"I enjoy making an impact on the lives of others. It
is great seeing the progress the people I support are making. Being

2018.
JOIN OUR TEAM
At Capability Scotland we understand our greatest asset is
our people. Join us in our mission to support
disabled people to live happy and
fulfilled lives.
We provide support to disabled people across Scotland and our
vacancies can be found here. Most of our services employ a
variety of staff so we have vacancies to fit a range of
skill sets.
The customer truly is at the heart of what we
do so it is no surprise the majority of our workforce are
care staff. When we are recruiting for frontline care staff,
previous experience is desirable, but what is really
important is that you share our values. If you see a role
you are interested in but you do not feel you have the relevant
experience you should apply, explaining what
your values are and why you would be great
in the role, or call the service for an informal
discussion in the first instance.
DEVELOPMENT AND SUPPORT
Industry leading in our training, we will
support and develop you through on the job
training, expert-led sessions and
e-learning. We will also support and fund
you to do your SVQ. This year we supported over 30
new staff members with an SVQ qualification.
FAIR WORK FRAMEWORK
In order to demonstrate our commitment to delivering the
best working environment for our staff, Capability
Scotland has signed up to the Fair Work Framework.
The Fair Work Framework defines fair work through the five
dimensions of Effective Voice,
Opportunity, Security,
Fulfilment, and Respect. We
recognise that, as well as being the right thing to
do, fair work can deliver significant
benefits, particularly in relation to
motivation, innovation,
productivity and health and
wellbeing.
Dana O'Dwyer, Chief Executive, said:
"Our staff consistently deliver exceptional support to those
who need it most and it is our responsibility to ensure we do the
same for them. The Fair Work Framework aspires to create a
world-leading working life for the people of Scotland and
Capability Scotland's staff deserve nothing less".
