Head of Development & Enterprise (Glasgow)

part-time 4 day week, salary £50,000 (pro-rated to £40,000 for a 4 day working week)

Wasps (Workshop & Artists Studio Provision Scotland Limited) is a registered charity founded to provide secure, stable workspace to the artists and makers based across Scotland.

As Scotland's national provider of creative spaces, Wasps has raised over £30m, invested in buildings for the benefit of the cultural sector in Scotland. Wasps owns approximately two thirds of its property portfolio, providing additional security for its tenants.

In its development capacity, Wasps contributes a positive role to the regeneration of communities across Scotland. As part of its remit, Wasps redevelops historic yet redundant buildings, converting them into ideal and much needed facilities for artists, creators, creative industries, social enterprises and charities, generating employment and improving local economies.

Wasps is now looking to recruit a dynamic and self motivated Head of Development & Enterprise.

Leading our Development and Enterprise department, you will be in the engine room of the charity's income generation; you will have a demonstrable record of planning and generating income - including trading and fundraising - from a range of sources and have an affiliation with the aims and objectives of Wasps and understand its cultural and social value. This role will focus on developing trading activities, securing grant funding, forming partnerships, and generating income to support the charitable mission.

The Head of Development & Enterprise will play a critical role in the delivery of Wasps' charitable purpose and partnerships, as well as working with our CEO, consultants and Board of Trustees on major income generation initiatives. You will be comfortable communicating with a variety of stakeholders, understanding their aims and translating them into actionable results on behalf of the organisation. You will be excited to lead fundraising initiatives for capital, programmes and environmental projects.
