Fife Sports and Leisure Trust - Board Vacancy

An opportunity currently exists for an enthusiastic and suitably experienced individual to join the Board of Fife Sports and Leisure Trust.

The Trust is a company limited by guarantee and governed by Articles of Association with Fife Council as the sole member of the company. The Trust also has charitable status under the Charities and Trustees Investment Act 2005.

Founded in 2008, the Trust is the region’s leading sports and leisure services provider with a vision for “Making a difference by delivering opportunities for people in Fife to become more active”. The Trust is responsible for the management and operation of 14 sports and leisure facilities on behalf of Fife Council and since its launch has successfully grown attendance rates year-on-year, engaging with local communities to increase physical activity participation thanks to well-managed facilities and providing affordable access to sports and leisure opportunities for all ages and abilities.

A Board of Directors govern the Trust and provide strategic guidance and support to the Chief Executive and the Executive Management Team. The Board is responsible for the overall supervision and control of the activities of the Trust and the strategic direction and priorities that it sets for the organisation. In addition, the Board is responsible for compliance with the legal and regulatory frameworks within which the Trust operates.

We are keen to appoint an individual to the Board who has a strong business background with excellent financial oversight. Submissions of interest are also invited from individuals with relevant professional expertise and experience who feel they can make a positive contribution to FSLT’s vision and mission of “Growing the Business, Improving the Customer Experience and Making a Difference”.

If you think you have the commitment and experience to help deliver the Trust’s ambitious plans then we want to hear from you by contacting Ed Watson, Chief Executive Officer at [email protected]
