Social Policy Coordinator

Bureau social policy volunteers use information from the problems brought to the bureau by clients, to help bring about real change.
Bureaux do this to meet the second aim of the CAB Service in Scotland: to influence social policy, both locally and nationally.
This is a flexible role, which can sometimes be partly carried out away from the bureau and outside our opening hours.
Main Duties
• Providing support and guidance to Advisers and staff members on social policy issues at local and national level
• Keeping up-to-date with social policy issues
• Maintain the profile of social policy within the bureau
• Actioning social policy flags raised by Advisers on CASTLE and providing feedback as appropriate
• Collating social policy information
• Contribute to effective social policy work within the bureau including identifying trends and providing information to bureau management and Citizens Advice Scotland as required
