Who We Are
Victim Support Scotland (VSS) provides support and information to people affected by crime and campaigns for victim and witness rights. Regardless of whether a crime has been reported, or when it happened, our services are free, confidential, and tailored to individuals’ needs.
Our vision is that people affected by crime – victims, witnesses, and their families – are treated with dignity and respect and are at the heart of the justice in Scotland. We put victims and witnesses at the heart of everything we do so they are heard, have improved health and well-being, feel safer, more secure, and informed and that we are an effective organisation, that makes a lasting difference. Our mission at Victim Support Scotland is to ensure that those affected by crime receive high quality support that will help them recover from their experiences. We aim to do this by adhering to our own organisational values: Organisational Values
- Victims Are at the Heart of Everything We Do
- We Care
- We Work with Intent
- We Are Ambitious
- We Persevere
Everything we do is driven by our dedication to supporting and empowering victims and witnesses, so they have improved health and well-being, feel safer, more secure, and informed. We are an effective organisation that makes a lasting difference to the people we support, and these values are reflected in the behaviours expected of all staff and volunteers.

Job Purpose & Context
As JustRight Scotland continues to mature as a nationally significant human rights organisation, the CEO will lead the next phase of development—delivering our current Paving Routes to Justice strategy and preparing for our next beyond 2029, strengthening organisational sustainability, establishing a more visible and impactful policy presence, and scaling impact.
The CEO of JustRight Scotland is the organisation’s strategic lead, with oversight of our four centres of legal excellence and our policy, communications and participation work. The CEO is responsible for leading implementation of the organisational strategy to deliver JustRight Scotland’s mission to use the law to defend and extend people’s rights in Scotland. Reporting to the Board of Trustees, the CEO is the accountable officer for the charity, responsible for strategic planning and financial sustainability. The CEO is the primary link between the organisation’s committed staff team and the Board.
The CEO is an ambassador for JustRight Scotland. As a strategic leader in the Human Rights sector, the CEO will represent JustRight Scotland at senior levels across civil society and government. They will build and sustain strategic relationships to influence policy and systems change, and to build the profile and reputation of the organisation in Scotland, the UK and internationally.
JustRight Scotland operates in a dual structure of SCIO and LLP, which requires collaborative governance between senior leaders to ensure alignment across these structures. The organisation operates a distributed leadership model in which the Senior Executive Team, comprising the CEO, the Chief Operating Officer and the two Legal Directors (who are also the LLP Partners), share authority and responsibility for senior leadership of the organisation. This is intended to ensure wellbeing, innovation and adaptive capacity at leadership level, aligned with shared values and strategy. The CEO will therefore work closely with the Legal Directors, building on their significant expertise, ensuring a clear and consistent organisational voice.
This is a unique opportunity to lead one of Scotland’s most influential human rights organisations at a pivotal stage in its journey. We are seeking an inspiring, strategic and values-driven leader who can build on JustRight Scotland’s strong foundations and help shape the future of rights-based change.
We would be especially interested in hearing from candidates who have:
A strong understanding of human rights law, principles and practice, as well as the lived experience of people in Scotland, alongside credibility as a leader within the charity and/or human rights sector.
An understanding of how law, policy and lived experience interact to drive social change.
Experience of working in partnership with people with lived experience to help influence and shape strategic direction.
An understanding of the current challenges facing the charity and human rights sectors, and the approaches required to support long-term organisational sustainability.
