Director of Marketing, Communications and Information Services

Young Scot is looking for an ambitious and experienced Director of Marketing and Information to lead their national information, content, digital marketing, communications and platform strategy at a pivotal moment of transformation.

Organisation: Young Scot
Job title: Director of Marketing, Communications and Information Services
Contract: Full-time (35 hours per week).
Location: Hybrid working remotely and in office (Caledonian Exchange, 19A Canning Street, Edinburgh, EH3 8EG)
Closing date: 21 June, 2026
Salary: £56,870 to £60,805

This is a unique opportunity to shape how Scotland’s national youth information and citizenship charity reaches, informs and engages young people aged 11–26 in an increasingly fast-moving digital world. Central to the role will be Young Scot’s charitable mission, and the values that underpin everything Young Scot does. Working alongside the CEO and Senior Leadership Team, you’ll lead the strategic development of Young Scot’s information services, marketing activity, communications and branding, digital platforms and audience engagement approach, ensuring we remain relevant, trusted and innovative in how we serve young people across Scotland.

You’ll oversee the evolution of Young Scot’s digital ecosystem, including their website, app, membership and media communications and wider content infrastructure, ensuring these platforms are modern, scalable and future-ready.

This role requires a leader who is comfortable shaping strategy and delivering execution. You’ll bring experience leading teams, driving audience growth, overseeing digital products and translating emerging opportunities appropriately – including AI and new media behaviours – into practical organisational and societal advantage.

You’ll also play a central role in ensuring Young Scot continues to deliver high-quality commissioned campaigns, trusted information services and impactful engagement activity in partnership with the Scottish Government, public sector partners, commercial organisations and the wider youth sector.

If you’re a confident strategic leader, an innovative thinker, and someone excited by the opportunity to shape the future of youth information and engagement in Scotland, Young Scot would love to hear from you!
