The Enterprise Officer will work with the Chief Executive and the wider team to develop and implement a marketing plan that increases income through the efficient delivery and strategic long-term growth of Green Hive’s various lines of commercial trade, meeting specific targets for each of the next two years (April 2024-March 2026) and using both in-person and online channels to facilitate profitable business-to-business and business-to-consumer interactions.

Context: Launched in 2015, Green Hive (formally Nairn River Enterprise) is a community hub and a charity that specialises in volunteer-led projects and other initiatives, helping to conserve, restore and sustainably develop the natural habitats and public amenities of Nairn and Nairnshire, while cultivating skills and employability and improving outcomes for residents and visitors. Over the last decade the organisation has developed a suite of core business operations that focus on reducing pollution and waste, recycling and re-using discarded man-made materials and promoting more positive interactions with the local environment. It has done this while gradually consolidating its own financial position in support of longer-term organisational sustainability and growth. Recent investment from the Postcode Innovation Trust takes us to the next level, and the recruitment of a dedicated marketing and sales specialist will be pivotal to our ongoing plans. In November 2022 Green Hive took ownership of Seaman’s Hall in the Fishertown precinct of Nairn; over the last year it has been developing public programmes aimed at re-establishing this important historic building as a community hub. We are also formulating capital development plans for the facility. The Enterprise Officer will support these activities, playing a key role in the implementation and continuing evolution of our five-year strategic business plan.
