Edinburgh, United Kingdom Poppyscotland Full time

Poppyscotland is at the forefront of delivery of support to Scotland’s Armed Forces and veterans and their dependants across Scotland. A considerable amount of the funding for this comes from funds raised by the annual Scottish Poppy Appeal, as well as from other year-round fundraising activities.

We are looking for a proactive professional to help increase the profile and understanding of the work of Poppyscotland. The successful applicant will achieve this by developing and implementing our established learning and educational programme across all levels of education as well as the youth sector.

An understanding of the Scottish education system is essential together with experience of developing relationships across a wide range of external stakeholders. Experience of managing projects to completion within budget and deadlines is also essential.

A military background or good knowledge of the military would be beneficial, but is not essential. Some flexibility with hours is required. A full driving licence is essential.
