We provide support to third sector groups across Scotland and beyond and work with communities to build and sustain projects for the benefit of local people. We are a social enterprise ourselves. 100% of our profits are re-invested in supporting the further growth and development of voluntary and community organisations. Our Services and DivisionsOur focus is on developing sustainable communities through resilience using techniques including social enterprise, innovative fundraising and community empowerment. We have developed four cross-fertilising divisions. Our development team develops enterprise, communities and organisations including strategic thinking, market research, business planning, evaluations, organisational reviews, community plans and investment readiness. This division has a research element delivering research papers on subjects close to our ethos including community enterprise, asset transfer and community led regeneration. Our over-arching website has information about all our divisions, but this is a link directly to the work of the development team.We operate the first and biggest social enterprise strategic marketing and creative design and branding agency, called Bold. Now in its tenth year of development, its services include branding, design and print, web design and build and creative marketing strategy. We are a strategic part of the sustainable third sector. We were founding members of Social Enterprise Scotland, founding subscribers of the Voluntary Code for Social Enterprise and members of various national networks. We currently design and manage the social enterprise support map.As well as direct support, we try new things. We established a national on-line e-commerce site for social enterprises and are interested in how the digital space can develop the third sector. We currently operate a project called Creative Natives which changes the lives of young care leaves through creativity.The main office is in Livingston and we have offices in Glasgow and Edinburgh but work is across Scotland and beyond and are moving to a blended approach to work. The need for this RoleWe pride ourselves on our very strong reputation and the impact we have made and what we have learnt across Scotland over 30 years, but this is not well documented, articulated or communicated. One of the members of our Senior Management Team will have a responsibility for leading on a learning remit but will need help. We are therefore seeking someone with knowledge and experience to help us pull together our stories, our impact and our learning and communicate that across the sector in Scotland and beyond.At a time of growth, we have created this new post to capture and cascade impart and learning and to improve our profile sensitively and appropriately. We are looking for someone who loves stories of change, is an excellent communicator, is comfortable in the digital space but is also great with people, We believe that the wider sector in Scotland and beyond will not be aware of the depth of our work, and the value that is contained in communities and this needs to be addressed to benefit both ourselves and the Scottish third, community and social enterprise sectors. You will have a strong work ethic and a sensitivity to the third sector.
