Jane’s Professional Background

Jane holds an MA in Psychology, a Certificate in Counselling Skills, and has successfully completed her SVQ4 in Leadership and Management for Care Services. She is a registered and regulated Manager with the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC), bringing both academic and sector-specific qualifications to her leadership role.

She brings a wealth of experience in client-facing roles and has long been a respected voice in the organisation—someone who not only understands our values but actively embodies them in every decision she makes.

Her deep understanding of neurodivergence, sensory needs, and the development of independent living skills allows her to dynamically assess outcomes and service effectiveness in real time, ensuring we remain person-centred while continuing to challenge and stretch our young adult population. Jane leads with empathy and structure, ensuring that every young person’s journey through Edge is underpinned by safety, dignity, and purpose.

As Client Services Director, Jane takes the lead on person-centred practice, MAPS and PATH implementation, case reviews, and client development, as well as driving new initiatives to support our adult population. Her leadership strengthens quality assurance and family engagement while ensuring our practice evolves in line with the needs, aspirations, and rights of those we support. Her approach remains grounded in a strong moral compass and a clear adherence to the legislation and standards that govern our sector.
