Careers

Our staff and volunteers are ambassadors for our work. We are committed to developing a skilled and flexible workforce to help deliver our strategic plan. And we work hard to nurture open and constructive working relationships right across our organisation.

At Children First we are motivated by the desire to make the best possible difference to the lives of Scotland’s vulnerable children, young people and their families. This is reflected in our values which guide our day-to-day actions and long term decision making. With love, we put children first, with purpose, we transform children's lives together and with strength, we do whatever it takes to protect Scotland's children. If you share our vision and values and would like to join our team then we would love to hear from you.

If you work with us, we can offer a high quality work environment – we have been an accredited Investors in People (IIP) organisation since 2008. 

You can find out more about the standard on the IIP Scotland website.

Fair Work First is the Scottish Government's approach to driving fair work practices across the labour market in Scotland. Children First are committed to fair and inclusive work practices for all colleagues and volunteers. Read our Fair Work First Statement here.

We take pride in the high quality of services we provide to children, young people and their families. And we are committed to providing development and support that meets everyone’s needs.
