Why?
Our vision is that every person in Scotland is able to access the support they need to find a high-quality job that pays them well and your drive and commitment to this job will help them get there.
You will understand that each client has individual skills and aspirations and you will work with your team to ensure they are supporting our clients to progress towards their chosen career goal whilst recognising our commitment to our funders in terms of both performance and financial targets.
You will be representing Enable Works in everything you do so you will need a professional, can-do attitude. Our reputation is important to us. As a performance manager, you will have an approachable and flexible style of management with the ability to coach and develop your team to achieve the best for them and our clients.
Our culture is autonomous so that means we trust you to manage your time. You will effectively monitor the performance and best practice of your team, ensuring the delivery of high-quality services that exceed the expectations of our clients and funders. Attention to detail is important as it means you can work accurately and follow instructions.
Having the confidence to get out and engage people in the local community will be key to the success of your programme. You will engage with local referral partners, other organisations who can offer specialist support to our clients as well as employers to support the team to source the best opportunities for our clients and this can mean reaching out and making new connections within your community.
We have high expectations for our clients, and you will be given a work plan with targets. We support you throughout, but you need to be comfortable working towards them and managing your team to do the same.
