The Role
Values into Action Scotland (VIAS) is recruiting for the post of Sessional Job Coach based at our head office at the University of Aberdeen and surrounding area.
We are looking to recruit a pool of Job Coaches to support our Project SEARCH and Triple E clients to develop their job skills in a real working environment.
You will work with the Senior Lead Consultants and their teams to provide practical job coaching support in what, for many, is their first real job. No experience is necessary as full training will be given.
Background
Values Into Action Scotland provides quality supports and services to create a world that is inclusive for all. Come and help us achieve our vision for a Scotland where people with learning disabilities and/ or neurodivergent people have the same opportunities as everyone else to achieve their goals.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Triple E is a wraparound supported employment service designed to help disabled people aged 16–67 find high-quality jobs. This post will support our services in Aberdeenshire.

The Candidate
With a strong interest in learning about supported employment, the successful candidate will be confident in their ability to support our clients to develop.
They will also be comfortable working one-to-one within a business setting.
Candidates would benefit from an understanding of the issues that affect people with learning disabilities and/or neurodivergent people.
