Head of Centre with FSC Scotland

“Imagine a job where you can use your management experience and environmental knowledge every day; helping to shape the minds of the new generation; a job where you work as part of a team in the great outdoors, inspiring others and developing passions for the future. A senior leadership position with the FSC, managing a diverse team of educators, hospitality and maintenance staff, gives you a role with both challenge and opportunity and a chance to start young people on a journey of discovery that can last a lifetime. FSC are looking for people with a curiosity for the world around us, a passion for the natural history of the British Isles and an ability to enthuse and inspire others.  

Kindrogan Field Centre is in rural Perthshire, close to the southern limit of the Cairngorms National Park, yet close enough to explore the burgeoning attractions of Dundee with its exciting waterfront developments including the stunning new V & A Museum of Design. Kindrogan is in an area rich in wildlife and with tremendous opportunities for a range of outdoor activities. There are pine martens and red squirrels in the grounds, and stunning hillwalking, rock climbing and winter mountaineering within easy reach of the centre. The ski area of Glenshee is a 15-minute drive away. A well maintained bungalow would be available on site, for a monthly fee, which would ideally suit a couple or family.”
