Background

In 1999 Badenoch and Strathspey Community Transport Company was created by and for the people of this area to provide accessible transport. In 2022, recognising that, through our transport provision, we were providing a wider range of services, we rebranded and changed our name. More recently, we have refreshed our purpose, vision and mission.

Our purpose is to strengthen our community by providing accessible transport and wellbeing opportunities. Our work is regularly recognised at a national level, most recently in June 2025 at the Scottish Transport Awards. The organisation is growing and developing at pace, with further opportunities in the years ahead, so it is an exciting time to get involved and help shape our development. There will be several staff retirements during 2026 so a key part of this role will involve managing a successful handover with the outgoing member of staff.

BSCC is supported by eight part time staff and circa 80 volunteers, who all care passionately about our community.

Main Purpose of the Job:

The Finance Manager has two main roles: -

• Responsible for managing and ensuring the smooth running of financial processes, procedures, and bookkeeping for BSCC.
• Support the wider day to day running of the organisation.
