Bòrd na Gàidhlig restructuring continues
Bòrd na Gàidhlig's management shake up will continue next week with the advertising next week of five new posts.
(Gaelic version)
The move follows the appointment in June this year of an interim senior support team (ISST) to help the bord implement the National Plan for Gaelic and to supervise planned changes in its structure and operations.
This has now led to the establishment of a new structure with some of the posts and personnel already in place. Rosemary Ward, formerly Education Director will be the new Director for Education and Learning. Two other Directorships (Leasachaidhean), for Gaelic Usage and Finance & Corporate Services, will be amongst the five jobs being advertised. The others will be two Education Officer posts and an Office Supervisor.
Confirming the changes, Arthur Cormack, Chair of the Brd said: "The Interim Support Team has worked in great detail to enable the organisation to offer a better and more efficient service to other Gaelic organisations and the Gaelic community. Current staff have been undergoing a job-matching exercise which has seen some of them who have been with the Brd for some time undertake new responsibilities. I am pleased that this part of the process has now been satisfactorily concluded. It is important now that we find people to undertake the two Directorships being advertised with appropriate skills and experience to take us forward and to meet the challenge the Minister for Gaelic has set us of creating a new generation of Gaelic speakers."
The Brd has also confirmed that the post of Ceannard (Chief Executive) will be advertised at the start of 2010. There will be a degree of flexibility within the allocation of work locations, depending on the needs and operation of the organisation. It is possible therefore that some of the posts within the new Brd structure need not be based in Inverness.
Mr Cormack said: "I remain confident that what we are putting in place will support the organisation and sustain continuous improvement in its operations and working practices already evidenced in the past 12 months. We recently had a meeting of senior staff from all the Gaelic organisations and it was refreshing and uplifting to hear their views on the way forward. There is a collective will to succeed and to deliver on our core objectives and I am delighted that we are now gathering pace with the restructuring and that we will deliver on the shared objectives we have with the Scottish Government."
The ISST team will be in place at Brd na Gidhlig until the new structure is complete and all posts filled. Full details of the new posts including job descriptions will be available on the Brd na Gidhlig website wwww.bord-na-gaidhlig.org.uk from the end of next week, or from the Bord na Gidhlig office in Inverness.
