inverness, United Kingdom Calman Trust Full time

The Calman Trust charity operates Café Artysans in Inverness city centre. Any funds generated by this social enterprise are used towards our charitable work with young people.

Café Artysans is a busy commercial food business, delivering a professional service that compares with mainstream outlets across the city. In addition to the 52-cover sit-in offer, the business comprises a busy catering and events service, takeaway service which is point of sale for an extended product range, and delivery of the catering service at the nearby Inverness Justice Centre. There is a loyal well established customer base for the whole Artysans offer, with visitors swelling the ranks through the year.

Currently we trade in two separate lines of business, our Café Artysans operation and the HasAnswers app and underlying platform. The latter extends the organisations charitable reach and impact through digital technology.

The Business Development Manager will be responsible for generating Café Artysans sales and new business. Ideally, they will also lead on sales of the HasAnswers app and underlying platform.
