Deveron Projects is a socially-engaged art organisation based in Huntly, a rural town in north-east Scotland, for 30 years. Our work builds deep and meaningful collaboration between artists, communities and places, through the process of making art.

As a Trustee you will be an ambassador, advisor and cheerleader for our work and for the team. You will bring your experience and expertise to help us work through challenges, realise our strategies and manage the charity well. We are looking for Trustees who are ready to get stuck in to explore, deliberate and experiment with us, towards our aims. We need people who can be responsive when the team needs support, who want to learn with us and are open to sharing their knowledge, experience and skills in collaborative and open-minded ways.

Trustees are an essential part of Deveron Projects. As a Trustee you will hold collective responsibility for ensuring that the statutory purposes of the organisation are fulfilled, that the staff team is supported and that the use of resources qualifies an appropriate use of public funds in line with our constitution.

Just now, we are particularly looking for people with experience of:

- Alternative and transformational governance models.
- Buildings management and strategy, including capital development.
- Arts practice in the UK and/or internationally.
- Organisational leadership, business planning and strategic development.
- Finance management.

If you have experience beyond these areas and are interested in becoming a Trustee, we'd still love to hear from you as we recruit on a rolling basis.

We are particularly keen to receive applications from people of the global majority, LGBTQIA+ people, disabled, neurodivergent and working class people, and people with caring responsibilities. These lived experiences and identities are underrepresented in our sector and have less access to spaces of decision making in our local communities.
