Job description

Location: Hybrid working

Salary: £30,300 - £34,256


If you’re looking for a rewarding career and to work within an inspirational team that really does make a difference, this is your opportunity to join our National Self-Harm Network.

Self-Harm is when someone deliberately harms themselves. It is a very personal response to a complex range of different factors such as dealing with emotional pain, feeling disconnected, and/or feeling stressed. There is also increasing evidence of the link between the experience of trauma and self-harm.

Penumbra began to develop services for young people who self-harm around 25 years ago. Today, we remain one of a few organisations that has specific services for people who self-harm. We provide services for people (currently 16+) who self-harm in Edinburgh, Aberdeen, North Ayrshire and South Ayrshire (where we work with secondary schools and people 12-18 years), Fife and Dundee.

In addition to the services above we are funded by Scottish Government to deliver a programme of support, resources and education that will inform future planning for self-harm support. This is an exciting opportunity to play a role in work of significance and impact, the learning from which will help shape the Scottish Government’s planned self-harm strategy, and action plan.


As a Service Manager you will manage, support and supervise a diverse staff team to ensure the needs of individuals are met and the service provided is run effectively. Our team provides access to support, tools and information via an on-line portal and we have community-based teams in the areas of Dundee, Glasgow, and Highlands and Islands. Learning from this work will inform the development of the new Self-Harm strategy for Scotland.

With the aim of supporting people who self-harm to reduce levels of distress and reduce the risk of harm we take a strengths-based coaching approach to recovery which is used to build confidence and improve wellbeing

Promoting participation and inclusion is a core value of the service which is designed and delivered by people with lived experience. We work alongside people to deliver innovative, creative and personalised support and opportunities.

We want you to grow and thrive! We will support you on your own career path; developing new skills, accessing formal and informal learning experiences and providing opportunities to put your continual progress into practice.
