Since 1784, The Royal Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland (RHASS) has been the respected standard-bearer for farming and rural industry in Scotland. With c. 15,000 members, its key remit is to promote Scotland's land-based and allied businesses. A registered charity, the Society plays a pivotal role in the creation of a better understanding of the management of Scotland's land and rural resources.

RHASS is now looking to recruit a Fundraising and Partnerships Manager to maximise the generation of funds for RHASS and implement successful strategies for the various areas of the organisation. The role will establish and develop relationships with key stakeholders to raise the profile of RHASS and therefore attract funding opportunities. The F&P Manager will be responsible for coordinating all fundraising activity and will support major projects including the Royal Highland Show and the Royal Highland Education Trust.

We are looking for applications from experienced fundraisers who can demonstrate past success in building effective relationships with funders, trusts, foundations, lottery distributors and similar bodies. The successful candidate will be dynamic, proactive and forward thinking and have an empathy with the organisations goals and the wider agricultural sector. As a member of the Management Team, you will also be expected to contribute to long-term strategic planning and as such you should be comfortable and capable in this area.
