We’re hiring: Head of Projects

We are seeking a Head of Projects to take on a lead role in delivering our ambitious ongoing community development work!

The newly created role combines management and direct project delivery work and would suit a candidate with relevant experience and a pro-active approach looking to take on a challenge in a unique, bustling and diverse community development environment. You’d join a strong established team with a track record of delivering ambitious capital projects, with the goal of ensuring the sustainable development of a small island community, making Tiree the best possible place to live, work and grow.

Our current projects include developing community housing solutions, supporting veterinary services in our predominantly crofting community, operating and further developing community-owned renewable generation, working towards community-led plans to adapt to climate change, and continuing to operate key services such as a local broadband network, tourism information service, light commercial business units and the community filling station.
