Are you the right person to come and help us in that mission?

Thanks to the commitment and generosity of our supporters, the Scottish Bible Society (‘SBS’) is a charity that helps individuals and communities in over 200 countries and territories around the world to receive Bibles in a language they understand and in a format they can use. We are creative in supporting churches in Scotland to keep the Bible central and encourage meaningful engagement to deepen encounters with God.

We have an exciting opportunity in our Communications and National Ministries Teams for a Project Manager with experience working in a diverse and fast paced environment.

This is a new and exciting opportunity to support the growth of the Wester Hailes Community Trust (WHCT) and to oversee the delivery of the Wester Hailes Local Place Plan (WHLPP) - Scotland’s inaugural local place plan.

The responsibilities of this position are split between the administration and capacity building of the Trust, and the oversight of WHLPP projects.

The key deliverable over the period of this contract is to work collaboratively with the Trust to oversee the continued implementation and management of the eight WHLPP projects funded by the National Lottery Community Fund.
