Raasay Development Trust (RDT) is looking for a motivated, experienced Community Development Officer to help shape a thriving, climate-resilient future for one of Scotland's most distinctive island communities.

Raasay is one of six islands in the Scottish Government's Carbon Neutral Islands programme, working to become net zero by 2040 — ahead of the rest of Scotland. This is a hands-on role leading delivery of our Community Climate Action Plan: the projects that turn our ambitions into reality.

About the role

As CNI Community Development Officer you will take projects from early development through to delivery — building the relationships, workplans and local capacity needed to make them work and to ensure the value created lasts. This is the majority of the role, alongside communications and engagement, research and collaboration, and shared administrative duties.

A unique opportunity within the role is leading the establishment of a Raasay Energy Local Club in partnership with Raasay Community Renewables, Energy Local, Community Energy Scotland and other island partners — selling locally-generated hydro power to residents and businesses at a reduced rate. Other projects include housing retrofit, Raasay House retrofit, a venison processing facility retrofit, food growing, habitat restoration, and marine carbon and biodiversity research.

Who we're looking

for We're looking for someone motivated, self-reliant and community-focused, with:

• Experience leading projects, including managing timelines, stakeholders and budgets

• Financial planning and management skills

• A track record of fundraising and grant management

• Strong communication and relationship-building skills

• A genuine understanding of island or rural life

• The ability to thrive in an environment where there's no handbook

Specialist knowledge in renewable energy, retrofit, land management, ecology, sustainable transport, local food systems or marine management is desirable but not essential.

Terms

• Full time (1.0 FTE, 35 hrs/wk)

• £32,000 + 5% pension contribution

• Fixed term to 31st March 2027 (potential for renewal subject to performance and funding)

• Based on Raasay with hybrid and home working arrangements available

• Flexible hours and generous annual leave package

Harmeny Education Trust is a charitable organisation providing therapeutic care and education to children who have experienced early years trauma through abuse, neglect and family disruption, referred from all over Scotland. We currently work with children and young people aged 5-18, both on a day and all-year-round residential basis.

Our core service comprises:

An education service, which includes an outdoor learning team.

A care service, with five residential cottages.

Support services, made up of Finance, Estates, Catering and Domestic, Fundraising, IT, HR, Learning and Development, and Admin teams.

Children who come to Harmeny often have severe attachment disorders, have suffered some form of early years trauma leading to high levels of anxiety and difficulty in managing their behaviour, as well as a range of complex needs. Through highly therapeutic care and education programmes, we help children to gain the skills and resilience to lead healthy and happy adult lives.

We are registered with the Scottish Social Services Council, General Teaching Council for Scotland, Care Inspectorate, Education Scotland, and The Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR).

Harmeny is situated in a beautiful 35-acre woodland estate, which includes a community garden, orchard, wildlife habitats, children’s play areas and a mountain bike track. Harmeny is located in Balerno on the outskirts of Edinburgh, at the foot of the Pentland Hills; we are easily accessible by bus and there is ample parking.

Education

Local authorities/Social work

Therapeutic practices

Digital

Corporate

Finance and Treasury

Trustees are expected to prepare for and attend four Board meetings per year. Meetings are ideally in-person, albeit we can accommodate remote attendance as required. Additional meetings may be held for urgent matters that do not fit with the set calendar of meetings.

Trustees are also expected to be involved in other matters, for example to join a sub-committee relevant to their skill set or working group, take part in a recruitment panel, attend Harmeny events, attend meetings with the Senior Leadership Team to audit progress against objectives, or support Harmeny’s work externally. Sub-committees meet in advance of the main meetings for a shorter duration, and are generally conducted virtually.

Harmeny is committed to equality of opportunity and the promotion of diversity, including in relation to its Board. We welcome applications from all parts of society, and we encourage applications from individuals from diverse ethnic backgrounds and those who are care-experienced.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a team of Trustees in a friendly organisation making a difference to the lives of some of Scotland’s most remarkable children. Support and mentoring can be provided to the successful candidate, particularly those who may be early in their career and/or lacking experience in acting as a board member. An induction programme will be provided.

A fuller job description and person specification can be found using the link below. Harmeny is a values-led organisation and a good fit with our ethos is as important to us as having relevant experience.

There is no remuneration attached to the role but out-of-pocket expenses will be reimbursed.

INVERCLYDE CULTURE COLLECTIVE

Inverclyde Culture Collective Lead Partners are:

*Inverclyde Council (Lead)

*CVS Inverclyde – who support, promote and represent Inverclyde’s third sector organisations.

*RIG Arts - a multi-award winning socially engaged arts charity based in Inverclyde

*Beacon Art Centre - a contemporary theatre and arts venue in the heart of Inverclyde

*Creative Recovery Inverclyde - an arts strand nestled within the heart of Your Voice’s Lived

*Theatre School of Scotland (TSOS) – who offer a variety of performing arts classes in Greenock

Our proposal builds on the success of our previous Inverclyde Culture Collective (ICC 2021-2023) to create 18 months of new activity from June 2026 devised from the Inverclyde Arts & Creativity Action Plan (2024-2029). Our overall focus will be an exploration of our “Creative Health” – a strong thread that emerged through previous delivery, leading to the inclusion of a “Creative Health Statement” within the “Inverclyde Health & Social Care Strategic Commissioning Plan” (2024 – 2027). We will also explore themes linked to the Climate Crisis, including climate anxiety.

This project will create paid opportunities for both salaried and freelance Creative Practitioners to engage with communities that have low arts engagement. Inverclyde Culture Collective will provide both emerging and established artists with the opportunity to push the boundaries of their own practice and look for radical solutions to sensitively collaborate and make work with local communities.
