Ambition and Innovation Needed to Support the Third Sector

1 July 2025 By EVOC Comms Leave a Comment

by Bruce Crawford (CEO)


Edinburgh’s Third Sector organisations are facing considerable challenges at the present time, and they need a strong EVOC that can provide leadership, guidance and support.

To help us do that, we need people to join our Board who share our values and want to make a difference.

We need innovative and experienced people who have ambition for the Third Sector in Edinburgh.

And we need people who understand the fiscal and political landscapes in Edinburgh and Scotland.

We are keen to hear from people with professional expertise in a number of different areas to build on the skills, knowledge and experience of our current Board of Directors. This includes experience of commerce and income generation, financial management, HR, law, marketing and communications (B2B) and risk management.

If that sounds like you and you would be interested in learning more about EVOC or what is involved in being a Director on our Board, please get in touch and we will arrange a call with one of our Directors: chiefexec@evoc.org.uk

You can find out more about the Director and Convenor roles and responsibilities here.
