Start a career that genuinely improves people's lives

Rooted in Renfrewshire — serving every community

What keeps us awake at night?

Every day, we see what happens when someone finds a place to belong. A child learns to swim. A teenager discovers a passion they never knew they had. Someone who spends most days alone finds a reason to get out of the house.

Those moments can change lives. Yet too many people still miss out on the opportunities, experiences and connections that so many of us take for granted.

We don’t preach. We practise.

Integrity

We value honesty and high ethical standards in how we work within and out with our organisation: we are passionate in our determination to always do the right thing.

Creativity

We are innovative and flexible in responding to local needs; in meeting challenges, we are creative thinkers, with a consistent focus on outcomes.

Fairness

We focus on inclusion to ensure we deliver for everyone across our community; we are caring and kind to each other and in the way we support the community.

Excellence

We will work collaboratively in pursuit of our community’s shared goals; in everything we do, we aim to deliver a quality experience and actively champion high standards.

Build your muscles. Then flex them.

People join OneRen as leisure assistants, receptionists, fitness instructors or administration officers and stay for careers spanning decades, because there's always somewhere else to grow.

Our teams move across departments, take on new responsibilities, and develop skills they didn't expect to pick up. That breadth is one of our genuine strengths: a charitable trust covering culture, sport and leisure gives people a working life that's rarely the same two days running.

We invest in our people through on-the-job learning, management development and qualifications and we're honest about the opportunities that come with a growing organisation.
