Help us turn community ambition into practical delivery in the West Highlands.

About us

Kinlochleven Community Trust (KCT) is the Community Anchor Organisation for our village, set between mountains and sea at the head of Loch Leven in Lochaber. We are a community-led charity managing a range of assets and services that matter locally — from community facilities, paths and woodland to e-bike hire, an AIRES motorhome site and the developing Aluminium Story Museum.

Supported by the Scottish Government / DTAS Strengthening Communities Programme and the Highland Community Regeneration Fund, KCT is entering an important three-year development period. We want to grow income, strengthen systems, deepen community engagement, and explore long-term arrangements for strategic local sites.

The role

We are looking for a Development Manager: a practical, organised and ambitious person who can take community ideas and make them real.

Working closely with the Board, you will lead day-to-day delivery across income generation, asset and lease management, governance, monitoring and reporting, community engagement and partnership working. Income generation is at the heart of the job — a core priority is helping KCT identify and secure the funding needed, through new grants and stronger earned income, to continue this post and our wider work in Years 2 and 3.

This is a varied, hands-on role with real scope for someone who enjoys spotting opportunities and turning them into income — whether that is e-bike hire, visitor donations, the AIRES site, an events programme, or grant fundraising.

What you will do

• Lead income generation: grow earned and donation-based income, develop the events programme, support the Ice Factor lease arrangement, develop the Aluminium Story Museum as a sustainable visitor attraction, and identify and secure further grant and trust funding.
• Strengthen asset management: develop business and maintenance plans, improve lease and tenant records, and help the Board explore long-term arrangements for strategic local sites including the Kinlochleven Business Park.
• Improve governance, finance, monitoring and reporting: including maintaining a combined monitoring and evaluation framework and submitting quarterly CRF and SCP funder reports on time.
• Improve communication and engagement with members, residents, tenants, visitors and partners.
• Support land, environmental and visitor activity: paths, woodland, public realm and visitor infrastructure.
• Help KCT live its Fair Work First commitments and operate as a fair, well-run small employer.

Who we are looking for

You will probably bring much of the following:

• Experience in community development, project management, asset management, charity management, social enterprise or fundraising.
• A track record in identifying and securing grant funding and/or developing earned income for a charitable or community organisation.
• Strong organisational, communication and report-writing skills and the ability to manage a varied workload.
• Financial awareness including budgeting, income monitoring and grant reporting.
• The ability to work constructively with a voluntary Board and build relationships with tenants, funders, public bodies, partners and community members.
• Working knowledge of Scottish charity governance and OSCR expectations.
• A full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle (or a clear plan for travelling reliably across Lochaber), and the right to live and work in the UK without restriction.

Experience of community asset management, Community Right to Buy, rural community organisations, or delivering against SCP/CRF or similar Scottish Government funding is desirable but not essential. We are far more interested in the right person than the perfect CV.

Why work with KCT?

• A genuinely meaningful role in a small, ambitious, community-led charity at an important moment in its development.
• Real autonomy and breadth — no two weeks the same, and the chance to shape a job rather than inherit one.
• Salary of £32,000 per annum in line with our Fair Work First commitments.
• 20 days’ paid annual leave plus 9 Scottish public holidays, auto-enrolment workplace pension, and flexible working by agreement.
• Working life in one of the most beautiful corners of Scotland, with mountains, lochs, walking, climbing and the Ice Factor on the doorstep.

Due to internal promotion, we are excited to share news of an opening for a new Executive within our Partnerships and Philanthropy Team, aligned to Corporate Partnerships.

The Corporate Partnerships team are moving through a period of growth which will set this team up to strategically focus their resources and skill where it is most needed in order to attract, cultivate and retain valuable corporate partnerships.

Reporting to the Senior Partnership Executive, the Partnership Executive will be involved in maintaining existing supporter relationships through the Corporate Fundraising journey, ensuring all possible opportunities for revenue generation are utilised.

This role is contracted for a temporary period until 31 March 2027 when this arrangement will be reviewed.

About you

To be successful in this role, you will have skill and experience in the following areas:

• Experience of working in account management in either a fundraising or commercial environment.
• Experience of achieving and exceeding income targets or growing income.
• The ability to seek out, identify and build on opportunities to maximise income.
• Ability to represent CHAS internally and externally.
• Excellent communicator with the ability to adapt communication style to meet the needs of varied audiences.
• Driven and engaging personality with strong people skills.
• Driving Licence and access to a car

Why CHAS?

At CHAS, we support families during the toughest of times. We have ambitions to reach every family in Scotland who is living with the heart-breaking prognosis that their child is dying and offer them our care and support to empower them to make the most of the short time they have together. The skill, determination and creative flair of our Fundraising Teams makes this possible.

