About Aberlour
Children's Charity

Aberlour is one of the largest Scottish
children's charities, celebrating 150 years helping to improve
the lives of Scotland's disadvantaged children and young people.
At Aberlour we know that not all children are born with an equal
chance. Together, we will be brave for children, young people and
families and will overcome poverty, disadvantage and
discrimination.



Aberlour's mission is to reach Scotland's
disadvantaged children as early as possible to stop damage being
done, before families reach crisis point, before it's too late.
Taking action quickly, significantly improves long-term outcomes
for children and young people and raising additional funds to
support this work is crucial.


What we are
looking for:

support and impact reports is key to the success of this
role. Utilising a database management system, you will be highly
