Jobs

It’s easy to be inspired by your surroundings in the Scottish Borders. Stunning rural landscapes provide an idyllic backdrop to a quality of life offer that’s second to none. But look more closely, and you’ll find that there is a lot more going on.

Our proximity to the key hubs of Edinburgh and Newcastle means we are incredibly well-connected. But it also places us at the fulcrum of three ambitious regional growth programmes: The South of Scotland Economic Partnership; The Edinburgh South East Scotland City Deal; and The Borderlands Partnership.

We are hugely ambitious for what this means to our communities, and we will look to our new Chief Executive to play a central role in maximising these opportunities.

The Borders is a place of immense potential – we want to see it flourish.

That’s why we are looking for someone who can represent and advocate for the council on the regional and national stage; and an organisational leader who can build from within – supporting and developing staff to excel, and building our capacity to deliver the best for our residents.
