So, we are striving for change, with individuals, in communities, across society, and leading the way to a safe home. We need ambitious, best-in-class individuals who are passionate about our cause to join us at this exciting time. This is your chance to play a part in the fundamental change we are striving to achieve. At Shelter Scotland we are united by our purpose to defend the right to a safe home.

A flair for planning, writing and project-managing new large-scale, multi-year applications is important too. And, when it comes to liaising with colleagues across our High Value Partnerships team in order to maximise income opportunities, again, we'll rely on you.
