Job Description

 

The National Trust for Scotland is seeking new Trustees to join its Board from this September. Our Trustees play a vital role in guiding the organisation, and together their collective expertise reflects the breadth and diversity of the Trust’s work.

This year, we are particularly keen to hear from candidates with legal expertise. If you are a qualified solicitor or advocate with practical experience in areas relevant to the Trust, such as charity law, property, or commercial contracts, we would warmly welcome your application.

With major projects underway across our properties and as we look ahead to our Centenary in 2031, this is an exciting time to contribute to shaping the future of Scotland’s most treasured places.

Joining our Board offers a unique opportunity to influence the stewardship and protection of our nation’s heritage. We encourage applications from across our diverse membership and from individuals at all stages in their careers. If you share our commitment to Scotland’s natural, cultural and built heritage, we would be delighted to hear from you.

Full details on how to apply are available at www.nts.org.uk/elections.
Applications close at noon on 15 April 2026.
