Glengarry Community Development Trust is a community-led charity that manages land for the benefit of local people and visitors. In 2023 we began constructing six off-grid forest cabins to create sustainable income to support the Development Trust’s community and environmental objectives. We have now reached the exciting stage of opening the business and recruiting for this key role, which will be central to its success. Glengarry Forest Cabins is scheduled to open in spring 2026.
Glengarry Community Development Trust is looking for an experienced person with knowledge of basic building maintenance and operations, and basic timber construction methods who is able to work as part of a new team. We are looking for a practical, organised and skilled person to help run our forest cabins, amenity building and general site.
Purpose of the Post
Our new Builder and Facilities Manager will work with the staff team, including the Accommodation Manager, Development Manager, Administrator, and Finance Manager to ensure that a guest centred approach is taken to operating the business. The role will be responsible for overarching facilities management, overseeing maintenance of six off-grid wooden cabins, associated out-buildings, the amenity building, and the wider site. The role will also be responsible for ongoing development of the site, including construction of new woodsheds, a bin store, and other infrastructure required to operate Glengarry Forest Cabins. The post holder will develop maintenance manuals, and ensure accurate records are kept. They will take responsibility for key areas of operations such as the heating and will need a good understanding of statutory and legal requirements in relation to facilities management of this nature. The business is operational seven days per week through most of the year, and the post holder will be required to ensure the buildings remain operational throughout.
