Tiree Community Development Trust (known as “Urras Thiriodh”) are seeking a Head of Community Engagement to take on a lead role in delivering our community-focused services and engagement work in the beautiful and vibrant Inner Hebridean island of Tiree.

The newly created role combines management and direct service development and fundraising work and would suit a candidate with relevant experience and a pro-active approach looking to take on a challenge in a unique, bustling and diverse community development environment. Current key members of your team would include our Youth Activities Co-ordinator, Community Support Officer (working in an established partnership with CAB) and our Ranger. You’d join a strong established staff team with a track record of delivering vital community services, with the goal of ensuring the sustainable development of a small island community, making Tiree the best possible place to live, work and grow. The role involves working across our company group to support communications with key stakeholders, which includes supporting the use of Gaelic across our work and ensuring ongoing efforts to retain Gaelic as a living community language.

The role will play a key part in the ongoing delivery of our Community Development Plan.

You will form part of the senior leadership team supporting (and occasionally deputising for) the Chief Executive Officer, ultimately accountable to the Trust volunteer board of directors.