This is a pivotal moment to join CHAS. We’ve just launched More Than A Hospice - a £20 million appeal to change how Scotland cares for children who will die young, and for the families who love them. Every week, three children in Scotland die from an incurable illness, and advances in medicine mean more children are living longer with complex, life‑shortening conditions - a gift, but one that demands change.

Right now, too many families don’t have real choice throughout their child’s life, or at the end of it - and are sometimes forced into decisions because the care they need isn’t always there when it’s needed. We believe Scotland can - and must - do better. Joining CHAS now means being part of an ambitious appeal that aims to ensure care follows the child - at home, in hospital, or in a hospice so no family faces that moment alone

We offer

• Flexible Working: our teams work flexibly and in a hybrid manner with time split between at home and onsite in Edinburgh and Glasgow.
• Development Opportunities: exposure to a variety of fundraising activities
• Professional Growth: Work with industry leaders in a high-performing team where you will be encouraged and supported to excel and develop your skills.
• Comprehensive Benefits: Including generous annual leave and pension, incremental salary progression, access to Blue Light discounts, and health and wellbeing support.

"Do you want to work in one of the most scenic parts of Scotland? Do you have the skills and energy to take the helm of Torridon District Community Association and Loch Torridon Community Centre. This is an exciting opportunity to develop the centre, diversify its range of activities and increase income. You will never be far from the sea or mountains and you will be working alongside people who share a passion for the landscape, environment and long-term sustainability of the community. “

Vision

Our vision is to enhance, develop and support this fragile rural community, enabling its residents to thrive, and to create a welcoming environment for the many tourists whose presence in turn supports the ongoing sustainability of the community.

Background

Torridon District Community Association (TDCA) is a charity which runs Loch Torridon Community Centre (LTCC) and employs a part time centre manager, a part time finance officer and a part time cleaner. In addition, TDCA employs a full-time community development worker to develop community projects and assets which in time will generate income to support the community centre. TDCA also employs a part time resilience officer to increase the resilience of the local community.

LTCC is a hub for year-round social activities and events, promoting physical and mental health and wellbeing. It is a meeting point for the community and provides employment opportunities for local residents and space for services such as the Post Office, Community cinema, live music, osteopathy clinics, gym and other health activities. The café is an important part of the centre, bringing together both residents and visitors, while the art and craft gallery provides locals artists and community businesses the opportunity to exhibit and display their products, generating sales, particularly in the tourist season.

Purpose of the post

As the centre has grown from a small village hall to a busy hub for the whole of the Torridon district, the staffing requirements have also grown and we are now looking for a senior manager to lead on the smooth running of the Community Centre; to promote the use of the Centre more widely; to increase TDCA revenue and capital grants; and to ensure the continued success of the annual Celtman event. The Board of Directors has been directly involved in many aspects of running the centre and now needs to appoint someone to take over that work, freeing Directors up to focus on their wider remit while supporting the operations & events manager as s/he develops into the role. Beyond the centre TDCA is working on a number of additional projects which will, as the organisation grows further, become part of this new role.

Tasks

Leadership and Management

The operations & events manager will be responsible for the smooth running of the LTCC; line management including maintaining and developing team ethos; developing a volunteer strategy; oversight of running costs and income streams.

Developing LTCC and events

Promoting the LTCC for events, conferences, weddings etc; exploring new opportunities and developing a strategy to increase the use of LTCC; generating new income while ensuring facilities remain accessible to local community groups; and promoting wider community benefit from LTCC and events.

Developing and implementing a communications strategy, including social media, local communication forums and TDCA membership.

Ensuring the successful running of the annual Celtman triathlon (held in June) including negotiations with organizers (2026 negotiations complete); pre-event planning; overall co-ordination and management of the 2 weekends; and coordinate post event feedback

Funding

Developing and implementing a funding strategy for TDCA including regular donations, one-off donations and grants as well as developing relationships with key funder such as Highland Council and Highland & Islands Enterprise.

Objectives

1. Continued smooth running of the LTCC, ensure running costs are covered and increase income.
2. Increase external and community bookings of LTCC
3. Maintain a positive relationship with the Celtman team and the community and ensuring level or increased profit
4. Increase revenue and obtain grants for capital work as needed

The post will be reviewed in late September 2028 with a view to extending it if funding is available.

• The post will be based in Loch Torridon Community Centre. While most days will involve being in the Community Centre, we can offer some flexibility for 1 day a week home working;
• Working hours will be average 28 hours per week across the year.

Job-share applications and secondments will be considered;
• Some evening and weekend work may be required and time off in lieu will be offered;
• The standard paid annual leave entitlement is 30 days - pro rata 22.5 (inclusive of public/bank holidays) per calendar year;
