The City of Edinburgh's Outdoor Learning Team consists of two residential centres, a city-based resource centre, a technical advice service and a city facility called The Risk Factory. This post is an in-person support post, not suitable for remote working. Successful candidates will be based primarily at our Bangholm Outdoor Centre base and be required to support management of Outdoor Learning resources across the City, including Bonaly Scout Centre.

We are seeking an organised and self-motivated individual to join our Outdoor Learning Team. The primary role will be to manage resources for the direct delivery of outdoor learning programmes across the city.

The successful candidate will support the operation of Bangholm Outdoor Centre by coordinating the storage, organising, issuing and maintenance of a range of outdoor equipment, resources and tools.

Good organisational skills and a flexible approach are essential to manage a varied workload. Experience of managing resources and of maintaining records is desirable. The ability to drive Council vehicles is desirable.

For more detail about the role, please see the attached City of Edinburgh Council Stores Support Officer Job Description. Please note, this is a generic job description which covers the Stores Support Officer role at each of our three centres and as such there are some elements that do not apply to the City based role, e.g. sailing and safety boat checks.

Please contact us at outdoorlearning@edinburgh.gov.uk if you wish to discuss further.
