Huntly Development Trust (HDT) is a nationally-recognised community organisation working to improve the quality of life in the market town of Huntly, Aberdeenshire and the surrounding area. We do this with the support of more than 600 members, a dedicated team of 26 staff (14 full-time equivalent), the guidance of 8 committed volunteer Trustees, and through collaboration with others to tackle local challenges and create real, positive change.
HDT is a key partner in delivering the community-led Huntly 2030 strategy which aims to strengthen the town centre and create lasting social, economic and environmental benefits. The flagship project of our work to date is our acquisition and redevelopment of Number 30. This has seen us transform a vacant former department store in Huntly town centre into a vibrant multi-use hub, incorporating a café, cinema and performance venue, gallery and event space, co-working facilities, learning and conference spaces, Banking Hub and other community facilities. The building opened in August 2024 and was immediately embraced by our community. In those two years it has become the heart of the town and wider area.
Number 30 has already proved itself a hugely valuable resource for Huntly and district. It hosts an abundance of local activities and events and draws visitors to Huntly from further afield. We see it as an anchor in community efforts to give our town centre a new purpose in the 21st Century. Its success has given people renewed faith in the future, and we see it acting as a catalyst for further investment in Huntly.
We are now seeking an experienced and motivated Number 30 Manager to continue this success and lead the operations and development of this award-winning initiative into a new phase. Working closely with the HDT board, staff, volunteers and partners, you will ensure the venue delivers exceptional customer experiences, remains financially sustainable and continues to meet the needs of the community and its visitors.
This varied and rewarding leadership role requires a blend of commercial awareness, operational excellence and a passion for community development. The successful candidate will be a proactive, resilient leader who thrives in a dynamic environment and can inspire others while balancing multiple priorities.
