Scottish Archery is the national governing body for Archery in Scotland. We strive to create an environment where everyone can reach their potential, whether as a competitor or in a volunteer role. This is an exciting time for Scottish Archery as we develop our new strategy for 2025-2029, with a focus on growth and retention.

We are delighted to open recruitment for a National Development Manager (NDM). The NDM will play a pivotal role in achieving against our strategic outcomes by working with staff, volunteers and partners, and will also be in a unique position to help shape the new strategy.

We recognise that to grow as a sport and an organisation we need to focus on continuing to strengthen the infrastructure to enable members to achieve and participate in a way that meets their needs and at the level they want to participate. Reviewing the archery journey will therefore be key.  Underpinning this will be to support and champion an environment where people want to stay involved in archery for life.

The NDM will have line management responsibilities for the Community Development Officer and the Club and Coaching Development Officer, ensuring that a holistic approach is taken to the development of archery in Scotland. The successful candidate will have an understanding and appreciation of the Changing Lives approach to sport and will support the team to champion this within the club and community environment.

This role will also be the organisational lead for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI), supporting the EDI subgroup to develop a refreshed EDI plan to deliver on the new Moving to Inclusion Framework.

In return for the above, we offer employee benefits such as flexible working, generous holidays and support with your professional development.

If you are an experienced leader who is passionate about the power of sport, we would love to hear from you.
