THE former chief executive of Scottish Business in the Community (SBC) has been promoted to a new role with Business in the Community, the Prince’s Responsible Business Network.
Jane Wood, who has held a number of senior positions within the charity and was most recently its managing director for Scotland, will take on the newly created role of executive director of membership and the nations.
She said: “I am delighted to have been appointed to the role of executive director of Membership and the Nations and look forward to the challenges this will bring. The role will allow me to maintain close links with the team in Scotland, as well as extended responsibility for Wales and Northern Ireland.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
