Heritage Project Manager & Fundraiser Parish of Dunkeld: Restoration of 13th Century choir of Dunkeld Cathedral

Background: Restoring an iconic 13th century historic building

The Parish of Dunkeld is undertaking an exciting restoration of the 13th century part of the building still used by the congregation, “the choir”. To make the Choir of the Cathedral a building fit for purpose and preserve it for future generations, we need to do a wide-ranging programme of work both internally and externally.

This once in a hundred-year project will enable the cathedral to be accessed safely and used year-round by the congregation and the community for generations to come.

In addition, it will allow for increased and improved interpretation of the history and heritage of the building providing a better experience for visitors. We consider improved interpretation of our building as key to its long-term future and sustainability, and improvements in this will determine the success of the project.

We plan to make a formal delivery phase application to the National Lottery Heritage Fund (NLHF) in 2026 and seek support from an experienced heritage project manager, who has fundraising experience to help us with this application, working with our Design Team of consultants, led by Oberlanders Architects with Alan Marshall, including Narro Associates, Irons Foulner and Morham & Brotchie and our Visitor Engagement Consultants, Community Enterprise.

Purpose of the role

This role will be responsible for project managing and overseeing the initial phase of the restoration project (relationships with the project team, Kirk Session, Design team, visitor engagement consultants, key funders) with the joint aims of

• preparing the delivery phase application to the NLHF, and

• seeking sufficient matched funding to enable a delivery phase application to the NLHF in 2026

Our key challenge at this stage of the project is to find sufficient matched funding before our Heritage Fund application and before we receive Heritage Fund Delivery Stage permission to start.

This is a £4.2m project with a 9–12-month development phase followed by a two-year delivery phase (subject to securing further funding). We have secured initial funding for the development phase from National Lottery Heritage Fund (NLHF) and support from Historic Environment Scotland (HES) towards the delivery phase. The development stage of the project will run from April 2026 until submission of the Delivery Phase application. We are aiming to submit this application by 12 Nov 2026. The delivery stage will run from the date when permission to start is received from a successful NLHF delivery phase bid. We estimate that this will be around June 2027.

As a National Lottery Heritage Fund supported project, delivering the matched funding element of this project is key to successfully completing the Development Phase and releasing the funding required for the Delivery Phase.

You will map progress against the initial aims of the project, co-ordinate consultants, seek funding opportunities and work with the volunteer team to draft and make appropriate and timely applications.

The successful candidate will also be expected to manage the day-to-day administration of the project, making sure deadlines are met, grant applications are made, reports submitted on time and grant claims are made

We estimate that 1-2 days per week will be required for this work, varying around milestones and key deadlines.

Home-Start Glasgow North and North Lanarkshire (HSGNNL) is seeking committed individuals who are passionate about improving the lives of parents and young children, can think strategically and independently, communicate effectively, and are committed to equality, diversity, inclusion, and the charity’s values, to join its Board of Trustees. In particular, we are keen to hear from those with a back ground in IT, finance and law.

Trustees play a key role in ensuring HSGNNL fulfils its mission and operates effectively. They are responsible for the charity’s overall governance, strategy, financial oversight, and risk management, while supporting and constructively challenging the Senior Management Team. Trustees work collectively to guide the organisation, monitor performance, review policies and finances, and promote HSGNNL’s aims and reputation using their skills, knowledge, and networks.

HSGNNL is a community-based charity providing trained volunteer and specialist support to families with young children during difficult times. It supports families with at least one child under five living in North Glasgow and North Lanarkshire, helping those affected by challenges such as mental and physical health issues, isolation, domestic abuse, trauma linked to the asylum process, and multiple births. Families are referred by professionals including Health Visitors, Social Work, Midwifery and Education, or can self-refer. Alongside volunteer home visiting, the charity also offers group activities, intensive family support, Video Interaction Guidance (VIG), and perinatal support. Over the last year we have worked in partnership with NHS colleagues, in particular midwifery, and other third sector partners to establish an Early Years Family Hub which we are keen to develop further.

Clackmannanshire Community Planning Partnership seeks to develop and test a holistic programme of support for people experiencing gambling harm within a Whole Family Support context. The need for this programme will be addressed via three interlinked elements: Prevention, Treatment and Harm reduction.

We aim to improve health and life expectancy, promote health and wellbeing, reduce health-harming activities and improve individual’s social connectedness, and enable equitable access to health and wellbeing through a preventative and early intervention approach.

The Senior Community Connector will work across our well-established whole family support system, linking individuals into supports to help reduce harm and access treatment. This additional post will work closely with gambling support partners (i.e. RCA Trust and Fast Forward), the Alcohol and Drugs Partnership, the Health and Social Care Partnership, and have access to our wider partnership network to create a package of holistic wrap-around support for individuals and their families.

This post will involve targeted outreach to engage with key population groups, namely women experiencing gambling harm; those with experience of housing insecurity and homelessness; those with experience of problematic substance use; and young people aged 16-24. This post will work closely with a new Income Maximisation Officer through the Citizens Advice Bureau. The post holder will be expected to develop a strong working relationship with CAB, Clackmannanshire Council’s Revenue and Benefits team as well as wider partners in our Whole Family Support system, to generate awareness and referrals for people at risk of gambling harm.
