The impact of vision loss is huge. But with the right support, people with vision loss can gain the skills to remain independent and active in their communities – to thrive. That’s why we’re here.
For 230 years, Sight Scotland and Sight Scotland Veterans has been supporting people impacted by vision loss. We believe we play an important role in continually shifting the conversation around sight loss, and contributing to achieving a fair, equitable society. Over the years, we’ve seen a positive shift in expectations, with individuals and communities increasingly empowered to live lives the way they choose, free of discrimination.
Reporting to the Director of Technology and working closely with other members of the Senior Leadership Team, we are seeking a Head of Technology Change to lead the Technology Change team and to deliver successful digital transformation across Sight Scotland and Sight Scotland Veterans. The Technology Directorate plays a vital role in supporting our charitable mission by leveraging technology to enable efficient operations, enhance service delivery, and drive innovation. This role focuses on understanding the organisation’s needs, designing solutions, and enabling the effective adoption of technology to support our charitable mission.
This role requires a highly capable leader with a strong track record in building and managing a high-performing technology team. We are looking for an individual who excels at aligning technology initiatives with organisational goals and brings excellent stakeholder engagement and communication skills. Your approach will be grounded in accessibility standards, security best practices, and inclusive design, and you will have demonstrated success in collaborating with external providers to deliver effective technology solutions. You’ll play a key role in leading change, encouraging user adoption of new technologies, and collaborating with external partners to deliver impactful solutions. If you're passionate about delivering measurable outcomes and creating meaningful, user-focused technology solutions, we want to hear from you.
