About Gracemount Mansion Development Trust
Gracemount Mansion Development Trust (GMDT) was established in 2022 to manage the community asset transfer of Gracemount Mansion House and grounds from the City of Edinburgh Council to conserve and renovate the category B listed Mansion, re-establishing the site as a thriving community hub. GMDT is a charity registered with OSCR (SCO052155).
Gracemount Mansion House sits within the heart of Gracemount community and has the potential to re-establish a much-needed community-based centre rooted in a historic building.
The Gracemount project is at an early stage and we are looking for a project manager who will play a significant role in bringing this project to life, coordinating and managing the development work to reopen part of the Mansion and grounds on a meanwhile basis, until future funding can be raised to undertake the much needed development work to reopen all the building and grounds.
The successful candidate, will be primarily responsible for coordinating the project team, managing the delivery of the contractors in line with timescales and budget, engaging with key stakeholders and the local community, project progress and outcomes reporting, contributing to essential fundraising needs and generally supporting the work of Gracemount Mansion Development Trust.
