Community Jobs Scotland

Community Jobs Scotland (CJS) is an employability programme delivered by SCVO which works with voluntary sector employers to create job opportunities for unemployed people aged 16 to 29.

The programme has a focus on those most disadvantaged in the labour market – those who are care experienced or are carers themselves, early Armed Forces service leavers, those with criminal convictions and those who have disabilities or other health issues – and has already created jobs for 9,000 young people across the country.

 Get involved: Employers
CJS already works with hundreds of employers across Scotland, with thousands of vacancies filled to date. The service aims to complete approximately 200 jobs by 31 March 2021.
