Charles Rennie Mackintosh Society – Director – Glasgow

The Charles Rennie Mackintosh Society is an independent, non-profit making charity, established in 1973 to promote and encourage appreciation of the Scottish architect and designer, Charles Rennie Mackintosh and his contemporaries. The Society has over 700 members across the world with affiliate groups arranging local events and an associate group in Port Vendres, France. The Headquarters is the Category A listed Queen’s Cross Church designed by CRM and is a tourist attraction and event venue.

The present Director retires in February 2026, and the Trustees wish to appoint a successor. This is a full-time role.

The Director is responsible for leading and developing the Society in addition to the operation and care of Mackintosh Queen’s Cross. The post-holder will provide leadership, co-ordination and motivation across all activities to develop and deliver the strategic plans and events agreed by the Society’s Trustees.

An informed and enthusiastic interest in Mackintosh and his circle is highly desirable, but of central importance are evidence of leadership, management, advocacy, financial experience, fundraising and communication skills, together with an understanding of the heritage and charitable sectors.

Applicants are invited to submit their CV and a personal statement of not more than 500 words by email to admin@crmsociety.com by Friday 19 September. The personal statement should articulate how the applicant’s experience meets the requirements in the job description.
