- Ensure strong engagement with Scottish Government and Scottish Ministers on the SCTS strategy, government policy developments and future funding needs.
- Have responsibility for leading the organisation (circa 1,900 employees across 60 locations) to deliver all the services which the SCTS provides and to drive transformational change and innovation which will improve services in the future.
- Work closely with the Lord President and senior judiciary ensuring they are fully supported in their statutory duties. You will also maintain strong working relationships with the judicial representative groups on all operational issues.
- As a senior leader within the justice system, be a member of the Justice Board, with responsibility for developing and overseeing delivery of elements of the Scottish Government’s Vision for Justice in Scotland.
