Energy/Drive

We have an entrepreneurial spirit at Scotty’s. We are determined to improve the lives of the children and young people we support and move quickly to make this happen. We’re looking for people who share this mindset. We like thinkers, but we love doers!

Team Player

We do things differently at Scotty’s; we don’t have line managers; we are all accountable to each other. This means that whoever takes on this role will need to recognise the power of collaboration, be comfortable managing their own time and understand the part they play in making the team great.

Conscientious

As a small but growing team, we need team members that really care about the impact of the work they do. We’re looking for you to demonstrate your passion and rigour throughout the recruitment process and beyond.

Humble

Our vision is to build a team stronger than the sum of its parts. Acknowledging our weaknesses and learning from our mistakes helps us to grow. If you love the idea of developing your skillset within a supportive environment, then Scotty’s could be for you.
