Leisure & Culture Dundee (L&CD) is an independent Scottish charity that delivers many of Dundee's leisure, sport, library, cultural and heritage services on behalf of the city. From leisure centres and wellbeing programmes to museums, libraries, events and cultural venues, our services make a positive difference to the lives of millions of residents and visitors every year.

Guided by our values of service excellence, collaboration, innovation and inclusion, we are committed to creating a healthier, more connected and vibrant Dundee. As we deliver our Corporate Strategy 2025-2029, we are seeking two new independent Trustees to help shape the next chapter of our journey.

As a Trustee, you will play an important strategic role in supporting the governance, sustainability and long-term success of Leisure & Culture Dundee.

Working alongside fellow Trustees, elected members and the Senior Management Team, you will help shape organisational strategy, oversee performance and financial stewardship, ensure effective risk management and provide constructive challenge to support sound decision-making.

This is an opportunity to contribute your expertise to an organisation that has a significant impact on communities across Dundee, while developing valuable Board-level experience within a supportive and collaborative environment.

The commitment averages circa one to two days per month and includes Board meetings, Committee participation, strategic planning activities and attendance at key organisational events. Appointments are for a six-year term commencing following the AGM in November 2026.

We are looking for people who are passionate about improving lives through leisure, sport, culture and learning, and who can bring fresh perspectives, strategic insight and strong professional judgement to our Board.

Previous Trustee experience is not essential. We welcome applications from individuals who can demonstrate leadership experience, sound decision-making skills and a commitment to good governance.

We are particularly interested in candidates with expertise in:

• Digital Leadership and Digital Transformation - experience using technology to improve services, accessibility, customer experience and organisational effectiveness.
• Income Generation and Diversification - experience in commercial growth, fundraising, partnerships, business development or creating sustainable income streams.

If you're looking for an opportunity to contribute your skills to an organisation at the heart of Dundee's communities while helping shape its future direction, we'd love to hear from you.

About One Community Scotland

One Community Scotland is an award-winning, youth-led charity that supports young people aged 14-24 from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic communities, with a particular focus on those settling as New Scots in Scotland.

We believe every young person should have the opportunity to feel safe, valued and empowered to achieve their full potential, regardless of their background or circumstances.

Working alongside young people, families and communities, we help remove barriers to inclusion and create opportunities that enable young people to thrive.

Our programmes support young people to:

· Overcome language barriers and build confidence.

· Develop financial literacy and life skills.

· Understand the Scottish education, employment and legal systems.

· Gain work experience, volunteering and apprenticeship opportunities

· Access First Aid and Mental Health Awareness training.

· Build positive relationships, resilience and a sense of belonging.

· Develop the skills and confidence to participate fully in their communities.

Our work is grounded in a trauma-informed, person-centred and wellbeing -focused approach, recognising the strengths, experiences and aspirations of every young person we support.

By working in partnership with young people, families, schools, employers and community organisations, we help create pathways to education, employment, personal development and active citizenship, contributing to stronger, safer and more inclusive communities across Scotland.

Our Mission

To empower and support young people in Scotland, particularly those who are new to the country, by providing a welcoming community, mentorship and resources that help them overcome challenges and achieve their personal and professional goals.

Through inclusivity, collaboration and guidance, we create pathways towards positive sustainable futures.

The Role

The Board of Trustees is responsible for the overall governance and strategic direction of One Community Scotland.

Working collectively, trustees ensure the charity remains focused on its charitable purposes, complies with the requirements of the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR), and continues to provide effective support for young people and their families.

Our Board works closely with a dedicated and experience staff team, providing support, challenge and strategic guidance while ensuring good governance and accountability.

We’re Looking for People Who:

We are looking for Trustees who will bring enthusiasm, commitment and a genuine willingness to actively contribute to the work and development of One Community Scotland.

A key attribute for us is being a keen and active contributor. Being a Trustee is more than attending Board meetings. We are looking for people who are willing to engage with the organisation, participate in discussions, ask questions, contribute ideas, share their knowledge and experience, and play an active role in helping us achieve our strategic aims.

· Share our passion for supporting young people and creating positive change.

· Enjoy working collaboratively as part of a team.

· Are committed to equality, inclusion and community empowerment.

Experience in Human Resources would be particularly valuable, but enthusiasm, commitment and a willingness to contribute are just as important.

We believe diverse perspectives strengthen our Board, and we welcome applications from people who may be taking on a trustee role for the first time.

Access to governance training, and ongoing mentoring will be provided, ensuring you have the knowledge and confident to fulfil the role effectively.

You do not need to have all the answers. What matters is that you are willing to listen, learn, contribute and work collectively with other Trustees and the staff team.

· Make a lasting difference to the lives of young people

· Help shape the strategic direction of an award-winning youth-led charity.

· Develop your leadership and governance experience.
