Govan Community Project | SC042012 | SC390721 |
If we have more than one vacancy that you think your skills are a good match for, then we want to hear from you. Diversity empowers communities and ours is no different. If your skills don’t fit into one box, then we won’t put them there. Apply for all roles that you think fit.
Govan Community Project currently has the following opportunities:
Community Meals Coordinator
You will be responsible for facilitating the delivery of our monthly community meals which we host at the
Salvation Army hall opposite our Govan office. You will facilitate a group of chef volunteers to cook together
in the hall’s kitchen to prepare a 3-course hot meal using fresh, healthy produce that is culturally
appropriate for approximately 70 drop-in guests. You will liaise with other staff members and volunteers to
coordinate the hall set-up and safe, hygienic organisation of the day (set-up, serving, and clearing-up). You
will ensure the meals are a safe, inclusive, welcoming environment for members of the local community
and encourage intercultural understanding and reduce social isolation.

*Our meals are currently on Wednesdays, 12.30pm-1.30pm, with the full day lasting 9am-4pm. Outwith
meal weeks, you will liaise with the community chef volunteers to plan the menu and purchase ingredients.
From July 2026, some flexibility will be required over working hours to meet the needs of the project – i.e.
on weeks when meals run, you will likely need to work over 7 hours to buy ingredients/liaise with
volunteers, on other weeks you will work less hours.
Our ideal candidate will have experience of working and/or volunteering with vulnerable people and those
going through the asylum process, and an awareness of trauma-informed practice. You will have
experience of facilitating a group of community volunteer chefs, and understand the principles of social
justice, empowerment and integration issues. Alongside confidence in budgeting and monitoring and
evaluation methods, you will have excellent time management and interpersonal skills.
Women's Group Coordinator
You will be responsible for coordinating group activities which will create a safe, inclusive space to support
the group members’ wellbeing and support integration in the Greater Govan area, working in partnership
with GCP community members, key stakeholders and external agencies.
This is a great opportunity to join a vibrant, dedicated team working in a diverse community.
