The Royal Scottish Country Dance Society

Top job! Chief Operating Officer

  • The Royal Scottish Country Dance Society
  • Full time
  • Circa £45,000
  • Edinburgh (Home working and occasional travel included)
  • Closing 13th February 2023

Growing a vibrant worldwide community of Scottish Dance and Music.

The Royal Scottish Country Dance Society (RSCDS) exists to promote Scottish dancing globally as a fun, friendly, inclusive and healthy activity which can be enjoyed by anyone, anywhere. RSCDS deliver their mission to today’s generation by running activities and annual events throughout the UK and further afield, all with a focus on Scottish Country Dance.

With an extensive network of RSCDS branches and affiliated groups already working at local level to organise and deliver Scottish Country Dance courses, ceilidhs and workshops in their communities, this fantastic charity is able to reach huge numbers of dancers around the world. RSCDS work on everything from implementing the overall strategy of the charity to the successful delivery of the intensive four-week Summer School in St Andrews. They work in partnership with a board of trustees and three committees who come from a variety of backgrounds, all working voluntarily.

The opportunity has now arisen for a new Chief Operating Officer (COO) to join the passionate team at RSCDS. Reporting directly to the Chair and the Management Board, the COO will work to ensure smooth and efficient running of the RSCDS operations. You will work to support the Management Board and Committees in the delivery of the RSCDS strategy. The COO will play a critical role in ensuring there is a positive organisational culture where all staff feel valued by volunteers and colleagues. Essentially, the COO will be in post to manage the staff function and to ensure the successful delivery of major events. You will have the confidence to take authority when making decisions on behalf of RSCDS and be the face and voice of the team. The COO will work to increase membership and engage the current members. This is a varied role, and no two days will be the same. There is a great opportunity here to design a fast and responding organisation.

We are looking for a strong leader who is able to engage with members and influence decision making. To be successful in this role, you may be someone with a background in office management, marketing, HR, operations or volunteer management. Although this would be beneficial, you do not need to have experience within the charity sector to be successful in this role. If you feel that you are able to manage people and volunteers whilst being able to influence through the art of negotiation,

This could be the perfect role for you. This is a wonderful and unique opportunity to take RSCDS to a great place. If you have a passion for dance, this is advantageous.

  • Scotland
  • Closing 16th February 2023

The HR Booth is supporting our client The Ferret Media Ltd in recruiting for a Business Manager.

The Ferret Media Ltd is an award-winning multimedia cooperative based in Scotland producing independent, not-for-profit, investigative journalism that holds power to account and empowers its readers. Formed in 2015 to provide a sustainable platform for original investigative journalists, we are looking for a part-time (3 days per week) business manager to partner with our co-editors, ensure the smooth running of the business and to support our ongoing development.

About the role

The business manager role looks after many of the non-editorial duties required to run The Ferret, partnering with the co-editors and the board on elements such as fund development and co-publishing agreements. This includes:

  • BUSINESS PLAN & BUDGET - Lead the development of the business plan and budget, collaborating closely with the staff and board to agree a plan and track progress throughout the year.
  • FUNDING & OTHER INCOME GENERATION - Help identify funding opportunities and track progress on applications and responses. This could include completing grant applications or supporting journalists applying for project-specific funding, as well as identifying opportunities for board members to assist where useful. Assist in reporting for grants.
  • MEMBERSHIP - Initiate and lead membership recruitment campaigns and work with staff and board to deliver the AGM and other member events as needed. Support the organisation to develop a membership strategy that can be implemented across operations and editorial teams.
  • OPERATIONS - Manage contracts for co-publishing deals, ensure financial tasks like invoices and accountants are managed, and other administrative tasks as required.
  • COMMUNICATIONS - Act as a point of contact for non-editorial communications for the organisation, resolving queries directly or referring them to the appropriate part of the business as required. Collaborate with co-editors, operational lead, and social lead to streamline communications where possible.
  • MONTHLY & ANNUAL REPORTING - Work with operations and financial leads to ensure organisational performance reporting is tracked and shared with board and staff. This includes financials, membership, and reach and engagement of content.
  • BOARD SUPPORT - Support the board of directors, including the coordination and production of papers for discussion, occasionally attending/presenting to the board (4-6 times per year)

While The Ferret is non-hierarchical, each role in the organisation is supported by an assigned line manager, in this case the chair of the operations committee.

Person specification

Essential experience

  • Good understanding of the media landscape and passion for independent journalism.
  • Demonstrable experience managing projects and using influence to keep things on track.

Desirable experience

  • Experience developing membership growth and engagement strategies.
  • Experience supporting a voluntary board working in a related sector, such as media, non-profits, social enterprises or co-operatives.
  • Experience administering accounting and HR software.

Our Values

We are a value-driven organisation. We believe in transparency, we treasure accuracy and our journalism is non-partisan. Our new business manager will need to have a clear understanding of our culture, and a shared belief in the importance of what we are trying to do, and the way we are trying to do it.

In return we offer the chance to be part of a dynamic and driven organisation at a critical and exciting time in our development, with the potential to help shape the future of the media in Scotland.

Our Offer

This is a rolling freelance contract, for three days a week at a day rate of £135 per day (£35,100 pro-rata). The successful candidate will work as a contractor, with 18 days paid holidays, travel expenses and sick leave. The Ferret also provides an annual home working allowance.

The position is remote, though there is a community newsroom in Glasgow where team members can work. The team will meet in person in Scotland (usually Glasgow or Edinburgh) quarterly. Reasonable travel expenses for in-person meetings can be reimbursed. Team members must have permission to work in the UK as The Ferret cannot provide sponsorship.
