    The Trustees of the Adam Smith Global Foundation wish to recruit a dynamic Heritage Centre Manager. This is a highly varied opportunity for you to enhance and build upon your office, operational management, and project development skills, and to be part of the centre's exciting future.

    The foundation is based in The Adam Smith Heritage Centre, Kirkcaldy, in an impressively renovated Category C-listed building, endeavouring to retain the fabric features of the structure from its earliest existence. The upper floor is utilised as office accommodation, while the ground floor is designated as the Adam Smith Exhibition with access leading to the Adam Smith Garden. They promote an accessible and inclusive approach to historical heritage and seek to deepen people's sense of wellbeing, belonging and pride in place through learning and appreciation of the life of Adam Smith inviting all to explore, enjoy and feel part of it.
