Project Manager - Arden Project

Project Manager – Arden – South of Glasgow

The Mungo Foundation is a well-established, charitable organisation, employing over 700 staff and providing support to a diverse range of services. We are committed to providing personalised services and improving the lives of the people we support. We value our staff greatly and provide competitive terms and conditions and access to the organisation’s training and development programmes.

Our Arden Project is situated over two sites in the south of Glasgow; Arden and Govanhill. The service provides housing support to people with mental ill health and aims to enable people to live independently in their local community. Though staff are present 24 hours per day, support is based on individually assessed hours tailored to the needs, wants, wishes and lifestyle choices of the people who use the service.

We are seeking to recruit a Project Manager who can manage and lead our mental health services, ensuring dynamic and effective leadership of the team to deliver exceptional care and support to individuals to achieve personal outcomes.

You must have excellent communication and written skills as well as a high level of interpersonal skills with the ability to engage at all levels. You will be able to manage your own workload and lead the staff team to ensure the service delivers a high-quality, person-centered service to all individuals that we support. You will be responsible for managing all aspects of the service including financial, HR and contractual matters.

Experience of managing a Mental Health or related service is essential along with an in-depth knowledge of this field. If you have a proven track record in leading a team and supporting individuals to achieve positive change and individual outcomes this may be the right opportunity for you. A relevant professional qualification i.e. SVQ IV and Registered Managers Award or RGN is preferred.

The successful candidate will be required to work a flexible shift pattern to meet the needs to the service and will be required to participate in an off duty on-call system.

If you are looking for a new and rewarding challenge, this may be the ideal opportunity for you.

We value our staff very highly. Alongside competitive terms and conditions we also offer membership of an employee benefits scheme, a credit union, and a workplace pension, plus numerous training and development opportunities, including SVQ registration level qualifications.
