Huntly Development Trust (HDT) is an ambitious, active community anchor organisation serving the town of Huntly, Aberdeenshire and its wider rural catchment. We undertake a range of initiatives to make our community a better place to live, work and visit, both for now and the future.

One of our key projects since 2014 has been development of Greenmyres, a 63-acre (25 hectare) former hill farm, into a vibrant asset providing all kinds of benefit to our community and visitors alike. Over recent years, with the support of several funders, we have been developing family-friendly, introductory-level outdoor adventure facilities at Greenmyres, alongside making improvements to site biodiversity and delivering activities for all in our community, especially young people.

HDT is now seeking a Greenmyres Business and Operations Manager to help us make the most of what this unique site has to offer. The successful candidate will be responsible for all aspects of current Greenmyres operations, as well as leading the planning and delivery of future site developments. This will ensure that Greenmyres delivers maximum benefit for a range of users, offers opportunities for (social) enterprise of all kinds and generates income for future delivery and reinvestment.

This is an exciting time to join us. We have ambitious plans for the future, and we are looking for a dynamic, values-driven leader who can guide our organisation through its next chapter of growth and impact. As CEO, you will play a pivotal role in shaping strategy, ensuring financial sustainability, and fostering a positive culture that empowers staff, volunteers, and partners.

The successful candidate will bring:

• A strong commitment to social impact and community engagement.

• Proven leadership experience, including governance and financial oversight.

• The ability to build partnerships and inspire stakeholders. Resilience, adaptability, and a collaborative approach
