Principal and Chief Executive

West College Scotland - Cross Campus Role: Clydebank, Paisley & Greenock

Full-time- 35 hours per week

Are you an exceptional leader ready to shape the future of tertiary education in Scotland? We are seeking a visionary, dynamic, and strategic leader to take on the role of Principal and Chief Executive at one of Scotland’s largest and most influential colleges.

This is a rare and exciting opportunity to work with our amazing team to drive transformation, innovation, and long-term sustainability, ensuring our college remains a leader in academic excellence, student success, and sector-wide impact.

About the Role

As Principal and Chief Executive, you will serve as the strategic leader and driving force behind the College’s continued growth and success. Reporting to the Board of Management, you will be responsible for:

  • Developing and delivering an ambitious vision that enhances the College’s position as an outstanding institution for students, staff, and employers.
  • Providing inspirational leadership, ensuring a high-performing, inclusive, and engaged workforce.
  • Driving financial sustainability by diversifying income streams, reducing reliance on government funding, and fostering strategic partnerships.
  • Enhancing the student experience, ensuring exceptional outcomes, employability, and well-being.
  • Strengthening stakeholder engagement with government, industry, policymakers, and communities to expand the College’s reach and impact.
  • Ensuring operational excellence, sound governance, and robust decision-making in a period of sector transformation.

This role is about more than just leadership—it is about legacy. You will shape not only the future of the College but also influence the evolution of tertiary education in Scotland.

What We’re Looking For

✔ Exceptional stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence and collaborate with government, industry, and community partners.

✔ A deep understanding of the Scottish tertiary education landscape, including its challenges and opportunities.

✔ An entrepreneurial mindset, with the ability to pioneer new initiatives and position the College as a leader in innovation and skills development.

✔ A values-driven approach, ensuring inclusivity, social mobility, and a thriving organisational culture.

What Success Looks Like

  • A thriving student community with outstanding retention, academic achievement, and employability outcomes.
  • A financially resilient and growing institution, with sustainable funding and diversified income streams.
  • A sector-leading workforce that feels empowered, engaged, and invested in the College’s future.
  • Strong and productive partnerships, increasing the College’s influence on regional and national economic priorities.
  • A culture of excellence, agility, and innovation, ensuring the College remains at the forefront of tertiary education.

Why Join Us?

This is an unparalleled opportunity to lead one of Scotland’s most significant colleges at a pivotal time for the sector.

Make a lasting impact – Shape the future of education, transforming lives and communities.

Be at the forefront of innovation – Lead bold new initiatives and redefine what tertiary education can achieve.
