About Ramblers Scotland

Ramblers Scotland is a registered charity and the leading voice for walkers in Scotland. We exist to help everyone, everywhere enjoy walking. We know how much it contributes to improvements in individual and community wellbeing, and our strategy sets out to tackle the barriers that prevent more people from enjoying those benefits.

Vice Convener – Ramblers Scotland Strategic Committee

About the Role

As Vice Convener of the Ramblers Scotland Strategic Committee (RSSC), you’ll play a key role in supporting the Convener and contributing to the strategic direction of our work. The committee oversees our activities in Scotland, helping to ensure that walking is accessible, enjoyable, and open to all.

This is a strategic and advisory role — there is no operational decision-making responsibility. You’ll collaborate closely with fellow volunteers and staff to help shape our campaigns, policies, and priorities, aligning your leadership with the organisation’s refreshed strategy — which emphasises removing barriers to walking, improving access for under-represented communities, and safeguarding natural spaces.

This volunteer role also provides an excellent career development opportunity — offering experience in governance, strategic planning, and leadership within a national charity.

This is a national volunteer role that involves quarterly in-person meetings, with occasional ad hoc sub-committee meetings (often online). While the role is unpaid, reasonable expenses (e.g. travel and subsistence) will be reimbursed.
