Renfrewshire charity St Vincent’s Hospice has completed its top team with the appointment of Gillian Green as its new Director of Fundraising and Supporter Relations.
Gillian’s appointment completes the new line-up at St Vincent’s after the appointment of a new Chief Executive in April 2021 and the appointment of a new Director of Care and Quality in October 2021 when Susan McCallum joined the team after 17 years at Ayrshire Hospice.
With over 23 years of experience in the charity sector, Gillian began her fundraising career at Children’s Hospice Association Scotland (CHAS) in 1999 and during her time at CHAS developed her strategic and leadership skills, rising to the role of Head of Fundraising Operations. In 2019 she joined Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland (CHSS) where, as Assistant Director of Fundraising, she used innovative ideas to maximise fundraising opportunities.
CEO, Kirsteen Murray, said “It is an enormous pleasure to welcome Gillian to the team. Her extensive experience of fundraising in the hospice sector, combined with her deep commitment to developing long-term supporter and volunteer relationships, makes her the ideal person to develop the long-term sustainability of the hospice so that we are here to serve the communities of Renfrewshire and North Ayrshire for many years to come”.
Ends.
