VISITABERDEENSHIRE is looking to recruit dynamic business leaders to join its Board of Directors to help drive a new tourism strategy for the north-east of Scotland.
Last week VisitAberdeenshire launched the Framework for Growth, commissioned by VisitAberdeenshire on behalf of the tourism sector. The Framework for Growth assessed the achievements of the 2018 destination strategy and identified future trends and opportunities through to 2030.

Led by Chair Claire Bruce, the Board provides counsel to the VisitAberdeenshire leadership team. New recruits will have the opportunity to support VisitAberdeenshire as it collaborates with stakeholders, local businesses and the wider to community to deliver the tourism strategy for the region.
Mrs Bruce said: “The publication of the Framework for Growth signposts a bold direction for tourism in the north-east of Scotland, and VisitAberdeenshire’s board requires enthusiastic and dynamic people to support these aspirations.”
“The Board at VisitAberdeenshire is made up of a talented group of individuals from varying sectors, and we welcome applications from candidates with a strong interest in tourism, but not necessarily working directly in the sector.”
“Candidates will be champions for the North-east and will nurture positive and effective working relationships with all key stakeholders of VisitAberdeenshire both internal and external, locally and nationally.”
“We are specifically looking for individuals with knowledge or experience of the food and drink sector, sport and outdoor pursuits, events and activities, transport, corporate compliance, commercial development and information technology. We’d also encourage those who have not been Board members before to apply.”
“It’s an exciting time to be joining the VisitAberdeenshire Board as we move forward with a new vision for tourism in the north-east of Scotland.”
