St Andrews Botanic Garden Trust is looking to recruit two trustees to join its Board of Directors at a time of significant organisational transformation and change.

We are looking for capable, organised and experienced individuals with a strong professional background who share our enthusiasm for plants and their habitats, and our broader commitment to education and sustainability. New trustees will be joining a collegial Board of Directors dedicated to supporting the Garden as it navigates new opportunities in a challenging and ever-changing environment.

Our mission of botanical conservation and education has seen us take transformational steps in a short period of time, including development of the Garden’s habitats, investment in building projects, growth in the team, establishment of national and regional partnerships, and publication of research that establishes the botanic garden’s expertise in urban ecology.

These steps have been critical to establishing strong foundations, and our focus now is to consolidate this progress by preparing for ambitious capital investment and in turn, growth in turnover and expansion of our charitable activities. The success of these next steps will depend on governance and strategic plans that connect our mission and opportunities with society’s most pressing environmental and social challenges.
