Join Glencraft as a Non-Executive Director
Glencraft is a unique social enterprise with a proud heritage of craftsmanship and social impact. Founded in Aberdeen in 1843, we have been creating luxury handcrafted mattresses in Scotland for over 180 years. Our commitment to quality has earned us a Royal Warrant, supplying four generations of the British Royal Family, and recognition in prestigious hotels such as Browns, The Balmoral and The Fife Arms.
At Glencraft, our Vision is of a society where everyone has the opportunity to develop through purposeful work. As a not-for-profit organisation, we provide meaningful employment and skills development for visually impaired and disadvantaged individuals, helping them achieve financial independence. This dedication to social mobility was recognised when Glencraft won the Queen’s Award for Enterprise in 2021.
Our handcrafted mattresses, made from the finest natural materials, are trusted by high-end hospitality clients and specialist customers such as offshore accommodation. Beyond luxury, we have secured major contracts, including supplying over 1,000 mattresses for the Caledonian Sleeper train service.
As we enter an exciting new phase, we are seeking Non-Executive Directors to help guide our future.
This is an opportunity to contribute to a business that blends luxury with purpose, sustaining a historic enterprise that transforms lives through meaningful employment. If you are passionate about business, social impact and sustainability, we invite you to help shape the next chapter of Glencraft’s legacy.
