The charity is looking for an experienced individual with the vision, drive and enthusiasm, to provide board level strategic oversight and further leadership as ANGUSalive develops and grows into its third full year of operations.

At ANGUSalive, we welcome applications from all and appoint positions to our organisation based on merit; we are committed to promoting diversity through our organisation.”
ANGUSalive would particularly welcome interest from those with experience in change management, business strategy, commercial development, marketing, legal, financial, facilities development, health and safety, income generation, volunteering, arts and culture or heritage.

ANGUSalive’s annual report for 2016/17 captures their first full year in operation and introduces the breadth of culture, sport and leisure services they deliver, with key highlights documented in a selection of case studies.
