Programme Manager

Greener Kirkcaldy is a community-led charity and social enterprise. We run a wide range of projects, tackling climate change and social injustice and bringing our community together.

We are looking for an experienced operational manager to join our team as Programme Manager.

This is a new post. Our staff team is growing as we expand our programme of work to meet the needs of our community and tackle the twin climate and cost-of-living crises. You will be joining Greener Kirkcaldy along with other new staff at an exciting time for the charity.

You will lead and support Project Managers and Coordinators to deliver operational objectives and you will play a lead role in quality management and impact evaluation across the organisation.

Greener Kirkcaldy’s work is diverse and includes programmes of action on climate change and food insecurity. We deliver projects, events and skills training to meet the needs and goals of local people – working towards a future where everyone can live better and tread more lightly on our planet. We are based in the heart of Kirkcaldy, with a community building, bike shop and gardens. We work in Kirkcaldy and across Fife, often in partnership with other charities and public-sector organisations.

The Programme Manager will support four teams, which deliver a range of grant-funded projects and social enterprise (income-generating) activities. The post-holder will also play an organisation-wide role, leading initiatives to improve operational and quality management policies and systems, and impact evaluation.

Hours of work: 28 hours per week (0.8 full-time equivalent) but we would consider requests for fewer hours.
