Role

Culbokie Community Trust (CCT) is seeking an experienced, motivated and community minded Business Development Officer to lead the development and launch of The Space, a new 100m² multi purpose building in the heart of Culbokie on the Black Isle designed for both business and community use.

This is an exciting opportunity to help shape a new community asset, from pre-opening planning through to successful operation and long-term sustainability.  

The post is funded until end March 2029. In year 1 you will work closely with the CCT Project Management Group during construction to ensure everything is ready for the building's opening. You will engage with health, care, business, environmental, and third‑sector organisations to assess local needs, uncover new opportunities, and create essential operational partnerships.

In years two and three, you will focus on consolidating services, enhancing community engagement and tenant relationships, establishing a volunteer user group, strengthening income through effective occupancy and yield management, embedding social and environmental values in The Space’s operations, refining marketing strategies, and planning for sustainable, volunteer-led management.

Why Join Us?

You’ll play a key role in creating a vibrant, financially sustainable community facility that supports local services, enterprise and wellbeing. This role offers the chance to see a project through from concept to delivery, and the opportunity to make a lasting impact in a rural community. For more information on CCT see our website www.culbokiect.org.
