Apex Scotland is the leading employment and training organisation specialising in work with people with convictions.

We believe in a future beyond your past.

Apex Scotland offer a diverse range of services for young people and adults to help them break down barriers to employment, engage in education, or integrate into their communities.

We are looking for a full time Practitioner to join our team in our National Upside Service at 35 hours per week, covering the Tayside area.

The post will present an opportunity to cover our service we deliver in partnership with Access to industry, Action for Children, Barnardo’s, Circle, Families Outside, Sacro and Turning Point Scotland. Upside is a national throughcare service, available in all parts of Scotland. Throughcare provides people in short-term custody or remand with the practical and emotional support they need to transition to community life. The Service will achieve this by working in partnership with the Scottish Prison Service, Community Justice Social Work and other agencies across Scotland to ensure our approach of focusing on meeting people where they are, addressing immediate challenges, and helping them build sustainable futures within their communities are met.

The successful applicant will have experience of working in a community environment and an understanding of Throughcare support would be an advantage. There will be some travel throughout the country therefore a driving license or access to a means of transport is essential.

The right candidate will have an aptitude for working collaboratively with participants, prison workers, SPS, social work and other partners. Offer a tailored and responsive engagement experience to our participants in a person-centred way. The candidate must be able to complete dynamic and robust risk assessments and follow safeguarding practices. An understanding of Prison Throughcare would be an advantage, as would knowledge and experience in working with databases. You would need to demonstrate flexibility and the ability to work in partnership. Some travel may be required therefore a driving licence and/or access to a means of transport would be an advantage. A full description will be available.

This post is funded until end of March 2028 and may require some evening or weekend working.

Membership of the Prevention of Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme is required.

We offer some great benefits, including family friendly policies, flexible and hybrid working and work-life balance. We also have generous annual leave entitlement, employee wellbeing scheme (Perkbox), pension scheme and death in service, company sick pay.

We welcome applications from individuals who share Apex Scotland’s aims and values and value diversity from all sections of the community.
