Meet the Team

Through innovative leadership, expert consultancy and considered analysis and reporting, Community Justice Scotland’s board and staff work closely together to promote world-leading community justice solutions throughout Scotland.

We have four operational services that work together: Insights and Intelligence, Learning and Engagement (local), National Engagement and Communications. They are supported by a Corporate Services Team.

Our board members

Our governing board consists of chair and board members with relevant experience of the broader community justice field. Recruitment of Community Justice Scotland Board members is the responsibility of the Scottish Government under the public appointments process regulated by the Ethical Standards Commissioner.
