staff and over 2,000 volunteers. Our vision is to see the children and young people of Scotland exploring the Bible and responding to the significance of Jesus. In addition to our work in schools, with churches and in SU holidays, we run two residential activity centres, Lendrick Muir (near Kinross) and Alltnacriche (near Aviemore) and are about to launch a third Gowanbank in Ayrshire.
Lendrick Muir is our largest facility, a stunning mansion house set in 120 acres of land, offering accommodation for groups of up 160 and a unique mix of activities to experience. Primarily focussed on hosting children and young people, the centre welcomes groups of all sizes from schools, churches, youth organisations and other agencies, as well as hosting SU Holidays and the Soul Survivor Scotland festival.
Building on outstanding growth in recent years, this role offers a rewarding opportunity to bring leadership to the centre, supporting a talented team of over 30 staff and volunteers who help make the ministry happen, and see it grow to the next level.

Candidates should be mature Christians able to support the spiritual leadership of a large team of staff and volunteers. Candidates should also possess sound business and communication skills. You will be an excellent team player, motivated self-starter and work well under pressure.

Here at Cameron House in Inverness we provide the highest levels of care for older people. Our goal is to ensure that every one of our residents enjoys the best possible quality of life. Of course, making sure that they also enjoy tasty and nutritious food is right at the heart of that, which is why this rewarding role is so important.
Don’t think for a moment that you’ll spend all of your time shut away in the kitchen though. You’ll talk to our residents, to find out what they like and to make sure they’re happy with their meals, as well as to relatives and the rest of the team here.
That’s why we used the word ‘rewarding’ earlier. Just hearing someone say “I really liked that soup” with a big smile on their face can make a huge difference to your day.
As well as cooking everything from scratch, you’ll order and check deliveries, update menus and generally keep paperwork up-to-date. So you will need to be well organised and able to manage your own time. We’re looking for previous catering experience and also a for a City and Guilds qualification, or equivalent, (Grade 1) or an Elementary Food Handling Certificate (Grade 2).
In return, there’s an excellent benefits package that includes an employer contributory pension and generous holiday allowance.

- Dunfermline/Rosyth based
- Closing 29th October 2018
In 2015 Cyrenians embarked on a series of food conversations with various stakeholders. We found the resounding message wasn’t just to have food but also to share food with others and so ‘Something to Eat, Someone To Eat With’ was developed.
In response to this, Cyrenians developed and launched Community Cook Clubs to reach out to the isolated and lonely as well as those living with food poverty. The clubs encourage people to learn cooking skills, provide healthy meals, facilitate valuable support services, all whilst generating community spirit.
Over the past couple of years, clubs have been established and we are now in a position to expand the project further. We are looking to recruit an additional coordinator to develop this project on it continuing journey to support people and families.
You will have experience of recruiting, training, coordinating and supporting volunteers along with the required cooking skills and qualifications.
You will also possess excellent communication skills, have a creative approach to problem solving and be a team player. Being passionate about food and the social impact it can have building community is essential, as is the ability to demonstrate Cyrenians values of compassion, respect, integrity and innovation in the work that you do.
