This is an opportunity to support Penumbra's services to be the very best they can be, and to develop innovative new ways to help people live full lives and improve mental wellbeing.

Working as part of a small team, you’ll be involved in a wide range of work from creating new resources, analysing data and working with teams to learn and develop their practice.

You’ll have a good understanding of the principles and practice of supporting mental health recovery and be confident about supporting others to do so. You'll be creative and also have an eye for detail. You’ll also be able to analyse a range of information to identify what is working well, what could be improved and what can be built in to new ways of doing things. Most importantly though, you’ll be passionate about people’s right to recovery and building a society where everyone can flourish.

To ensure effective role modelling, our Project needs a mix of male and female staff to help our young people live lives characterised by safe and healthy choices, introducing them to the difference Jesus makes.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and pastorally sensitive Christian with experience of working with young people in a school and/or community context, with good communication skills and able to work in a team and with other organisations.

Carers Link is a busy local organisation that supports families in East Dunbartonshire. There is an experienced team of 14 staff & over 50 volunteers who support those that look after family or friends.

During the winter of 19/20, we had extensively consulted about our Vision and Strategic Priorities. We had just started worked on turning this into a new 5-year Strategic Plan when the pandemic struck! We are therefore seeking additional Board Members to help in the overseeing of our strategic development and direction and, afterwards, in the achievement of our aims.

What are we looking for?

We are keen to hear from people in particular with backgrounds in:

• Strategic Planning
• Digital Strategy
• Finance Management
• Business Skills
• Fundraising
• Legal (Community Care Law in particular)

A knowledge of the voluntary, health or social work sectors would be an advantage. We are also keen to hear from anyone who has personal caring experience, either now or in the past.

Of course, given the pandemic, you should be comfortable using e-mail and Zoom - or at least willing to get comfortable. Technical support will be provided if needed.

What will you be doing?

Board Meetings are currently held every 2 months although we may be moving to quarterly. There are also occasional subgroup or development meetings in-between. However additional discussion/updates are done throughout the year by e-mail.

Pre-pandemic, meetings were held at our office in Milngavie, however now of course we are using Zoom! Should life ever go back to normal, our offices are just 5 minutes’ walk from the railway station with direct rail links to Glasgow and Edinburgh.

Trustees are appointed for a term of 3 years and are eligible to serve a further 3-year term, after which they must retire from the board.

Could you be one of our new Trustees?

The UK’s leading string orchestra, Scottish Ensemble (SE) is renowned across the world for ambitious cross-artform productions which attract new audiences to the classical music genre, and invigorate the repertoire with theatrical, visually-stimulating story-telling. Collaborations with composers (including Anna Meredith and Valgeir Sigurdsson), theatre companies Vanishing Point and Untitled Projects, Swedish contemporary dance company Andersson Dance, visual artist Toby Paterson and many others have seen the company captivate audiences and generate both public and critical acclaim across Scotland, as well as through regular performances in London and across the globe. Since 2018 SE has performed at the Kennedy Center, Washington D.C; Barbican Centre, London; Shanghai International Arts Festival; and in numerous festivals and venues across Europe.

SE’s work on stage is supported by a broad-ranging programme of creative learning and community engagement, which has included partnerships with Maggie’s Centres, networks supporting refugees and New Scots, and schools across Scotland.

Having just completed its 50th anniversary season, SE is now looking ahead to continued innovation and model development, despite the difficult backdrop faced by the arts sector today.

SE draws on expertise from a highly-engaged, collaborative board to further the organisation’s strategic position and reputation. From a strong financial footing, and as a Creative Scotland Regularly Funded Organisation, SE is able to make ambitious plans to ensure it retains its position as a leader in the sector. The appointment of two new Trustees will help SE on this path.

The Trustees are particularly keen to hear from candidates with experience in the digital/technology sectors, public policy (particularly in the areas of arts and culture; health and wellbeing; and equalities, diversity and inclusion), and fundraising/philanthropy.

Local, national and international interest is invited. An interest in classical music and/or the performing arts and previous board-level experience is required. Time served within innovation-focused, evolving organisations is particularly relevant.

This is a non-remunerated role, though meeting and travel expenses are covered.
