Scotland’s new National Performance Framework and Economic Strategy set out the Scottish Government’s purpose and vision for inclusive economic growth. A critical aspect of inclusive growth is ensuring that as many people as possible, including those further from the labour market and facing complex or challenging circumstances, have the opportunity to access fair and sustainable work.

Building on the Scottish Government and Scottish Local Government Partnership Working Agreement for Employability, we are developing a partnership ensuring greater working collaboratively between Scottish Government and Local Government. 

The roll out of the Parental Employability Support Fund (PESF)provides an opportunity to introduce a more flexible and user-based model of delivery that supports parents in local communities to progress through all stages of the Strategic Skills Pipeline into work and addresses in work poverty. 

This is an opportunity to build capacity of current support and measures in place to address child poverty and to ensure we have the right support in place for targeted family groupings providing parents additional support to participate and progress within the labour market. We believe that delivering this agenda is vital to ensure a more diverse and inclusive workforce and one which addresses the increasing challenging of In Work Poverty, and helps realise the Scottish Government’s ambition to eradicate child poverty.

The MART Support Officer will work alongside WorkEastRen’s PESF Client Advisor and MART staff to carry out benefit checks, better off calculations and budgeting advice for parents within the target group.
