Voluntary Board Members Wanted

Castlemilk | Craigdale Housing Association Ltd

Closing date: Friday 13th June 2025 at 12 noon

Would you like to make a difference to people and our community with your skills and experience as a Voluntary Board Member? Then come and join Craigdale Housing Association.

Craigdale Housing Association is a registered Scottish Charity and Social Landlord based in Castlemilk. We are a small but mighty housing association with 407 properties in management.

Our Regulatory Status is Compliant.  We are committed to delivering quality and affordable homes with excellent customer service - improving homes, lives and communities. The Board is responsible for running the Association’s affairs and plays an important role in developing our community. It provides strategic leadership, sets objectives, exercises scrutiny and monitors and evaluates the organisation’s business in order to deliver continued improvements for our customers.

Role Description

We are looking for volunteers to join our Board. The Board, which leads our organisation, meets monthly. Training and support will be provided where needed.  

If you are committed to excellence in the provision of housing and want to play an important and rewarding role in a successful and ambitious charitable organisation, we would like to hear from you.  We wish to recruit new Board Members and are keen to hear from people with any skills, knowledge and experience in any of the following areas: 

    • Financial Management 
    • Human Resource Management
    • Development
    • Senior Officer expertise

We are particularly looking for any of our current tenants who feel that they would like to be involved in the decision-making process of the organisation and make a difference in their community. Above all, we need people who are passionate about providing excellent affordable homes and services for our community.

In the first instance, most successful applicants will join the Board as co-optees, until formal election is confirmed by the Membership at the AGM in September. Board Members are expected to attend ten evening meetings in the year and our annual planning and review meetings. Board meetings are held in person with the option of attending virtually.

Although this is an un-paid voluntary position, Board Members are reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses.

Interested?
