Position Overview & Specifications

The Anchor Highland Cash Back Service

(Funded by Scottish Government Cash Back for Communities Phase 6) .

This Service is a community based hub in Inverness, with a targeted, assertive outreach response team focusing on individuals subjected to exploitation aged primarily 13 to 18.

The Anchor Highland Cash Back will focus on three key areas of support:

Street Work - The team engage with young people through street work, building trusting relationships by identifying needs and providing information and advice. The Anchor Hub building is accessible in evenings and weekends, offering a safe space where young people receive hot food and refreshments.

Alternative Space - The Hub offers an alternative space for young people, to reduce the number of young people congregating in unsafe locations and who risk involvement in anti-social behaviours and becoming targets for criminal/sexual perpetrators. Anchor also provides telephone and text services.

A trauma informed, rights based, relational approach - This activity underpins our work with young people. By listening to them, we promote their strengths and assets and what matters to them and ensure that young people's needs are identified, and they receive timely, responsive support to reduce the risk of problems escalating and the need for increasing statutory intervention.

The Anchor Highland is part of a wider Highland partnership and therefore the post holder will need to be innovative, an excellent communicator and have the ability to work effectively with partners to meet service outcomes.

The post holder will be required to work evenings and weekends as part of service delivery.
