The Eildon Group has built a strong reputation and risen to a position as one of Scotland’s leading Housing Associations. At the heart of our service is a deep commitment to excellence and the provision of high-quality, affordable homes, care and support services for the individuals and communities we serve.

Eildon are committed to eliminating fuel poverty whilst trying to ensure a just transition as we decarbonise our homes. The purpose of this role is to develop and implement a strategy to achieve our net-zero ambitions, access any applicable funding, and work with finance colleagues to provide prudent financial planning. Developing relationships with a range of existing stakeholders will be critical.
