Head of Production
Reports To: MD
Salary: Negotiable based on experience + Relocation Package
Hours: 40 hours per week, Monday-Friday
Location – Isle of Mull
This is a very rare opportunity to move to one of the most beautiful and desirable locations in Scotland. Mull is a tourist hot spot with good reason. But as well as the natural beauty and peace, it is also a busy and thriving community. It’s a fantastic place to bring up kids. Doors are left unlocked, there is no crime to speak of everyone knowing each other (mostly!). Whilst we are on an island, we are not remote – we have all the services you might want, including excellent schools, health care and local amenities. This could be a life-changing opportunity for the right individual.
