Somebody Cares was established in 2002 by Jennifer Taylor (Founder) and Brian Taylor (CEO) and has since become a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (SCIO) committed to improving the welfare of those facing challenging times within Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire.
Somebody Cares strive to combat poverty and provide second chances to those trapped in addiction, victims of cuckooing, domestic violence or mounting debt, those with mental illness, physical and life limiting illnesses, asylum seekers, ex-offenders, young parents and teenagers who have become homeless.
The charity accepts donations of furnishings, household items, clothes and food in great quantities and either donates them free of charge to the charity clients or sells them to customers of the retail outlets to generate income.
Somebody Cares is currently recruiting for:
- Business Development Manager
- Fundraiser
- Social Media & Marketing Coordinator
Somebody Cares is keen to work with great people from a wide variety of backgrounds. They are a values-based charity and welcome applications from all sectors and from people with a passion for existing work and future potential. Equality, diversity, and inclusion is as important in employees and governance as it is in our work.
The charity is looking for highly strategic, visionaries who think boldly and are happy to promote new ideas and thinking.
Applicants should bring energy, strong values, a team ethic and excellent communication skills, a sharp eye for detail, be passionate about charity work and have a strong understanding of how to gather, synthesise and reflect a diversity of perspectives and needs to develop the charity for future generations.
Like the rest of the team at Somebody Cares you will be motivated to adopt an equitable approach to everything you do.
