Job Vacancies | Network Programme

Street Soccer Scotland are pleased to announce three new exciting opportunities which will help the growth of our network programme.

The network programme was created to bring greater access to our services around the country. Historically, Street Soccer has worked predominantly out of Scotland’s four largest cities and in 2020 we started the development of our network programme, which aimed to partner with local organisations in more outlying communities. This concept has had great success so far, with partners combining their expertise and local knowledge with our support services, to create five new sessions around Scotland.

With permanent network sessions happening every week in Livingston, Motherwell, Hamilton, Glenrothes and Stenhousemuir, with further taster sessions in Oban, we are now looking forward to expanding even further.
