    This is an opportunity for a person from a black and minority ethnic community to develop a career in social housing. 

    PATH (Scotland) is offering a thirty-six month Positive Action Training Scheme, which has been specifically designed to redress the under-representation of black and minority ethnic communities in employment in Scottish Housing. PATH works in collaboration with local authority housing departments and registered social landlords across Scotland to provide housing training opportunities. This traineeship is in partnership with Kingdom Housing Association, which provides housing and support throughout east central Scotland. They have plans for a significant expansion of their housing stock over the next five years.

    The training involves thirty-six months’ work experience, specialist qualifications and professional membership.

    At the end of the programme, trainees can compete for jobs in the Scottish Housing sector.

    Requirements

    Applicants should be:

    • from Black and Minority Ethnic communities and committed to a housing career
    • willing to undertake a demanding training and study programme over thirty six months - four days’ work experience (between Monday and Friday), which includes one day of attendance at college or university during the academic year.

    Applicants should have:

    • excellent communication skills
    • a full driving licence and access to their own vehicle 
    • a flexible attitude to work
    • the ability to work under pressure 
    • the ability to work with minimal supervision
