We work in three areas - advocacy, capacity building and collaboration - underpinned by research and analysis to inform our work to support third sector organisations and the communities they serve.

The role will also provide targeted support for volunteers facing barriers, including those in recovery, with mental health challenges, disabilities, or learning difficulties. It will support volunteers in achieving recognised awards, such as the Saltire Award or the King’s Award for Volunteering.

Teamwork & Organisational Contribution

• Work proactively as part of a small team, supporting colleagues across programming, events, and operations.
• Assist during busy periods and organisational ‘pinch points’ — such as festivals, major broadcasts, and community events — ensuring volunteer support remains strong during key delivery times.

Community & Partnership Engagement

• Build and maintain relationships with local organisations, schools, and community groups to expand volunteering pathways.
• Support outreach to adults and young people in recovery, those with complex needs, and other marginalised groups.

Join the official charity of NHS Highland in the new role of Grants Officer

Are you passionate about making a difference through effective grant-making? This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in supporting NHS Highland’s official charity, helping to fund projects that improve experiences for patients, staff, and communities across the Highlands.

About the Role

We are looking for a motivated and detail-oriented Grants Officer to join NHS Highland’s charity team, supporting the work of the Highland Health Board Endowment Fund Charity, SC016791. The charity exists to enhance the physical and mental health of patients, social care service users, NHS Highland staff, and the wider community by funding projects that make a lasting impact.

As Grants Officer, you will be the main point of contact for grant enquiries, providing advice and guidance to a wide range of stakeholders but working primarily with internal applicants from within the NHS Highland workforce. You will oversee the full grant-making process, from initial enquiry and assessment, through to award, monitoring, and evaluation, ensuring that funding decisions are fair, transparent, and deliver maximum benefit.

You will support the presentation of applications to the Charity Committee when needed, as well as supporting robust financial reporting and compliance with NHS Highland policies and OSCR regulations.

This is a varied and rewarding role where you’ll help shape the delivery of impactful charitable projects across NHS Highland.

What we are looking for

We’re seeking someone with:

• Demonstrable, relevant experience in grant-making and project management, preferably within a charitable or public sector setting.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to advise, train, and support applicants from a wide range of backgrounds and to present effectively to committees and groups. You will have highly developed written communication skills and will confidently manage situations where applicants are unsuccessful, requiring resilience, diplomacy, and the ability to decline requests with professionalism and tact.
• Excellent analytical and organisational abilities, with a meticulous eye for detail and the capacity to manage competing priorities.
• Confidence in financial processes, including monitoring budgets, preparing reports, and ensuring compliance with statutory and governance requirements.
• IT proficiency, particularly in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint) and ideally experience with grant management or CRM systems. The skills and knowledge to provide meaningful input to quality and process improvement tasks is vital.
• A proactive and flexible approach, able to work both independently and as part of a team, with a strong sense of personal accountability.

This role will suit someone who enjoys balancing detail with big-picture impact, who can combine sound governance with compassion, and who is motivated by helping charitable funds achieve their greatest potential for our NHS and the communities we serve.

This role is based within the NHS Highland region, with the office base at Assynt House, Inverness. Hybrid working is supported, though you will be expected to regularly attend the office and face-to-face meetings at Assynt House and other NHS Highland sites as required.
