Vacancy Details

The Chief Executive provides strategic, operational, and inspirational leadership to ensure Avenue fulfils its charitable mission. Working closely with the Board of Trustees, whilst also fulfilling the role of Company Secretary, the postholder will drive organisational strategy, enhance Avenue’s profile, build a high performing team, and ensure strong governance, accountability, and long term sustainability for maximum positive impact

Avenue provides a safe and supportive space for children and families across Aberdeen and North East Scotland who are experiencing separation, family conflict and relationship breakdown.  When times get tough, we offer inclusive and holistic support to help them find a way forward which is right for them.

For over 70 years Avenue has been providing mental health and relationship support across the Northeast.  We are an independent charity but also proud to be part of the wider Relationship Scotland network, a 21 strong membership organisation, which facilitates a national presence throughout the country and provides a platform from which to influence government, policy makers and the wider sector.
As Chief Executive, you will provide strategic leadership to a committed and talented team, working closely with our Trustees and supporters. You will help Avenue continue to be here for people right across Grampian.

If you are an inspiring leader, who is passionate about making a meaningful difference to people’s lives, we would be delighted to hear from you.  Together we can continue to make a positive difference to people living in the region that they will carry with them for the rest of their lives.
